Habits


How many days does it take to form a habit? Around 21 to 66, and that's any habit at all. What is 21 to 66 days in the course of our young lives? Absolutely nothing. I've had EDNOS for alot longer than that. So if you look at it from this perspective, it should seem so very easy.

But in order to form a steady habit effectively, you really have to know what a habit is... Ok I'm pretty sure we all get the jist of it. Although sometimes I do need to mentally sort it out to plan ahead, I'm slow like that. Anyway, if you have the determination and will to do something day after day consistantly for up to 66 days, it will become so routine that you don't even need to think about it in order to do it anymore. It just becomes a customary thing in your life. Mindless starving. Effortless.

An absolute promise that all of us can be the girl we strive to be.

  1. 21 days...doesn't seem long, does it, if we're promised we can manage an eternity after? *sigh* i haven't been able to manage more than 3-5 days of control yet! we'll see...
