The Power of Habit RSS

Rapid lifestyle changes that are externally motivated often do not have longevity. In fact, most people return to long term previous behaviors. Humans do best with small changes that are realistic. I am hoping to add one good thing (habit) to my life each week. I will practice this habit for 30 days or until mastered.

Day 2 on Do Not Complain

I’m on day two of my “Do Not Complain” new habit and I already blew it.  As I was sitting down in a little Kindergarten chair to help a student today I complained that my knees hurt.

I do NOT want to grow into a complaining, whining, miserable old lady.  I want to be a gracious old lady, with honey on my lips.  I want people to say, “Oh!  Here comes that sweet little old lady,” not “Oh no, hide, here she comes.  I wonder what ailment she has today!”

I know I can only acquire these good habits by the grace of God.

“Dear Lord, give me grace to praise you that I have legs that work, knees that bend, and the joy of sitting in a Kindergarten chair to help cutting and pasting.”
