Happiness by Walt Whitman

Happiness,

not in another place but this place…

not for another hour,

but this hour…

this morning?

I certainly hope so.

I know that I am!

How to Replace Bad Habits with Good Ones:

How to Replace Bad Habits with Good Ones:
The Science of “Habit Management”

Few things are more difficult than kicking bad habits or developing more positive ones. But it is definitely worth the effort. Bad habits like smoking, overeating or self-criticism shorten lives and lead to underachievement, and unsuccessful attempts to change them lower self-esteem.

In contrast, good habits create a kind of “success auto-pilot,” leading to greater accomplishment with less thought and less effort.

So how do you best eliminate bad habits and create good ones? Research from the new field of “positive psychology” – the scientific study of happy, successful people – points to at least four proven techniques for successful habit management.

HOW MOSES GOT THE 10 COMMANDMENTS

God went to the Arabs and said, “I have Commandments for you that will make
your lives better.
The Arabs asked, “What are Commandments?”
And the Lord said, “They are rules for living.”
“Can you give us an example?”
“Thou shall not kill.”
“Not kill?
We’re not interested.”

So He went to the Blacks and said, “I have Commandments.”
The Blacks wanted an example, and the Lord said,
“Honor thy Father and Mother.”
“Father? We don’t know who our fathers are.”
We’re not interested.

Then He went to the Mexicans and said, “I have Commandments.”
The Mexicans also wanted an example, and the Lord said
“Thou shall not steal.”
“Not steal?
We’re not interested.”

Then He went to the French and said, “I have Commandments.”
The French too wanted an example and the Lord said,
“Thou shall not commit adultery.”
“Not commit adultery?
We’re not interested.”

Finally, He went to the Jews and said, “I have Commandments.”
“Commandments?”They said,
“How much are they?”
“They’re free.”
“We’ll take 10.”

There, that ought to offend just about everybody!

Old Habits Don’t Die. They Hibernate.

Old Habits Don’t Die. They Hibernate.

New research suggests that old habits

don’t die at all � at best, they hibernate.

We’ve all experienced this first-hand.

You seemingly kick a bad habit like smoking,

drinking, or overeating.

Months or even years go by.

The old habit seems safely behind you,

and you can resist those things that

tempted you so irresistibly in the past.

Habits

Bad habits are like a comfortable bed,

easy to get into,

but hard to get out of.

Habits by Epictetus

Whenever you are angry,

be assured that it is not only a present evil,

but that you have increased a habit.

Epictetus

Habits by Colin Powell

 

 

 

If you are going to achieve excellence in big things,

you develop the habit in little matters.

Excellence is not an exception, it is a prevailing attitude.

Winning Is Habit by Vince Lombardi

Winning is not a sometime thing;

it’s an all time thing.

You don’t win once in a while,

you don’t do things right once in a while,

you do them right all the time.

Winning is habit.

Unfortunately, so is losing.

Vince Lombardi
