Habits are also reflected upon as attitudes, but to me attitude have their parentage in habit and habit has its parentage in 'mistake'. So avoid mistakes or correct mistakes ASAP you realise its a mistake - so maybe the habit undone would be - first day - habit identified - second day relent and repent - third day - delete habit.
Now, as I close this addition to your inward thinking article, I am reminded of a corporate joke, which goes as under:
"An old manager was fired and was leaving a job. He was handing over to the young incumbant. After handing over everything he gave to new manager three sealed envelopes marked 1, 2 and 3 and with all seriousness said to the new manager - look young man - things have a tendency to go wrong and they will - whever you are in a fix - open one envelope and with my experience the remedy will be there. So they bid goodbye to each other and went their way. Six months down his job the young manager found himself in soup when he recalled the three envelopes - he hurriedly opend the envelope no 1 and there was a slip which read - BLAME ME and that was the young manager did - he blamed his predecessor and everything was ok. Another year down the line when another bag of garbage hit the fan and everyone was gunning for the manager. The manager finding himself in a big crises - opened the second envelope - there was a slip - BLAME THE SYSTEM. The Yound Manger did just that and everythig watered down. Everything went well and many moons went by, till that morning when everything went upside down and again there we cries for the managers neck - the manager hurried to his cabin and opened the drawer to open envelope no 3 for the remedy. Hands shaking he opend it and there was a slip - which read - MAKE THREE ENVELOPES NOW.
