What Is the Best Way to Get Over Bad Habit or Addiction?
Question by julybaby: What is the best way to get over bad habit or addiction?
This isn’t abt serious addictions like heroin, alcohol, but rather bad habits like watching tv all night when I should be reading a book.
If you have overcome something, I would love to hear about it.
Thanks!

I overcame spending 12 hours a day answering questions here by getting off my bum and going out and doing things 🙂
Set yourself a goal (say 30 mins reading) and then reward yourself with something (maybe some TV time). Increase the amount of time spent on the goal activity until you are doing what you need to.

I would actually start something else, the best way for me is to “just do it”! I did something yesterday that I have been meaning to do for years and it felt so good afterwards, I felt like I accomplished a huge thing! I know it’s not much, but it’s all i have to offer 🙂
