"I'll take another slice, this will not change anything." "From one tightening, nothing will happen to me." "Another glass and all." Who does not know such phrases? After all, it is with them that bad habits start to live. Slowly and imperceptibly, they are introduced into our lives and after a couple of years we come to our senses that we are in the strong paws of a bad and harmful ritual, which we are no longer able to get rid of. What do our habits say and is there a way to eradicate them? Today there are many answers to such questions.
Harmful and useful habits
If you believe psychologists, to acquire bad skills is much easier than good. If the latter appear in our lives through work and working on ourselves, the causes of bad habits are our vices and temptations. Alcohol and smoking we relax and help to forget, the mountains of debris around and disassociation result from laziness and unwillingness to do anything, and even career problems can be called a consequence of the habit of thinking negatively. In other words, the impact of bad habits on our lives is enormous. They not only make us different, but they can seriously affect our future generation. As an example, consider some harmful and strange habits of girls and women:
- Love to go shopping. Psychologists argue that the stronger a woman loves shopping, the more she is inclined to selfishness.
- Constant hair loosening and curling curls. Usually such women are indifferent to men, but they have a very big love for sex.
- Frequent sleep with not washed away makeup says that these young ladies are calm in bed and are affectionate to their partners.
- Lovers turn in front of the mirror are characterized as dreamy people who often forget about the included iron, as well as about their man, life, family and coziness.
- Scattered underwear speaks of the passionate nature of its possessor. In addition, these individuals have a very rich imagination.
Harmful habits and their consequences can sometimes not be as harmless as it seems at first glance. For example, smoking, drug and alcohol use, can seriously affect the offspring. And it does not matter who had a similar habit - a man or a woman. The risk of the birth of a child with abnormalities is very high. And this is only a small part of the evidence that such a combination as health and bad habits in principle should not exist.
Combating bad habits
Prevention of bad habits, today, unfortunately, is almost not conducted. If this happens, then in the form of unreasonable posters, signs and agitation. The effect of such events is extremely low. Here it's time to remember the phrase about saving drowning people, in whose hands their salvation is. Eradication of bad habits should begin with their awareness. The problem for most people is that they do not see harm in their actions. They gnaw their nails, pick their noses, measure rhythmically with their feet, crunch their fingers, etc. But fortunately there are several effective methods for solving the problem of how to defeat bad habits. The main thing is to take this very seriously:
- It is necessary to distract, briefly relax and remember what actions in the course of the day are committed automatically and without any control. And they are repeated every day. After a while you will be able to recall a few of them. These are the habits that need to be taken under control.
- The question of how to give up bad habits depends on the will and character of the person. Someone needs a couple of days, and some will not last half a year. The best option - every day for three weeks to replace the bad habit is useful. For example, instead of smoking, you need to drink a glass of water and make 5 deep breaths.
- When there is a feeling of discomfort from the absence of a bad habit,
you need to gain strength and do not pay attention to it. It is best to learn to enjoy this discomfort - because he says that the habit goes away. - Never and under no circumstances should you indulge yourself. Very many people break at this stage. "Today was a difficult day, one cigarette will not be anything," and so on.
The main rule in which the prevention of bad habits will act is compliance with the regime in 21 days or 3 weeks. If at least one day is again filled with an old habit - the whole count should be started again. But no matter how the struggle has developed, it is worth it. Life without bad habits is much more interesting and better than sometimes it seems.
