Behaviour change
4 steps to behaviour change
Set a SMART goal: Decide clearly what you want to achieve. (For example, "I want to be physically active five days a week for a total 150 minutes.")
Build commitment to the goal: Reflect on why your goal matters and how confident you feel. This helps you stay on track. (For example, "I want to be healthy, I want to have more energy and feel better…")
Make a plan: Break your goal into small, realistic steps. (For example, "I will walk on Monday, Wednesday and Saturday after dinner.")
Monitor and problem-solve: Monitor your progress. If something isn’t working, make changes to get back on track. (For example, you didn’t eat vegetables because you had none at home. Solution: Keep frozen or canned vegetables on hand.)
