BECOME AN EXCELLENT HABIT

TODAY'S QUOTE:
We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act, but a habit. - Aristotle

This is such an important lesson, and this teacher was wise beyond measure. It was just as true when he related it first hand as it is today; most concepts that come from such  a deep thinker never change no matter the length of time that passes. When we view everything we do as a habit, (either good or bad), it is so much easier to grasp our ability to alter our actions to better suit our nature.

Growth demands change. Positive growth demands forethought and dedication to a mindset that does not wobble no matter which way the wind blows. Once we are dead set on a path of positive change there is not anyone or anything that can stop our forward motion. We must be willing to do all we can to improve what goes on inside of our precious 3 feet of personal space. Once we gain positive control there nothing is ever quite the same again.

We soon learn to measure the importance of things that touch our space with an eye always alert for hidden danger. Our actions take on a added meaning as we replace bad or indifferent actions with positive ones and make a habit of repeating them until they become second nature. We become a re-creation that better suits our true self and reflects more clearly our creators true intentions. 

We think and rethink in a deliberate fashion, redecorating our mind with notions that will demand we become better in some way with actions that promote a blooming spirit. A habit is an automatic pattern of behavior... so flip off auto pilot and steer manually toward a better self. Think about it... Let it ride... Then decide!!!
