I was thinking about new habit early this week, my bad habit are killing me. Specially going to be soooo late.
I really want to do it, but I’m like a child, I think I’ll miss something if I go to be before midnight and then the next day I pay for it. grrrrrrr

so, how can I start this new habit?

Hmmmm, I love it but am stuck with what new habit I want to acquire which I feel is truly achievable for me, I need some new suggestions. LOL I’ve failed so many times on the old ones I’ve tried…

OKAY, I’m going with the devotions with the kids. We have fallen off that wagon this summer. It’s time to jump back on. I think it will not only help me but help them.

Well after thinking hard about this. I feel I have many habits I need to change for the better. But most important to me, is my devotion time (by myself). I am okay with getting to bed early (I love my sleep now! LOL). I already get up before the kids do. Instead of coming straight to the computer first thing. I am going to stay in my bedroom and have 20 to 30 minutes of devotion time to start out my day! I believe this habit will help with all the others on my new list! Thanks Ladies! Kirwin, I just read your response! And that would be awesome! I need to be accountable!!

LOL…I originally had “9:15″ as my go-to-bed-time, but then I remembered how Leo had said to make it something achievable. 9:30 for me is still a push, but it’s manageable.

I think this is great!! I want to read this book!!! Maybe I should work on doing devotions with my kids. I’m thinking that is very important habit to have. But after reading Kirwin’s post about this and now reading yours. It is something I really need to think about first before deciding! Thanks… I’m going to go take a few quite minutes and think about it!
