Nearly everything we do in life is the result of our habits. The
good ones bring peace, joy and power into our lives, and the bad
ones steal our peace and joy and prevent our success. In this book,
Joyce Meyer explains how to develop good habits--the things you
really want to do--and break the bad ones, putting an end to
frustration, discouragement and stress that drains your energy.
The most important habit comes first: the God habit. Next comes a
willingness to work for the results you want. Joyce reminds us
that, "if we don't pay the price for freedom, we will end up paying
the price for bondage." Next comes the power of our words. Our
words and the thoughts that propel them have tremendous power over
our actions, and repeated actions are the basis of our habits.
There are eleven more habits that Joyce discusses in depth,
including the habits of happiness, faith, excellence,
responsibility, generosity, discipline, decisiveness and
confidence.
"Choose one area and begin," she urges. "Don't feel overwhelmed by
all the changes that are needed. One thing at a time, one day at a
time is the best plan. Celebrate every day of success, and when you
make mistakes, shake off the disappointment and keep going
forward."
You can transform your life, one habit at a time.
