Habits
I hate habits. I think the reason for this is the fact that I have so many bad habits and so few good ones. At least, that's the way it seems to me. I also can't ever seem to develop the habits that I want to. Exercising for example. I'm really good at sticking to a workout schedule for about a week, but beyond that just seems impossible. It drives me crazy. The same goes with eating habits. Why is it that humans are creatures of habit? What's the reason? There must be some purpose behind it. And it's not just me. Nearly everyone I know is fighting the same battle against habits that I am, and no body seems to be making any head way. I think that the time has come for us to sit down and have a meeting with all the habits and choose the ones that we will keep and tell the rest of them to take a hike. However, since it seems rather unlikely that anything like this will ever happen, I'm going to need to come up with a new plan. I figure that right now I have twice as many bad habits as good ones. I know that I'm never going to be perfect in this life, so for now I think that I settle with having as many good habits as bad ones and once I get to that point I'll work on having twice as many good habits ans bad ones. Finally, if I'm not dead yet, I'll focus on getting rid of bad habits all together. So, I'm off to begin my Battle of the Habits right now by exercising. Wish me luck. Forward, march!

21 days, that's what they say, 21days is what it takes to make a habit and 1 it seems to break it. Lucky He keeps giving us chances, as long as we continue trying. Never, never, never give up!
