THE POWER OF HABIT

I recommend the new book The Power Of Habit by Charles Duhigg. The book examines the science of WHY we do WHAT we do. It is fascinating how companies use our habits to market items (see article).

The "experts" say that it takes 28 days to break--or adopt--a habit.

I tried diligently to break a habit, but after 28 days, I still WANT what I gave up!

I can't find any experts to tell me how to stop WANTING!

The song Breaking The Habit by Linkin Park has a marvelous line:

"I don't want to be the one
The battles always choose."
