"Strength is breaking a chocolate bar into four and only eating one piece"-Judeth Wurst
How easy it is to break the chocolate and how hard it is to stop at the one piece. It does require will. Or does it?
Long time ago one of my co-workers, Dave, lost a lot of weight after a heart attack. When I asked him if he went on a special diet he said no.
Dave told me that he simply ate half of what he normally ate. If he wanted a candy bar he found someone to share that candy bar with. Instead of 2 scoops of ice cream he ate one.
He said that for a month he was miserable. BUT one day he realized that he still ate what he always ate BUT now he just ate half. The realization that he ate what he always ate gave him will. He was not denying himself anything. He just simply ate half.
Today's question is:
"Can you cut your bad habits in half?"
