Yesterday I messed up a bit. I felt tired and discouraged, so I immediately went back to one of my secondary (more mild) habits.
Today, I realize, I should have turned to quitting information at that moment so I would be reminded that I have options. I could have:
Praised the Lord
Prayed about contentment
Prayed about increasing in love
Prayed about purpose
Prayed about caring about souls
Prayed about working on the habit of replacing wrong thoughts with quitting prayers
If I had the “habit” of going to a quitting site when life got me down, I could have been reminded to do one, or several of these things. I could have taken a step toward joy. Instead… well, I ended up depressed and stressed out.
Today, consider making a commitment to going to a quitting site when life gets you down.
Consider working on making it a habit to go to a quitting site to find something good to work on. Something good to distract you. Even if you only spend 2 minutes there, you may be reminded to:
Praise the Lord, or to pray some quitting prayers that really help you (When you remember to pray them).
Finally, if work on the habit of going to a quitting site when life gets you down, you can start climbing back up, even if your day doesn’t help you.
