The year 2020 ends in 18 days, and while we'd rather forget it, some of us will remember it for helping us switch habits we had long outgrown

Life Coach Farzana Suri
Besides baking banana bread and making Dalgona coffee, there are quite a few things that 2020 has taught us. In more serious ways, it has been about the realisation that some habits are hard to change but once you have experienced a better alternative, adapting is possible. Life Coach Farzana Suri advises, "Let's accept that any change is never going to be easy. So, you have to love yourself enough to keep going with the change and begin with tiny steps. Find your motivation and keep it simple. It takes anywhere between 21 to 90 days for a new habit to become a part of your system. Remember that you will falter and that's okay—going back to it is important, so keep a keep a scorecard on the refrigerator to remind you of your progress."
