On Habits
pg.161: Stoic 6 Pack: Epictetus
Every habit is maintained and increased
by the corresponding actions
you learn to walk by walking
you become an author by writing
you become a good reader by reading
if you want to strengthen a habit
do it for 30 days continuously!
if you want to weaken a habit - say Anger
stop being angry for 30 days continuously

If 30 days of habit streak sounds too much
Start with 1 day
Then a 2 day streak
Then 3 days ...
And so on
So you shall create an habit spiral!
Creating new ones
Unshackled from old habits!
