How I Trained Myself To Stick To Any Good Habit in 21 Days How I Trained Myself To Stick To Any Good Habit in 21 Days Sticking to a habit feels harder than it should. Most of us start strong but give up after a few days — I’ve been there too. But this time, I decided to change that and trained myself to stick to any good habit in just 21 days. Here’s exactly how I did it so you can try it too. The First Thing - Remove All the Distractions Remove all the bad habits first. Stop scrolling reels, stop eating junk food. And try not to use social media unless it’s a part of your work. Remember, “When a man gets pleasure, he forgets his goals.” Being Bored is Better Than Scrolling Reels Studies show that embracing boredom actually helps your mental health and builds long-term thinking. Scrolling reels might entertain you for a moment, but it kills focus in the long run. If you want real growth and want to rise above, learn to sit with boredom. Plan Your Day Realistically...
Why Easy Doesn’t Count
What is happening nowadays? People are spending four hours on reels on average, but they don’t have thirty minutes to read a book, twenty minutes to go for a run, or two hours to work on a side business. The question is simple: in which direction are our priorities going?
You should dream big, never stop dreaming. Dreams are the seeds of greatness. But dreams alone don’t create results—you also need to work for them. Everybody wants money, muscles, and power. Yet, wanting doesn’t make anything real. Action does. God rewards action, not mere wishes. You won’t achieve anything significant by only imagining it.
Let me share a small story. I once saw a young man driving a luxury car his father had bought for him. He was happy, no doubt. But later, when that same man made his first income and gifted a small car to his father, the happiness on his face was ten times brighter. Why? Because true happiness is born from what you earn, not from what you’re simply given.
Easy Doesn’t Count
Remember this: easy doesn’t count. If something requires no effort, it carries no real value. That doesn’t mean you should just move bricks from one place to another to prove you’re working hard. What it means is—work smartly and efficiently. Use your brain, your skills, and your focus in the right direction.
The biggest trap today is instant pleasure. A notification, a reel, a dopamine hit—they steal your time, your focus, and eventually your life. Instant pleasure is the greatest enemy of men in the modern world. Avoid it. Because every moment you trade for short-term fun is a moment you lose forever in the long game.
Life is a survival game. Some games are won not by playing, but by refusing to play the wrong ones. You don’t have to compete in meaningless battles. Instead, save your energy for the real game—the one that matters to your future.
The Harder Path Is the Real Path
I know it’s easy to write motivational words like these, and it’s even easier to read them. But when it comes to applying them in real life, that’s where the challenge begins. Reading about discipline is simple—living disciplined every single day is a war. Talking about consistency sounds good—but showing up every day, even when you don’t feel like it, is what separates winners from dreamers.
Achieving any goal requires more than hope. It requires sweat, patience, and sacrifice. It demands mornings when you don’t hit snooze, nights when you stay focused while everyone else is distracted, and years of persistence when no one is clapping for you. That’s the reality behind every success story you admire.
Anything that is easy doesn’t count. Why? Because if it’s easy, everyone can do it, and if everyone can do it, it has no real value. What counts are the things that test you, the battles that break you and rebuild you stronger. The real happiness comes when you’ve worked for years, endured failures, sacrificed comfort, and then finally taste victory. That kind of happiness doesn’t fade. It stays with you for decades, because you know you earned it.
Final Words
So ask yourself today—are you chasing instant comfort, or are you building long-term success? Are you wasting hours on distractions, or investing them into something that will change your life? The answer to these questions will shape who you become in the next five, ten, or twenty years. Don’t let the modern world trick you into wasting your potential. Play the long game. Work smart, stay patient, and avoid the shortcuts. Because shortcuts only cut your future short.
