Out with the Bad, In with the Good

Want to break those bad habits? Substitute good ones! The key is to remember that the average habits takes from five to 21 days to break. You must consistently be aware of the habit to develop a new habit of not doing it.

It would be useful to consciously replace the habit with one you would prefer. For example, when you catch yourself in a nervous habit – such as nail-biting or head-scratching – substitute taking a deep breath and smiling instead. It’s important to keep at it for at least three weeks.
