5 Keys to Developing Healthy Habits
Almost every year since we moved to Texas in 2011, the North Dakota State University Bison football team has made it to the NCAA Division 1 championship game. This game is held at the Toyota Stadium in Frisco, TX. The great thing about this is that every time the Bison make it to the game, my relatives come down to Texas to watch. It’s like a special gift from God every time family comes to visit.
Several years ago, when my family was here for the football game, we went to their hotel to spend some time together. While we were talking, one of my aunts mentioned she flossed her teeth every day. I shouldn’t have been as surprised as I was, but to be honest, I thought flossing was something dentists told you to do, but no one ever really did.
That conversation lit a spark in my mind. I was going to start flossing. I was going to make it a habit. The next time I went to the dentist, I wasn’t going to have to lie! Ha! All it took was for someone I respected to share with me a habit they had, and I have flossed my teeth every day since.
I wish every habit was that easy to form.
The hard part about forming a habit isn’t the actual habit; it is changing your mindset. You see before I started flossing, I didn’t really believe it was that important. I didn’t see it was necessary. I don’t think I even thought it was possible to floss every day. But my aunt changed my mindset.
