The beginning of a new year startswith people making resolutions and promising to keep those resolutions. People vow to to get healthy, drink less, lose weight etc etc etc........but come February........alas much of that motivation has been lost.

What does it take to make us form new habits or give up old ones, even when those old habits make cause us to suffer, especially when we choose to continue such habits. It would be so much easier if we could intellectually analyse those behaviours and look at all the negatives (which usually outway the positives by far) and make a rational decision to stop those habits. Unless you're a robot our brains just don't work like that. Some people just seem to be wired to crave bad things that momentarily make us feel good, even if we  know the consequences will be horrible.

So how you stop. I don't know. I wish I knew...........................
