Declarations are a simple way to assimilate the positive precepts into your life and make them your own. Below are the 13 Habits that will change your life for good. Read each one two to five times a day for a week and then move to the next one. At the end of the year, you have gone through each one four times. Ben Franklin taught this simple strategy in his autobiography, perhaps the first self-help book ever written in this country. It worked for Ben. Maybe it will work for me and you?
I choose to be HAPPY today! I am as happy as I make my mind up to be. I make gratitude lists regularly. I love my life.
I dominate the LISTENING in every conversation. I listen, pause, question and paraphrase. “Yes and then what happened…?” is a favorite phrase of mine.
