How to Kick Bad Habits

Postby Angel » 19 Mar 2014, 19:03

After getting pulled over for the 2nd time this year, I really want to know how you guys "train" yourself to kick your bad habits.
Any kind of bad habit, biting your nails to aggressive driving.

What I've found, is that when you actually go the speed limit and pay attention to road signs and such, the people behind you get all peeved off and swerve around you like you're going 10mph or something. So it seems like if you're not aggressive, then everyone else is and they all want you to die in a fiery car crash or something...Then again, Utah is known for our terrible driving...is it like that where you live?

People in Ohio, at least in my town, speed all the time and act like they have someone about to give birth in the back of their car. Crazy people, Angel, Crazy people. ;)

I find setting the car to cruise control (when on open roads) stops me from speeding. Otherwise I like going too fast. When on city streets, I dont have issues with going too fast.

Specifically when driving, I always just try to stay with the flow. I disregard posted speed limits for the most part if people are going faster, because going slower can do what you just said and be unsafe unto itself. You may already be doing this.

As for breaking other bad habits, god I wish I knew a way.

Nail biting, you're supposed to put chili powder/lemon juice on your nails.

Put a rubber band on your wrist and everytime you do the bad habbit, pull it back really far and let go.

if that doesn't work, tell your friends and famil your problem and ask them to slap you upside the head when you did it.

I used to peel at the skin around my fingers (i still do just not as bad) and it'd be really bad where my fingers would literally bleed and my grandmother got sick of it so everytime she saw me do it she slapped me across the face. i was 6 so i'd start crying and she'd say "walk it off" and i stopped because when your grandmother tells you to walk it off you walk that shit off especially when she is italian and irish or you will die.

so now i don't do it as bad. but i do it a little but my fingers don't bleed and she still slaps me across the face during holiday.
