Stephen Covey

The truth is, you don't break a bad habit; you replace it with a good one.

Denis Waitley

A fixed habit is supported by old, well-worn pathways in the brain. When you make conscious choices to change a habit, you create new pathways. At the same time, you strengthen the decision-making function of the cerebral cortex while diminishing the grip of the lower, instinctual brain. So without judging your habit, whether it feels like a good one or a bad one, take time to break the routine, automatic response that habit imposes.

Deepak Chopra

Men even contract the dirty, filthy habit of chewing tobacco, and when the habit gets a good hold upon them they are never satisfied except when they have a wad of the stuff in their mouth. So with drinking. It is largely a habit.

Thomas Jordan Jarvis

Tension is a habit. Relaxing is a habit. Bad habits can be broken, good habits formed.

William James

Thinking is a habit, and like any other habit, it can be changed; it just takes effort and repetition.

John Eliot

First forget inspiration. Habit is more dependable. Habit will sustain you whether you're inspired or not. Habit will help you finish and polish your stories. Inspiration won't. Habit is persistence in practice.

Octavia Butler

A bad habit is only a habit until you can observe it, then it's a choice you make

Boonaa Mohammed

Exchange the bad habit of worrying with the excellent habit of trusting God.

Elizabeth George

It takes a habit to break a habit. You can pray every day for a generous heart, but until you start acting in that direction, nothing's going to change.

Andy Stanley

I have a bad habit of picking up books about drugs, but that's better than having a drug habit, I think.

Andrew VanWyngarden

Weaken a bad habit by avoiding everything that occasioned it or stimulated it, without concentrating upon it in your zeal to avoid it. Then divert your mind to some good habit and steadily cultivate it until it becomes a dependable part of you.

Paramahansa Yogananda

The solution is to ignore the bad habit and put your energy toward building a new habit that will override the old one.

Daniel Coyle

Everytime you feed the flesh, you strenghten it. This is good if you are trying to build a good habit, but detrimental if you are trying to stop a bad habit. The way to "kill the flesh" is to starve it; to stop feeding it.
