Though I Hate It I Find Myself Doing It.

They are certain behaviors I had always wished to stop but I always found myself repeating them like...Therefore I had to find a solution and this is what I did: #I stopped going to places where things I wanted to stop were being done For example if you want to stop taking alcohol what business do you have with a club? #I also checked on my dominant passion by asking myself questions like-What do I love,hate,have aversion to,makes me joyful,sad,despair,be angered or makes me courageous and why and Is it worth? #External senses-I also learnt that one has also to check on what he/she is seeing coz most of mess enters our minds through the eyes and the rest of the 'common senses'. #Internal senses- Our imagination and memory also play a great role on our behaviors.No one would wish garbage to be served on his/her table but majority do harbour garbage-like thoughts in their minds and they will unconsciously act like so. #The Intellect also has to be disciplined by ...

I believe the key to success for young adults is sacrificing now for future purposes in case you will be there you will have less suffering with no guilt of your past.
