You jump every time you see a dog whether it’s tethered or not. You begin to sweat and your heart beat races out of control and your fee want to take flight. You broke up with that special someone and when you saw them while you were out shopping, your anger kicked in and you felt heated and yes your heart picked up a rapid beat.
You enjoy shopping and it makes you feel good inside when you get the packages home and go through them again as you un-bag them. You feel a special love for people in your life who are important to you when you see them each time. When you eat your favorite foods, you get a satisfied feeling and your taste buds are appeased. You accomplish your goal and you celebrate its completion. You complete a task and feel the joy of getting the job done. You went on a diet and loss weight and celebrated by buying new clothes.
Each one of these scenarios requires a response. The frequency of the response will determine whether it becomes a positive habit or a negative habit. Your response will determine what type of habits you will allow in your life style. What you practice you will, you will become. However you respond practiced enough times will become a life habit. If you want more celebrations in your life, you must continue to celebrate each accomplishments.

If you make it a habit to smile, you’re smile the majority of the time. If you make it a habit to be kind, you will exhibit kindness. If you make it a habit to eat right and exercise, your body will become healthy. If you practice good responses, you will move towards good habits and vice versa is true. Think of sports. You only become good at the sport if you go to practice and practice, practice, practice. Practice the rudiments of the game until you reach some form of perfection.
The same thing happens when it comes to habits. Habits are practiced, practiced, practiced solidifying the behaviors. It is our choice whether we are going to practice the good or the bad. Check your response and determine if it’s satisfying enough to make a change in your habits. If its not what you want to see happening in your life, change how you respond to it so it doesn’t become a habit you do not wish to cast in cement in your life’s habits.
