The power of habit



The power of habit - I suppose every day I could write at least one post related to this topic.

Am I aware of my habits? Sometimes they pop up on the surface, and I often tend to ignore them - a natural resistance of that animal called Jacek.

One of my strong habits is turning my laptop on when I come back home. I'm aware that there are no purely bodily, emotional or mental habits. The habits consist of all these elements, but this consist mainly of emotional component, so I think anyway.

Today when we came back home I had an opportunity: an opportunity of having a choice. I stopped, and refrained from turning the laptop on straightaway. And it doesn't matter that I turned it on 10 minutes later anyway. I had a flavour of what does it mean to say no and choose more constructive alternative, at least for time being.
