Willpower isn't the magic solution for achieving health goals that many believe it to be. It's a limited resource that eventually becomes depleted, leaving us without a backup plan when our determination runs out.

• Willpower is defined as control exerted to do something or restrain impulses
• According to psychological science, willpower is a limited resource capable of being depleted
• Career demands, stress, poor sleep, knowledge gaps, and hormonal shifts all sabotage health goals
• Your environment—including the people around you, your schedule, home setup, and mindset—significantly impacts success
• Start with just 1-2 small changes rather than overwhelming yourself with a complete lifestyle overhaul
• Habit stack by pairing new healthy behaviors with established daily routines
• Pay attention to how new habits make you feel to build motivation through positive feedback
• Sustainable health happens when you design systems that make healthy choices easier than unhealthy ones

If you're tired of relying on willpower alone, book a free consultation call with the link below to learn how personalized coaching can help you create sustainable health systems.

Thank you so much for listening!
