It’s not until you really start to feel the difference for yourself and realize how much better it is that you REALLY start to order more salads and less deep fried stuff. Which also means, of course, that you have to start doing it, practicing it and being aware of the difference it makes before it becomes a real habit. Positive thinking works the same way.
