One of the biggest challenges, I think, with anything related to changing your life, really, because whatever your life is in the moment is an accumulation of habits in different aspects, whether it's your physical, emotional, mental, financial, and they take oftentimes months and if not years.
The life that you're living right now is usually the byproduct of years of behavior.
