自己列的新年计划一定要完成

Why is it so hard to stick with a good habit? Alexcis Spencer Lopez, a life coach and therapist based in Arizona, US, says we are going about our New Year’s resolutions all wrong. Writing on news website Quartz, she says we are always trying to change the symptoms — whether it is losing weight or quitting smoking – instead of addressing the heart of the problem. Lopez says we need to resolve to make better resolutions.

为什么坚持一个好习惯如此之难？阿勒克斯•斯宾塞•洛佩兹是美国亚利桑那州的治疗师兼人生导师，她认为我们对新年计划的看法大错特错。在Quartz网站上，她写道：不论是减肥还是戒烟，我们总是致力于改变表面现象，却并没有解决问题的本质。她认为，我们需要一份更好的计划表。

Look inside yourself

审视自我

We all want to overcome unhealthy habits. According to Lopez, unhealthy habits are what we do to distract from uncomfortable emotions that we don’t know how to deal with.

人人都想战胜坏习惯。而在洛佩兹看来，我们养成坏习惯，只是为了逃避无法解决的情感不适。

Resolving to stop the distracting behavior without first finding out what’s motivating it is dooming yourself to failure, she says. Lopez says you should resolve to reconnect with your emotional self to find out what’s driving you so that you can make a conscious decision to change your behavior.
