~ Ill habits gather by unseen degrees -
As brooks make rivers, rivers run to seas. ~ ~ Habits are at first cobwebs, then cables. ~ ~ Habits are at first cobwebs, then cables. ~ ~ A man who gives his children habits of industry provides for them better than by giving them fortune. ~ ~ Fatigue is no more praiseworthy than drunkenness; both are evidence of bad habits. ~ ~ Thoughts lead on to purposes; purposes go forth in action; actions form habits; habits decide character; and character fixes our destiny. ~ ~ Watch your thoughts; they become words. Watch your words; they become actions. Watch your actions; they become habits. Watch your habits; they become character. Watch your character; it becomes your destiny.
~ ~ Our character is basically a composite of our habits. Because they are consistent, often unconscious patterns, they constantly, daily, express our character. ~ ~ The unfortunate thing about this world is that good habits are so much easier to give up than bad ones. ~ ~ Habits are safer than rules; you don't have to watch them. And you don't have to keep them, either. They keep you. ~ ~ First we form habits, then they form us. Conquer your bad habits or they will conquer you. ~ ~ Good habits, once established are just as hard to break as are bad habits ~ ~ Cultivate only the habits that you are willing should master you ~ ~ Habits are to the soul what the veins and arteries are to the blood, the courses in which it moves ~ ~ Every moment there is a possibility to be total. Whatsoever you are doing, be absorbed in it so utterly that the mind thinks nothing, is just there, is just a presence. And more and more totality will be coming. And the taste of totality will make you more and more capable of being total. And try to see when you are not total. Those are the moments which have to be dropped slowly, slowly. When you are not total, whenever you are in the head--thinking, brooding, calculating, cunning, clever--you are not total. Slowly, slowly slip out of those moments. It is just an old habit. Habits die hard. But they die certainly--if one persists, they die. ~ ~ Worries are the most stubborn habits in the world. Even after a poor man has won a huge lottery prize, he will still for months wake up in the night with a start, worrying about food and rent. ~ ~ It will be all over this day week - comfort - discomfort; and the zest and rush that no engagements, hours, habits give. Then we shall take them up again with more than the zest of traveling. ~ ~ Go cherish your soul; express companions; set your habits to a life of solitude; then will the faculties rise fair and full within.
~ ~ We first make our habits, and then our habits make us.
~ ~ First we form habits then they form us.
Conquer your bad habits, or theyíll eventually conquer you. ~ ~ The unfortunate thing about this world is that the good habits
are much easier to give up than the bad ones. ~ ~ Habits are cobwebs at first; cables at last. ~ ~ Bad habits are like a comfortable bed,
easy to get into, but hard to get out of. ~ ~ Attitudes are nothing more than habits of thoughts, and habits can be acquired. An action repeated becomes an attitude realized. ~ ~
Watch your thoughts; they become words. Watch your words; they become actions. Watch your actions; they become habits. Watch your habits; they become character. Watch your character; it becomes your destiny.
~ ~ Bad habits are easier to abandon today than tomorrow. ~ ~ Bad habits are easier to abandon today than tomorrow. ~ ~ The second half of a man's life is made up of nothing but the habits he has acquired during the first half. ~ ~ Men's natures are alike; it is their habits that separate them. ~ ~ Nothing so needs reforming as other people's habits. ~ |
