Million Dollar Habits – Page 49
Chapter Three
Becoming A Person of Value
“Thoughts lead on to purposes; purposes go forth in action; actions form habits;
habits decide character; and character fixes our destiny.”
(Tryon Edwards)
Almost everything you are or will be will be determined by your thoughts, feelings
and behaviors. Fully 95% of everything you think, feel
and do will be determined
by your
habits
. The key to becoming a great person, and living a great life, is for
you to develop the habits of success that lead inevitably
to your achieving
everything that is possible for you.
Fortunately, all habits are learned, and are therefore
learnable
. If you have bad
habits, or if you have not yet developed the habits that you need to become
everything that
you are capable of becoming, you can develop these habits by a
systematic process of practice and repetition, just as you learn any other subject.
Good habits are hard to learn, but easy to live with.
Bad habits, on the other hand,
are easy to learn but hard to live with. In either case, once you have developed a
habit, it becomes automatic and easy. Like
breathing in and breathing out, you find
it easier and easier to engage in thoughts, feelings and behaviors that are consistent
with
the person you want to be, and the goals you want to achieve.
