The Power of Goal Achievement is in the Habit

I'm working on a gift for a friend of mine, and my theme is around 21 items. Of course, while I was thinking on how I can make this work in a romantic kind of way (it's for Dawn's bridal shower), I thought about centering it around HABITS.

I've been searching the Internet to get some ideas on this and came across this comment:

"Much in the same way that negative habits transpire in our lives, so too can we choose to introduce positive ones. The thing you have to remember is that habits are formed through repetition. Clearly defining your goals is just one step towards attaining them. Equally important is forming habits that go along with the dreams you've set for yourself. "How do I form habits," you ask? It has been said that after 21 days of solid repetition we can create habits around what we desire. That's correct - just 21 days, but it has to be a solid 21 days (give or take a few). If you find yourself skipping the intended event right before it becomes a habit, you've missed the pattern it often takes and you should plan on starting over as though it were day one again. In the grand scheme of things, 21 days is not that much of a sacrifice. It may be a bit inconvenient, but the vast number of gains you'll receive should be well worth it. So the next time you can't quite figure out why you couldn't stick with your intended goal, ask yourself if you were able to stay with it long enough to truly make it a habit. If the answer was no, now is as good a time as any to get on the ball and develop that habit pattern that will lead to your eventual achievement."

I'm trying to remember when I had repetition for 21 days solid. Of course- it's my HABITS!

I think you know where I'm trying to go with this :)

Not sure if I was allowed to just cut & paste someone else's comments (and title) in my blog.... I promise to not do this for the next 21 days, so hopefully it won't be a habit.
