I came across another one of Jim Rohn’s powerful quotes. He was the master in saying a lot with a few simple words.
“Bad habits are easy to form and hard to live with and good
habits are hard to form but easy to live with.” ~ Jim Rohn
How often have you wanted to exercise on a more regular basis but somehow never found the time or energy? I plead guilty to that too.
But as we all know time or energy are not “found” in the street or in a “lost and found” office. It is something we need to create, we need to make space for. Bad habits can be anything from getting up too late and rushing into the day without taking the time for a healthy breakfast that is supposed to keep us fueled all day. We all know it but few do it.
Coming home from work it is so much easier to flop on the sofa and turn the TV on to watch some senseless series than to do those exercise we did not make time for in the morning or to read that book we have sitting on our bedside table for months.
But like Jim Rohn points out, in the end these bad habit make our life hard. Living unhealthy eventually gives us an unhealthy body. Not taking care of our finances eventually makes us bancrupt. Not spending quality time with our loved once, often ends in a bad relationship or even a break-up.
So how do we form a new, a better habit?
First of all we make a decision that now is the time to do it. It’s got to come from us and not from the outside. Next we make a written commitment into our journal and declare that
I, ……………………………………., on …………………………….. commit 100% to ……………………………………………………………………………………………………
because it will ………………………………………………………………………………..
The reason why you want to form this new habit is important as that is what will get you over the bumps and hurdles when you don’t feel like it.
Enjoy and be happy doing it!
If you don’t have one start a gratitude journal in which you write things you are grateful for every single day. That takes a minute a day but gives you so much motivation and inspiration to fuel the energy you need to break some bad habits.
