How to get rid of bad habits,
addictions,
beliefs,
thoughts
and so on.
addictions,
beliefs,
thoughts
and so on.
First of all, you can always do something less, less often, with less involvement, less intensely...
If you smoked a pack of cigarettes, smoke one cigarette less. You will hardly notice it. But praise yourself. “Well done, I managed to smoke one cigarette less.”
If you drank three bottles of 5% beer, drink three bottles of 3% beer.
If you drank three times a week, drink twice a week.
These are victories.
Never make drastic changes. And especially don't even try to quit everything cold turkey starting on Monday. I assure you—most people will smoke and drink more than usual on Monday instead.
Turn it into a sport. “One cigarette less!” “What am I, a weakling, that I can't drink one can of beer less?”...
Value your victories. Smoking one cigarette less is already a victory.
You can do this—which means you can do MORE.
Change the quality of your bad habit
If you drank some cheap stuff from the store, start drinking quality cognac or good wine.
If you smoked some nasty stuff from the store, order quality tobacco and buy a pipe.
Start doing everything beautifully and with quality.
VALUE YOURSELF
Even by starting with drinking good beverages, you will realize that you respect yourself. And this respect will grow into the moment when one day you say, “That's it, stop. I don't want to harm myself with all this anymore; I want to LIVE!”
