Your so-called “bad” habits are at times deeply ingrained.  They come from a lifetime of beliefs that are
out of alignment with your true nature as spirit.  Some you can shuck off quite easily, once
recognized.  Others are a bit more
tenacious.  Be patient.  Life will continue to give you uncomfortable
and yes, at times, painful lessons surrounding these beliefs and habits until
you no longer care to cling to them a moment longer.  At that point the light will go on and you
will fling them away, finished with them once and for all.  How much discomfort are you willing to
tolerate?  It is always your choice.
