How to change bad habits

Let's say that every time you walk through a door way that you say to yourself, "I am very happy today". There doesn't have to be a door there, just make it a priority to say "I am very happy today" every time you walk through a doorway, over what ever it is that you are doing. If you forget to say "I am very happy today" go back and walk through the doorway again and say, "I am very happy today". The point of this is to understand how easy it is to get a new habit started and also to learn how the mind works. Do this all day every day for 5 days straight in a row. This is your priority over anything that you are doing, because it will not affect any of your work. In fact it will make your work easier.

If you are in a situation where you are moving through many doorways during your day this habit will quickly take effect. If you are in a situation where you remain sitting for most of the day you can start with something like. Every time you hear a commercial, a commercial on TV or on the radio, say to yourself, "I am very happy today" You can use what ever you want. Use something to randomly trigger your brain to say "I am very happy today" with out thinking of when you will say it next. This is a sub-conscious exercise. It works better when you are not anticipating when you will say "I am very happy today" next.
