Whatever we do a few times, we do for the rest of our lives. After that, the behavior becomes a part of us, our personality and we are slaves to it.
If we adopt positive behaviors, like taking exercise, moving around more, eating less, studying, reading good books, spending less money, budgeting our time, they will get engrained in us as habits and make us very successful in the long run.
In the same way, small negative behaviors everyday, like smoking, drinking, overspending money, wasting time, they too will become a part of us and start to run our lives until they lead us into destruction.
Be careful of what you do because it can easily turn into a habit.
We are all prisoners of habit.
