Thursday, November 19, 2009 at 06:34AM A Habit with a Bad Habit...
Old habits are hard to break, especially when you want to start a new one. You know, like working out, or saving money. But the crown jewel of all habits is listening to the voice of doubt, the harpy who sits on your shoulder dishing out insults with a snarky smile on her face.
What if you changed your intention from say, working out, to just getting out the door? Just get your running shoes on and slam the door. She'll be waiting for you when you get back, and up to no good, but at least you'll have knocked that chip off her shoulder. (Lather, rinse, repeat.)
Now go get (un)busy, Lisa
