A change in bad habits leads to a change in life.

After awhile, you start realizing that change is good for you. It's healthy.

A shift is necessary toward lifestyles less geared to environmental damaging consumption patterns.

Make it easier to do things that increase your wellbeing before you have to make a choice because a lot of our choices, though they seem small in the moment, have a big effect.

If you want to eat well and be healthy, there are so many different options now, and you can make a big difference even if it's committing to just one thing.

Sometimes, counter-intuitively, it's easier to make a major change than a minor change. When a habit is changing very gradually, we may lose interest, give way under stress, or dismiss the change as insignificant. There's an excitement and an energy that comes from a big transformation, and that helps to create a habit.

People try to change too much at once and it becomes overwhelming, and they end up falling off the program. So gradually changing bad habits makes much more of a difference than trying to change them all at once.

An enormous piece of the cost in our health care system today is driven by lifestyle decisions, and so we all have an effort to do better.

Change can be frightening, and the temptation is often to resist it. But change almost always provides opportunities - to learn new things, to rethink tired processes, and to improve the way we work.
