Creating Habits To Delight

Last spring, for no particular reason, stopping at WAGS (West Addison General Store) to buy a small bag of potato chips and a soda, became a to do thing on my way over to Upstate New York. 

Now, if I don’t stop and buy them, then it is like having phantom where-are-they pain like after a tooth is pulled. Habits, big or small, I feel, are fascinating. 

Thinking now. What habit would be fun to create? 

In the early days, blogging was a habit. I had to post or else it would nag me all day. Nowadays, posting is a blended well part of what I do.

Habit Suggestions:

• Put glasses in the same 3 places 
• Keep shoe horn hanging near the coat closet or from the door handle
• Stretch while water is boiling any time water is boiling
• Set a fun alarm sound for afternoon tea 
• Each Friday, designate an hour for whining about everything. Set a timer.
• Have a weekly No Buy Day
• Have a weekly dance afternoon
• Write down a new idea every day
