Good or Bad

good vs bad

I believe that I have more good habits than bad habits.  But that is my opinion and at the end of that day that is all that matters.  I work hard for all that I have.  I am still a work in progress and that is what I hold true to.  At this point in my life I believe that the good habits outweigh the bad habits.

While the bad habits are sometimes necessary, it is the good habits that help me progress in life and that keep me on track as I grow and mature.  I am thankful for the bad habits because they have helped me to cultivate the good habits I have developed.  I think the bad habits I have such as procrastination, a small bit of disorganization and lack of exercise have all helped me to know how to find things in an organized mess, work well under pressure, and be in tune when those extra 5-6 pounds creep in.

The good habits,  health cooking, prayer, have all come by learning what did not work.  What is true is that you have to work hard at everything you do each and everyday.  The truth is that the longer and harder you work at what the good habits the more they become a way of life.  That is what you want to develop life habits.  Keep up the good work and know that all of the bad habits can be changed.

Good Habits

The best habit I ha e ever developed is the prayer.  Prayer has been one of the best and life changing habits I have developed in my life.  Prayer allows me the ability to vent, anytime, anyplace, and in any space.  I enjoy the conversations I have with God and the time we spend together.

Learning to pray was not always easy. Many people think that there is a specific formula and a method to praying, when it is really not.  Prayer is simply your exchange with the divine there is no formal way to do it or a right or wrong way.  I found that God and I often had our best and deepest conversations in the car on the way to work.  It was a great way to start the work day and provided me to spiritually and mentally prepare for the day ahead.

Prayer is the best habit I have cultivated and has definitely changed my life for the better.  Because of the pressure to pray the ‘right’ way it was hard to develop a prayer life. Releasing the need to please others or feel accepted by their definition of prayer has allowed me the ability to be free and open before God.  I have seen how prayer as helped and changed me in may good ways.  Writer Anne Lamott says the most profound prayers are:  Help… and Thank You.  I believe there is one more but I forgot it.  Here is to reminding you all that not all habits are bad and life has more in store.
