Four things to make a habit of

I woke up this morning determined to start some new habits in my life from today.

The first one will be writing, I just set myself a 10 minute timer to write.

The second, but perhaps most important thing I need to introduce into my life is to drink 3-4 litres of water a day. This gets a little harder because if I set a timer for this, it usually makes me irritable very quickly. No problem, I need to introduce that into my life now.

The third thing I need to do more regularly from today is meditation. I need to find a fixed time for this, which will be a time for meditation every day. I have to keep to that time no matter what time it is in the apartment or outside, no matter how hungry I am.

One more thing I have to make a habit of, and I'm going to start it today, is Thanksgiving. Each day I will have two fixed times when I will go away and give thanks for the opportunities and the day's happenings. I have been practicing this irregularly, which has resulted in it being missed regularly.

These are four things that I can only incorporate into my life by setting specific times for them and forcing myself to actually put everything aside and do what I need to do in those moments. For example, I'm already sitting here for minutes at a time, thinking I need a drink. I've been awake for an hour and I haven't had a sip.

I'll finish writing slowly because my 10 minutes are running out, but I'll be in touch later today, have a nice day.
