I Am A Habit

By:John Di Lemme


H-A-B-I-T...When 95% of people hear this word, a negative thought pops up

in their minds. Typically, most people think of a habit being negative.

The secret to your future lies in your daily habits so ask yourself

right now, "Are my habits today going to help me achieve my WHY in life?" This is a life-empowering question if you truly ask it and listen for the answer.



I received the following excerpt from a very dear friend of mine and

felt that it is definitely the best explanation of a habit that I have

ever heard:



I am your constant companion.

I am your greatest helper or your heaviest burden.

I will push you onward or drag you down to failure.

I am completely at your command.

Half the things you do, you might just as well turn over to me,

and I will be able to do them quickly and correctly.

I am easily managed; you must merely be firm with me.

Show me exactly how you want something done, and after a few

lessons I will do it automatically.

I am the servant of all great men.

And, alas, of all failures as well.

Those who are great, I have made great.

Those who are failures, I have made failures.

I am not a machine, though I work with all the precision of a machine.

Plus, the intelligence of a man.

You may run me for profit, or run me for ruin; it makes no difference to me.

Take me, train me, be firm with me and I will put the world at your feet.

Be easy with me, and I will destroy you.

Who am I?

I am a HABIT!



One of my daily habits that is the foundation of my life is

spending 45-60 minutes each and every morning feeding my body physically

by exercising and feeding my mental spirit by reading or listening to a motivational message. This habit warms me up for the day ahead.

Everyone washes their physical body and feeds their body every morning,

but 95% of people will find an excuse about why they can not find the "TIME"

to invest in a habit of feeding their MINDS! This parallels the statistic that 95% of people are dead or dead broke by the age 65. I consider this particular

daily habit of mine to be the driving force behind my ability to consistently maintain my intense focus on the journey of success and living a dream life.



Is it easy all the time? Of course not, but when it becomes a habit –

you will do it! If you commit today to begin each morning warming

yourself up for the day ahead by feeding your mental spirit, your entire

life will change in a positive fashion very quickly. It is like

driving a race car with the emergency brake on and you try to go ahead,

but you can’t move. You stay in the same location with your wheels spinning,

burning up, making a lot of noise, but not going anywhere! All it takes is

to release the brake and you will fly towards toward your WHY in life!!

You need to review what your habits are and ask yourself…“Would I recommend

MY habits to someone I truly love and care about?” Your entire future lies

in your daily habits—positive or negative. You have the most powerful force

right now in your hands, the ability to decide what your habits will begin to be.



Find Your WHY & FLY!!
