Get Out Of Your Bad Habits !




Bad habits are like a comfortable bed, easy to get into, but hard to get out of. 

How to break bad habits :

  - focus on changing just one habit at a time

 - acknowledge how the habit dis-empowers you

 - realize how you alone can break the habit, no-one else can do it for you

 - separate yourself from your habit and understand that you aren't your habit

 - visualize yourself without the habit

 - replace the bad habit with something positive

 - don't focus on the "not doing", but instead, focus on " doing" the positive action

- don't beat yourself up when you slip up, just break the habit as many times as it takes

Have the Spirit of Sharing and Be Happy Always

To have the spirit of sharing is to be constantly happy. There are lots of resources in each one's life that can be shared with others. The more there is the consciousness of giving there is the ability to give and share these inner resources with others. New treasures are discovered and used for the benefit of all and also for the self. There is constant satisfaction in our lives when there is the spirit of giving. There are no expectations from others, but only an awareness of what we have. Life becomes more and more satisfactory and we feel richer for having given unconditionally. There are also constant good wishes that we receive from others.

Become A Spiritual Lighthouse and Spread Happiness

To spread the light of happiness is to become a spiritual lighthouse. When we are in situations where there is negativity around or there seems to be no source of happiness, we too naturally tend to feel low and negative. We are totally under the influence of the situation and we can't seem to overcome the feeling at that time. Nothing actually inspires us to make effort to come out of such a feeling. We need to remind ourselves that we are a lighthouse, a source of light to all those around us. This thought will give us the inspiration to remain stable and strong even when we are amidst chaos or difficult situations. We will be able to spread our light across and show everyone the right direction by becoming an inspiration to those around us.

Habits Break Easily When There Is Flexibility

Habits break easily when there is flexibility. The more we work with a habit the more it will be strengthened. When we hold on to our habits because of our rigidity, we will never be able to change them but will only be strengthening them all the more. On the other hand if we are flexible we will be able to give up unwanted habits very easily. If we are working with any habit which we want to get rid of, we have to remind ourselves that we must not strengthen the habit any more but have to break it. We only need to emerge the flexibility within us and tell ourselves that we needn't act in the same way that we have always done, instead we can think of something new.
