Makes healthy easier
When you are trying to make changes, it is easier to hang out with people that have those habits. I have a girlfriend that that likes to dance. This is a habit I want to cultivate. So I told her, I would go whenever she goes. She is always actively looking for opportunities but now she knows she has a partner in crime. I go because I said I would and each time I have more fun.
Other ways this works
This works well when you are eating out with others. Watch what they order. It might surprise you. My healthy friend orders appetizers instead a main course for dinner. Then pace yourself with the person that eats the slowest. Notice what healthy people bring for snacks. This is a great way to try new things and pick up a new habit you like. Can you think of other ways to use this strategy?
So whom are you going to copy? What healthy choice will you make today? Let me know.
