A person's habit development starts from the time he was conceived in his mother's womb. Yet the molding of his totality depends upon the environment he lives in starting from the day of his birth up to his grown up years. Social, technological, spiritual, educational, and political forces shape up a person and from it the individual develops habits which he can normally keep on repeating all through his life. What a person grows up with is what he adopts, so it is important that he is exposed to an environment that deals only with proper habits if he wishes to live a life of good habits. Unfortunately, this ideal environment can hardly be maintained. Many of us wanted to free ourselves of the negative effects of bad habits (smoking, drinking, drug abuse, pornography, etc.) that we have picked up from the unfriendly sector of our environment.
Consider five simple points to attain good habits that will surely free you from mindless habits that pile on pounds:
1. Recognition. A person must first recognize that something is wrong with his habit and that he needs to fix the situation as soon as possible.
2. Acceptance. Nothing can take the place of honestly accepting the state a person is in. It is the key that opens the door of fixing the problem.
3. Research. Knowledge on how to go about the change you want is half price off the total expenses you are about to incur
.
4. Prepare and plan carefully. No soldier goes into a battle unprepared if he wish to conquer the enemy.
5. Persistence. This spells action, continued action, and being stubborn. Maintaining good habits and terminating the bad ones is not only waking up one morning decided to go through it and forget it the next day.
If you find the above too professional and backbreaking, try the emotional and never-been-divulged most efficient and effective option on how to live with only good habits: Do it for someone you love!
