Being creatures of habit as we are, is why our daily routines can become so
boring if we continue to allow these routines to rule out lives. We can all
see, with a little personal observation, that our days would be better spent if
we dropped one or two of them and replaced them with less boring ones.
Addictions are those types of habits that are so difficult to drop. Hard drugs,
as we all know, can not only destroy the body but also destroy relationships.
Apart from being hooked on drugs, there are many habits that are so much
easier to break away from but if one is honest with oneself, one will admit that
Out-of-control thinking is the hardest to deal with.
Like the opening of Pandora´s box, scrambled thoughts fly out and we can be
so easily swept away if we are not able to exercise at least some degree of
control. Acknowledging that the most powerful thing we have is thought,
we can begin, if we so desire, to improve the situation.
Intention is everything, and by remaining focused on your intention, you are
in fact, creating the very thing you desire. Be careful what you think is a very
wise admonition. Thinking about what you really want and feeling that you
already have it, is the trick.
What is it you really want? To break a habit? Alright then, you can, and you
will, with a little help from your friend. The best friend and helping hand
you could ever have is already at your side and has been since childhood.
If you can get into the habit of wanting to remain in the company of your
friend you will, because HE is always with you. Let this habit become your
new way of life and be glad.
