Habit is a second nature, or rather, it is 'ten times nature'.

William James

Habit is a second nature that destroys the first. But what is nature? Why is habit not natural? I am very much afraid that nature itself is only a first habit, just as habit is a second nature.

Blaise Pascal

The number of possible "on-off" patterns of neuronal firing is immense, estimated as a staggering ten times ten one million times (ten to the millionth power). The brain is obviously capable of an imponderably huge variety of activity; the fact that it is often organized and functional is quite an accomplishment!

Daniel J. Siegel

You can easily find people who are ten times as rich at sixty as they were at twenty but not one of them will tell you that they are ten times as happy

George Bernard Shaw

To rise at six, to dine at ten, To sup at six, to sleep at ten, Makes a man live for ten times ten.

Victor Hugo

Your god may be your little Christian habit - the habit of prayer or Bible reading at certain times of your day. Watch how your Father will upset your schedule if you begin to worship your habit instead of what the habit symbolizes. We say, 'I can't do that right now; this is my time alone with God.' No, this is your time alone with your habit.

Oswald Chambers

Habit 1: Be Proactive Habit 2: Begin with the End in Mind Habit 3: Put First Things First Habit 4: Think Win/Win Habit 5: Seek First to Understand, Then to Be Understood Habit 6: Synergize Habit 7: Sharpen the Saw

Stephen Covey

Mark Duplass

Anything that starts as a practice often turns into the habit and so can be the case with a person's nature of forgiving himself on his mistakes a few number of times.

Anuj

I didn’t fail ten thousand times. I successfully eliminated, ten thousand times, materials and combinations which wouldn’t work.

Thomas A. Edison

Neither by nature, then, nor contrary to nature do the virtues arise in us; rather we are adapted by nature to receive them, and are made perfect by habit.

Aristotle

Nature loves you ten times more than a mother loves her newborn.

Sri Sri Ravi Shankar

The interests of the employers and the employed are the same nine times out of ten-I will even say ninety-nine times out of ten.

George Curzon, 1st Marquess Curzon of Kedleston

The truth is, successful people are not ten times smarter than you. They don't really work ten times harder than you. So why are they successful? Because their dreams are so much bigger than yours!
