| Summary: | You're going to quit smoking this time. You're going to go to the gym and be on the treadmill three times a week. No more cookies until you fit into the bathing suit you bought. Charge cards are a thing of the past -- if you can't afford to pay cash, you can't afford it. And alcohol! No more wondering what you said at the office party. It's juice and water now. Even if your unhealthy habits are hurting you, they served a purpose. When you abandon them, there's a loss, and they need to be replaced by pleasurable behaviours. Otherwise, it's too easy to give up and revert to old, familiar and predictable ways. Ruth McQuirter Scott of Burlington is a freelance writer and a professor at the Hamilton campus of the Faculty of Education, Brock University. |
