Kris Krohn here with REITV.
And today, we're talking about how long it takes to
break habits. We got some good ones,
we've got some bad ones and ultimately what is
it going to take for you to break them
habits and set the right ones.
So how long does it really take to break
a habit? how many licks does it take to
get to the center of a lollipop border?
twisty poper what do they call those
things? anyways, habits. There's a lot of
new science out that that says that it
takes a certain amount of time, a certain
number of tries, a certain type of effort,
and you know what? I think that's
bullcrap. I think the difference honestly
comes down to trying and commitment. Are
you just interested in breaking a habit?
or are you committed? Because, the moment
you move from interested to
commitment, guess what? You actually get
there. I remember growing up my dad would
have me pull weeds sometimes for hours
on end and I always tried to get away
with doing as little work as possible.
when my three older brothers left home, I
remember when he asked me to read the
entire hillside and so I went and I
pulled all the big ones, I pulled all the
little ones, and then when my dad came to
check my work I'd done ninety percent of
the work. But you know his words? he said
"son that's a half-assed job" pardon my
french but it was this point that said
"no, no, no, dad that's fifty percent. I did
ninety percent" and the point is this,
anything less than a hundred percent
isn't going to get where you want to be.
Anything less than one hundred percent
is being interested. You really want to
change your habits you want to know how
much time it takes? boom! it takes an
instant. Because, it comes down to
commitment. Breaking habits is about
breaking beliefs because every habit,
every action, first started where? Either
for something that we said, or something
that we thought. And know that destiny is
always formed from thoughts, forming into
words, forming into actions. If you want
to change your habits, then what I'm
going to do right now is I'm going to
give you four powerful steps that
I, if I were you, I would ritualize and I we do
on a regular basis to ultimately step
into awareness.
Awareness is how you
transform your life and awareness starts
with this idea that, "I don't know what I
don't know, so I've got to tap-in and
figure out what that is. Here are the
four steps that I want you to focus on.
The first one is to create this daily
routine of asking. What don't I know? What
is the limiting belief behind this habit?
what is the limiting belief that holds
me back in life? and if you can invite
yourself to get yourself grounded,
quiet minded
breathe deeply, ask, and trust what comes up.
Then it is amazing how you can open
the storehouses of wisdom to just to
open their floodgates and share exactly
what you need to do. I call this
"intuition". So every morning, I'm going to
get proactive and i'm going to do my
preventive medicine by starting with
this question on a grounded state.
Do that with me right now. Close your
eyes if you can. Take a deep breath.
what is the number one limiting belief
holding me back?
huh...
I'm not enough.
Is that what came up for you too? It could
be one of thousands of things. A limiting
belief will present itself. Once you know
that you have one, you got to question it
that's step two. Ask for it, question it.
well, shoot! Does it really benefit me?
does it serve me to actually bow down in
my mind will be worshipping this idea
that I'm not enough?
hocus-pocus that's
stupid! of course it doesn't. I'm not
gonna, I'm not gonna bow down and
worship that idea. That's just downright
ridiculous. Shine conscious light on some
of these ideas and all of sudden, this says,
"whoa, this is a great idea" "well this is a
really stupid idea" We want to take all
the erroneous ideas and we want to kick
those out of the equation. So step two,
question it. What's the cost of it? is it
serving you? Okay, the third thing that I
want you to do is change it! Ask, question,
change. If not being enough is creating
the patterns and habits of things I
don't want of my life then, what habits
do I want to form? Well based on a belief
that says what?
"I am enough"
Friends,
this is a conscious process. This might be the
first time in this moment that you are I
have ever had this idea. I'm choosing to
be enough. Look, 37 years on this planet
and actually starting to make a really
good choice because my original choice
set long time ago, is set the default
called "never disturb me", "don't bother me",
"do not disturb" and now you're doing that.
You're going to stir the waters with
this new idea.
So the third step is,
you've got to change it. And then the
fourth and final step. Guess what? You got
to claim it!
it's not now, just enough to
have an awareness of what needs to
change, but you need to claim it. How do
you do that? well claim it by owning it.
That means that you don't just say it.
You got to what?
You got to feel it.
Yes, yes, yes, for some of you private
people, get over it! You gotta get into
with those feelings. Those are your clues
when you are in or out of alignment you
don't have to live life with negative
feelings they're just a clue that you've
got a belief that's off kilter that's
producing habits that you don't want.
So, how do you claim it? Well, for me? once a
while I get my warrior energy on, I
stand on top my chair and I declare as
loud as I can. Other times I just sit in
my nice quiet meditative state and allow
myself to feel how it feels to be enough.
I feel peace, I feel calm, I feel content,
allow yourself to feel those
feelings. And that will allow you to help
claim these. Now, those are the four basic
steps I do them every morning.
In fact, moment I go out of alignment any time
during the day, moment, I feel any kind of
negative emotion come up, I know that
it's festering and feeding some habit I
don't want. So step one, I'm going to do
is what? I'm just going to ask what is it?
because I'm conscious in this moment if I
listen, trust I'm going to get something.
Step two, I'm going to question it.
Well does that, does that serve me?
No.
The...
the answers always no.
Step 3,
change it.
What would serve me better?
you can use the
same I made a bad choice, I'm making
a good choice now.
And step four, claim it.
Own it.
And that's the basic steps of
doing belief breakthrough that you use
to alter your habits. I have a much more
extensive process on belief breakthrough,
and when people come to actually our
three-day limitless, right here, belief
breakthrough event, we spend three days,
creating amazing fun and challenging
environments that if you're designed to
bring up your habits, and your limiting
beliefs, your false beliefs, that are
getting in your way, we take you to some
really powerful ways of changing those
on the spot. You're in the driver's seat
in-control all the time. But I'm telling
you, just start even right now today with
these four basic steps.
Ask, question,
change, and claim
you know, some studies will tell you
that if you do something long enough, do
for three weeks, or 21 days, or whatever,
that it's scientifically proven to help
break the pattern. Listen, a pattern in
hindsight when it really breaks, happens
in a moment. If you want to create the
most powerful habit breaking moments,
I wanna invite you to come and join our
three day event limitless there's a link
