Is there anyone out there who has tried breaking bad habits? Maybe I should rephrase that. Is there anyone out there who has NOT tried breaking bad habits? No need to answer—we’ve all been there.
We develop habits by practicing something over and over until it becomes a major part of our comfort zone. Many of these habits, like falling asleep at a set time each night or eating breakfast every morning, add to a positive life experience. But those aren’t the ones that concern us.
The problems arise when we have habits that hinder our personal growth and happiness. You know the usual suspects—smoking, swearing, drinking, nail-biting, overeating, gambling, shopping. These habits are often associated with poor health, financial lack, and social difficulties, yet they’re hard to give up. The price of enjoying the momentary feelings of comfort that come with the habit is usually a negative, regretful side-effect.
Obviously, breaking bad habits is necessary for self improvement success; but does it have to be such a big pain in the you-know-what? I don’t think so.
There may not be a magic wand that makes it easy to break a bad habit, but the tips below can help soften the blow.
