Review Your Daily Habits. Are They Supporting You?
Is today the day to stop doing what doesn't inspire you, but has become a habit?
Is today the day to begin new projects and a new way of life that truly inspires you?
Are your habits moving you toward your life goals?
Or are they keeping you stuck in place?
- Jonathan Lockwood Huie
Your life is the sum result of all the choices you make,
both consciously and unconsciously.
If you can control the process of choosing,
you can take control of all aspects of your life.
You can find the freedom that comes from being in charge of yourself.
- Robert Foster Bennett
The freedom we are looking for is the freedom to be ourselves,
to express ourselves. But if we look at our lives we will see that
most of the time we do things just to please others ...
The worst part is that most of us are not even aware that we are not free.
-Don Miguel Ruiz
Bad habits are like a comfortable bed,
easy to get into, but hard to get out of.

Correcting bad habits cannot be done by forbidding or punishment.

just keeps getting pushed away again and again.
- Jonathan Lockwood Huie
You will never change your life
until you change something you do daily.
- Mike Murdock
Our character is basically a composite of our habits.
Because they are consistent, often unconscious patterns,
they constantly, daily, express our character.
- Stephen Covey
Successful people are simply those with successful habits.
- Brian Tracy
If we want to direct our lives,
we must take control of our consistent actions.
It's not what we do once in a while that shapes our lives,
but what we do consistently.
- Anthony Robbins
Today, examine your beliefs, your actions, your wants,
