Habits are breakable.

There's an easy way to make your worst habits seem less tempting ...

We all have habits. Some of them are good while some are not. The good ones add value to our daily lives by making us happy with ourselves, giving us peace, confidence, high self-esteem, self image and ultimately bringing us success in life. The bad ones lead to nothing but unhappiness in every sphere of life and unhealthy living.

Habits are behaviours we portray without having to think about them because we have continuously repeated an action.

Good habits can be developed by frequent repetition just as bad habits can be broken. At first, developing good habits can prove difficult, but with due diligence and patience we will succeed.

One of the reasons why we find it difficult to develop good habit lies on the effect of our environment and our culture.

Notwithstanding, "Winning is a habit...so is losing", Vince Lombard. A habit can therefore be broken and another developed but this can only be done following a strong resolve, decision. Once you learn to win, it becomes a habit.

Since habits are formed over time through learning, they are also broken gradually. they are not all broken at once, otherwise you'll be too overwhelmed. More so, it takes concentration, persistence and effort to break a bad habit.

Want to lose weight, form the habit of eating healthy foods and exercise; want to save, start with the little in your hand currently and quit impulse spending; want to finish a task, stop procrastinating; desire to succeed, start being personally responsible...

Make a list of the habits you want to curb and we'll coach you through it!

How to Increase Your Job Satisfaction

You'd be wondering why this topic?, why do I have to be the best at a job I already don't like?, why not just quit the moment I dislike it?. These questions are not out of line. The reason is that a survey carried out few years back has disclosed that more than half of employees don't like their jobs. However since that's what we have to do at the moment, my guess is that we have to be our best in it. So I'd want to discuss that period between when we get a job we'll have full satisfaction in and while we are doing what we currently do. It is really difficult putting up with dissatisfaction and so it is very easy to detect when a person don't like their job anymore. They begin to do it haphazardly, shift it to other people, exert their frustration and anger with the job on innocent coworkers, make excuses for not getting things done and seize to take responsibility for any error coming from their work among other things. However, I've been a...

When loyalty is broken

Have you ever felt betrayed by someone? Personally I have a couple of times and the funny part of it is that it often happens with the people we trust. I was hurt, angry and disappointed because I could not understand how someone I care about would do such to me. Discussions on friendships are always very interesting because at one point or another everyone has or had a friend. For the best of us, we can invest all our body and soul into a friendship and still be disappointed. Friendship is a commitment and it involves loyalty. However, the fact is that successful friendships are no longer guaranteed and that is why we need to learn how to let go, forgive and move forward from disloyalty. Loyalty is the quality of being faithful to commitments. However, I heard this saying, " loyalty has an expiration date " and then I saw it. So how do you know disloyal people; -you question their friendship, that is their commitment to you. -you cannot count on them. -you find ...

6 Habits of Emotionally Strong Leaders

When you resort to pleasing people, you realize that striving for popularity leaves you susceptible to making bad decisions and a compromised moral and standards. Most times, we believe that people with high IQ achieve better success in life. Don't get me wrong, its actually great to be smart. But when you take a closer look at high-achieving people, you will observe that emotional intelligence is really the driving force behind their performance. Here are a few habits emotionally strong people possess; 1) They don't waste time feeling sorry for themselves: Emotionally strong people can complain, rant and indulge in self-pity. But this doesn't last more than its supposed to. According to John Maxwell, the period of self-pity should not exceed 24 hours, after which you move on with your life. They also avoid the company of those who spend time complaining. This is because complaints are contagious. So when you feel compelled to self-pity, subject yourself to tou...
