Steps to Break Bad Habits
1) Study Your Bad Habits.
Breaking a bad habit is not
easy. Unless you truly
understand the root of the
problem, you won’t be able to
devise a strategy to get rid of it.
Take a cold hard look at your
bad habit. Following are some
questions you should seriously
consider answering:
* When did you acquire the
habit?
* Why is it that you have the
habit? / How did you acquire
the habit?
* What is the need that it
fulfills?
* How bad do you want to get
rid of the habit?
* How would you benefit
from getting rid of the habit?
2) Prepare a Plan of Action.
Now that you understand the
problem, you can go to the next
stage of finding a solution.
There are many ways to get rid
of bad habits. Be creative. It’s
not enough to tell yourself that
you should stop doing
something. You have to
understand that the battle to
get rid of a bad habit is a battle
that will oppose you against
your own self. How do you win
against yourself? The only way
to win this battle is to have
enough conviction to see things
through and to be able to see
beyond the tricks that your
mind will play. You need to
plan ahead and you need to set
objective boundaries ahead of
time. The moment you decide
to get rid of a bad habit is the
moment that you are the most
objective.
Use this moment of lucidity and
resolve to your advantage to
set the rules of the game. Keep
to the rules. Don’t let your
brain trick you into making
