Habits.
"If you're defending your habits, you are not ready to change them."
This caught my attention the other day, as this is the time of year that we often take stock of our habits, and begin to question them. We sort through the things we do, and may find ourselves defending our actions.
Even though, we know they may not actually be worth defending.
Why would we do that? Maybe, because it's just too difficult to face the facts
that our habits might be hurting us more than helping.
Put those habits on the table, and stop clinging to them. Stop rushing to their defense. When you are defensive, you stop listening. You stop being open to what others have to say.
If there is something you are wanting to change, be open to trying out a new habit. Sometimes just the novelty of the new, might be the catalyst to the change you are seeking.
