Simple, easy, and fun are very different concepts and it's best not to mix them up. Physical, emotional, and mental energy are required to pull through these "simple" habits and behaviors, which makes these neither easy nor fun. We seek out advice and shortcuts so that we don't require as much energy to make these transformations. It's a sustained kind of energy to move away from ingrained habits or lifestyles. Pressures around you tend to keep you where you are (mentally, physically, and emotionally). I would say that even making a decision to change your life is out of the norm and requires a rare kind of commitment and energy. I think it all comes down to the fact that people don't like change. People associate comfort with consistency and conformity. Network effects compound this effect.
