Keep it Up

Forming new habits take some time, exactly how long is very personal. According to a study by European Journal of Social Psychology it can vary between 18 and 244 days for a person to adopt a new habit and make it an automatic part of your daily life. As it varies so much between different people it can be really difficult to know how long should you keep working on a habit to make it stick. I'd also assume that the adaption time is not only dependent on the person, but also on the habit and what is the motivation to acquire the new habit.

How can I know how long does it take for me to adopt new habits? When do I know I have adopted a new habit? That is something that I don't have an answer to, but I hope I'll be able to find the answer while working with this blog.
