Popular belief is that it takes 21 days to form a new habit. But what does the evidence say? Our new systematic review of all published research shows that forming a new habit takes between 60-100 days, with large individual variability. https://t.co/YGX06j8J6B

Thank u 2 @victoriauninews and @iHealthSportVU executive committee for the supervision recognition today. There is nothing more rewarding than seeing ECRs n HDR students achieve what they may not have thought possible. Being the first 2 call them DOCTOR is an amazing feeling!

Last Monday, I presented at the VU Sport that Inspires gathering where we shared our inspiring sport research. A Pecha Kucha presentation - 20 slides x 20 sec each for a total of 6 min 40 sec. Stressful b4 but oddly rewarding. Have u presented in this format? Thoughts about it?

Check out our latest in @ConversationEDU, where @CMesagno and I discuss the value of self-compassionate versus self-critical responding. Despair after four years of pressure: how do Olympians deal with disappointment? https://t.co/7eXwkv17ft

Athletes can spend four years preparing for an Olympic or Paralympic games. For those who don’t achieve their goals, the disappointment can be crushing.

Pretty proud that my first @ConversationEDU article is with one of the leading experts in self-compassion research @CC_Walton Have been wanting 2 collaborate 4 a long time. Thanks also 2 @N_Seewang 4 allowing us 2 share this. @victoriauninews @iHealthSportVU
Must be incredibly difficult to come to terms with not achieving your goals after four years of preparation. So what do Olympic athletes do when they 'fail'? Via @CMesagno and @CC_Walton
