Let me start by stating that the concept of Good and bad exists only in our mind. Nothing is Good nor Bad. It is, only when you say it is....(Topic of another day)

first thing first! Know that habit is a function of the WILL and WILL of the mind.

An inquisitive mind will now ask, What then is the WILL and HABIT?
The WILL is the conscious application of an unconscious impulse. That been said, a habit may then be referred to as the physical or mental impulse that has been unconscious adopted. Hmmm. How?

When you voluntarily repeat an act, it constitutes a WILL and becomes a LAW for the mind.This is how habit is formed. Note: Every WILL MUST manifest or get transformed. (Could this be the reason why most religion advocate for prayer recitation).. Thought!

Exercise:
Endeavour to urinate immediately you wake up whether pressed or not for 7 consecutive day. On the 8th day, the son of man will become pressed immediate after waking. Nature automates every repeated actions by its arm of compensation....share your testimony !!

Some readers can not still find the topic so far.. Have I deviated.. Well, everything is related!!
Let find how!

The LAW of Displacement!!!
Th WILL can always be transformed which will in turn transform the habit to Gold if you like.

Exercise: Anytime the impulse of the unwanted habit comes knocking, Identify a positive action, moment, idea, personality that you so cherish and occupy your thought with it. If its an action, start doing it. If its subjective, occupy your mind with it. ( I have used +ve and -ve here to affirm my first statement). Do this repetedly , religiously and passionately, a new LAW for your mind will be formed, your will transformed and the wanted Habit transmuted.

Nothing is easy, so is this. Unserious attempts may fails but with passionate attempts, a new "YOU" will be moulded. (Nothing is created nor destroyed remember)

It works for me, am sure it will work for you if you want.

Best wishes for Peace Profound.

Whew is that so?

Ever seen this ?? " Matt:17:21


But this kind goes not out but by prayer and fasting.





My opinion.

My opinion.

You are entitled to your humble opinion, but the enlightened OP explained his methods without referring to any religious books; and in my own humble opinion (which I think I am entitled to), is more pragmatic, factual, effective, conclusive and practicable than the scriptures. Moreso, biblical quotations might work for christians, but how about billions of others? My point is, even if you worship stone or amadioha as the case may be, mathew71's remedy is an exercise that knows no religion, race or colour; just try the early morning piss exercise and come give your testimony.

My opinion.

A great number of us are yet to understand the true meaning of prayers.

Please know this; prayer is not only when you kneel down, with your eyes closed that you consider yourself praying. Every thought, word or action we carry out constitute a form of prayer. It could be +ve or -ve. We kneel down and say a word of prayer while our daily lives completely contradict the same prayer...(could this be the reason why it seems our prayers are not been answered). Just thinking..

Practicing these exercises is a form of prayer because you are telling the God of your heart what you want. What do you think his response will be? Your wish is my command!!!

Lucky you.
