"A bad habit never disappears
miraculously, it's an undo-it-yourself project."
~Abigail "Dear Abby" Van Buren
Good
morning! Raise your hand if you have ever discovered a bad habit
and wanted it gone now!
Examples:
* Eating too much
* Eating unhealthy foods
* Stress
* Negativity
* Negative self-talk
* Add your own
In today's world, we often look for instant gratitude. When we want
change, we want it now! We seek a magic wand to make it "all better."
The self-help and self-improvement industry is booming as we seek
solution after solution to ease the areas where there is discomfort in
our lives.
When we try to hunt down an instant solution to a problem that has
grown over time, we might find ourselves frustrated or doubting our
ability. We don't build these bad habits in a day, and nor do remove
them in a day. Instead, as Abigail VanBuren writes, "It's an
undo-it-yourself project." We choose a course of action and take daily
steps until we walk out of the bad habit and into the new habit.
Your Turn: Choose a habit that needs some work.
Spend twenty minutes today brainstorming small steps you can take to
move yourself away from the bad habit and toward the good habit you
desire to put in its place.
Today's Affirmation: I can accomplish anything I set
my mind to accomplish.
