First you form your habits, and then your habits form you. Good habits are difficult to establish. They take some significant, focused effort over a period of time. Achievement and success require consistent effort. Positive habits can deliver precisely that.
Good habits turn baby steps into giant steps.
They cause time to work for you, rather than against you. For example, imagine what would happen in you were to get in the habit of waking up 20 minutes earlier than you do now. You could use the time to work on a special project while the house is quiet and you're able to concentrate. In just one week you would add more than two hours of quality, productive time. Make the investment in your own positive habits, and you could well enjoy the dividends throughout your entire life.
