Habits

Habits can be positive or negitive. The Merriam-Webster Dictionary defines habit as, "an acquired mode of behavior that has become nearly or completely involuntary." Many of them are considered good or bad. Generally the good ones help us become sucessful and the bad ones lead to failure. One of my worst habit is procratination, I have often joked about it by saying, "Why should I do something today that I can put off until tommorrow?" When I do that, it seems that I am always late in getting important things done in a timely manner.

I know how important it is for me to work on and finish the On line Entrepreneur Certification Training completed but, here I am doing another Blog Post. As I am writing this, I realize that it is a good thing to do. However, it would be much better for me to be working on the training lessons.

Somewhere I read that the formation of a habit takes doing something repeatedly over one hundred times. I believe that we are all creatures of habit. There are certain habits that can lock in much sooner. I really desire to become a 'Top Gun' in the WA Community. Therefore, I will have to give up some of the social aspects that I feel so comfortable with.

Tommorrow it will be onward and upward with the training.

Yes it helps to have a routine, and a plan of what to do, then you can go step by step forwards, Best Alan

Writers have a habit of writing. Musicians have a habit of practicing their instrument. Successful people make it a habit to do the most important thing in their lives at the same time every day.

It is important to distinguish between what is important to you and what is urgent matters forced on you by others. Important things can change everyday depending on what segment of your life is most important at the moment. But research suggest that it is best to concentrate on the one most important thing for two or three months.

When planning, I try to define the one most important thing in my life I want to accomplish that month. This month I am editing my Jaaxy and WA reviews and promoting them through the 20 step SEO process given us by Jay. I work on the most important thing for the first two hours after I wake up. Then I exercise and take care of the rest of the Chaos that forms my life.

Habits take the decision make out of your life. Just make sure your habits improve your life and bring you closer to your dreams. Quarterly, I look at my annual goals. Are my habits serving me well or do I have to tweek them a bit to stay on track to my goals.

Aloha, live pono, Bill

Thanks for your insight and wisdom.

Hey Bob,
Can I offer a suggestion. Schedule working on your training on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday so you will have Tuesday and Thursday.
Or schedule training in the morning and blog time in the afternoon.
You have to find a schedule that will work for you but it sounds like "social time" is important to you. Social time is answering emails, blogging, helping out in live chat, and thing like that. Those are important and aren't time wasted.
You need to do the training but you also need this social time in WA to reach your goal!!!

Tried and True

I know what you mean, we are definitely creatures of habit. I get side tracked with the social side on WA, but that is not always a bad thing. The best of luck.

Thanks for the encouragement.

Good for you, I find the habit of reading all these posts gets in the way of my training. That is my excuse, just seem to be bogged down at the minute, but as you say, onward and upward.

At least I know, I'm not alone. Keep on seeking excellence.

I'm working on it. Thanks!

Great article Bob, I like it. It appears you know me, too!

I know that I'm not the only dealing with decisions about what to do first. I pray that if you have the same problem that we will both be able to keep on keeping on.

Hi Robert, there are two ways to go for sure positive is the one that brings results.

I know we reap what we sow. Therefore, I will scatter positive seeds to harvest positive results!

Thanks,
