Motivational Minute (13_005)

Quote of the day:

"In any family, measles are less contagious than bad habits." – Mignon McLaughlin

Consider:

How true! Whether you're talking about bad language, bad thinking patterns, bad personal hygiene habits, or any other bad habit—bad habits are easier to pick up than good ones.

Forming good habits can be difficult. It’s human nature to gravitate to the negative, and in today’s world we are constantly exposed to bad habits, so much so, they often come like second nature.

It’s a challenge to fight against these negative influences so as not to be a contagious carrier of bad habits. It requires restraint and consistent practice, but it is well worth the effort.

Here is an exercise you can try to help get you started: Write down one bad habit that you do in the presence of others. Next, write down three steps you can take that will prevent you from passing that habit on to others.

Wishing you all the best,

Coach Dana
