2、to make a New Years resolution this year. Their top vows: to lose weight, quit smoking and exercise more. But consider this: if hard-core addicts can break bad habits-some by moderating, not just quitting-theres still hope for you. Whether your goal for this year is to get fit or tame your drinking,

3、 experts say theres a lot you can learn from people who have successfully moderated their habits to help keep you off the resolution merry-go-round.1. Dont Kid Yourself“The most important thing is to be honest with yourself,“ says Howard Josepher, the president of Ex- ponents Inc., an organization t

4、hat provides support and educational services to people with substance-mis-use issues. “You need to know the difference between enjoying yourself and self-medicating. Its not that self-medicating is necessarily bad-but you should give yourself parameters. If you are adhering to them, OK. If not, you

5、 need to check yourself.“Successful moderators decide in advance how much is too much-and stick to their limit, no matter what. Have a cookie a day if thats what youve deemed acceptable. But if you cheat by having “just one more,“ know that you are only cheating yourself and worsening the problem, e

6、xperts say. The point is to learn how to hold yourself accountable.For those who are concerned in particular about drinking a free, research-based online tool called Drinkers Checkup can help you determine whether you are drinking at unhealthy levels, and what to do if you are.2. Quit Cold Turkey-Te

7、mporarily“Theoretically, there are very good reasons to take a break from a behavior, totally,“ says Reid Hes- ter, director of research at Behavior Therapy Associates, explaining -that an initial period of complete ab- stinence (节制) can make it easier for people to moderate behavior by eliminating

8、the habitual, automatic aspect of the unwanted activity.Take a cue from the self-help group Moderation Management (MM), which advises problem drinkers to abstain completely for a month before attempting moderate drinking. If you cant achieve a month of ab- stinence, the thinking goes, successful mod

9、eration is unlikely.The best way to stay on course is frequent self-monitoring; use as many behavior-modification tools, support groups and programs as you can. In October, Hester and colleagues published a randomized con- trolled trial in the Journal of Substance Abuse Treatment comparing heavy dri

10、nkers who used MMs web- site to help them quit with those who used the MM site plus another online tool that teaches behavior- control tactics and helps chart drinking. While both groups significantly reduced their drinking and alcohol- related problems, the group that used the additional tool had m

11、ore days abstinent and drank less when they drank.3. Do What the Buddhist Would DoAlan Marlatt, director of the Addictive Behaviors Research Center at the University of Washington, studies “mindfulness-based relapse (重新染上) prevention,“ which uses meditation (冥想) and other ideas from Buddhist teachin

12、gs to help people break bad habits.“Between stimulus and response, theres a space, and in that space is our power to choose our re- sponse, and in our response lies our growth and freedom,“ says Marlatt, quoting author and Holocaust survivor Victor Frankl. Marlatt says, “Mindfulness gets you into th

13、at space.“Being mindful may involve traditional meditation, in which you sit quietly and observe your thoughts and breathing without judgment. But here, it is also used to focus awareness on thoughts and feelings that lead to unwanted behavior. Simply recognizing the triggers to relapse can help you

14、 choose not to give into them. “When theres a fork in the road, strong desire is pulling you one way. Well, whats the other way? You have to look down the other road and see where it takes you. Then you have a choice, instead of being on autopilot,“ says Marlatt.One tactic he recommends for resistin

15、g those desires is called “urge-surfing.“ It involves being mindful of the fact that desire is like a wave-it rises to a peak, then falls. This happens whether you yield to the urge or not, though most people mistakenly think their desire will escalate endlessly unless they give in. In. fact, yieldi

16、ng to desire only reinforces them-resisting, in contrast, reinforces resistance. Marlatt advises watching your urge, noting its peak and “surfing“ it, rather than allowing it to wipe you out.Another trick is to recognize that willpower is like a muscle-it gets stronger with appropriate use but ultim

17、ately weakens if overloaded. Thats why Hester recommends setting short-term goals that are “moder- ately difficult, realistic, concrete and measurable.“ As with weight-lifting, starting at a level that is chal- lenging but not overwhelming can provide a sense of achievement and success-which can giv

18、e you the drive to take on bigger challenges.4. Dont Try to Scare Yourself StraightResearch shows that in the long term, the pleasure of victory is a better incentive than the agony of defeat. “Punishment is a poor motivator,“ says Hester. “It sets people up for failure. If all you do is pun- ishing

19、 yourself for failure, you wont stay motivated to change for very long.“Instead, reward yourself for sticking to your limits and focus on the benefits of changing. For in- stance, if your goal is to drink less or lose weight, treat yourself to something you want-a new book or DVD, say-each time you

20、successfully resist a tempting dessert or achieve a goal, like a month of absti- nence. Success tends to give birth to greater success. If you do slip back into old patterns, avoid blame. “Dont say, I cant do it, “ says Marlatt. “People make mistakes. If you keep working at it, you will get better o

21、ver time. Thats what the research shows.“For some people, trying to moderate bad habits is not achievable or takes more effort than abstaining altogether-as the philosopher St. Augustine put it, “Complete abstinence is easier than perfect modera- tion.“ Recognizing this by trying and failing can als

22、o be a critical step toward behavior change.5. Get Better FriendsConsciously and unconsciously, people tend to imitate those around them. Thats why the latest research shows that things like happiness, smoking quitting and obesity can spread like a infectious disease through social networks So surro

23、und yourself with friends who can also be role models. “Make sure that people you hang out with are people who look and act the way you would like to. Social imitation is the easiest form not only of flattery but of self-improvement,“ says Stanton Peele, author of Seven, Tools to Beat Addiction.Soci

24、al support, is critical to changing all kinds of behavior. Good friends can not only help you through slip-ups but also help keep your New Years resolutions from taking over your Life. Rather than obsessing about what you shouldnt be doing, think about things you should, experts say. The distraction

25、 will help you curb bad habits. “Focus on your higher goals and positive activities, things that both sustain you and fill your life,“ says Peele. If you regularly engage in meaningful activities that give you pleasure- whether its visiting friends, picking up a hobby, taking a class or doing volunt
