Habit is the most imperious of all masters.

Nothing rules you as completely as what you do without deciding to do it. A habit does not argue or threaten, it simply runs, and by the time you notice, the hour is gone and the choice was never presented. That is what makes it stronger than any person who might order you around, since a person can be refused. Most of a life gets spent under this quiet government.

Pick one habit you would not choose if it came up for a vote each morning. Make it slightly harder to start this week rather than trying to want it less.
