What to do to Change Habit - Wabs Conversation

YANA: I am not punctual I know, but I can’t change my habit.

JON: We are slaves of our habits which we developed in childhood or during our teenage years.

YANA: It is said every problem has a solution. Can’t I become punctual? I try my best but I feel like a chained animal, helpless.

JON: Your will power is weak like most of the people. If you are able to make your will power strong you can change your habit, or develop a new habit very fast.

YANA: Have you an idea to help me? How can I do it?

JON: One the most brilliant psychologists in the world William James has suggested to do some exercises, even if they are useless, to train your will. It helps a person to improve habits as well as personality.

YANA: If you know please tell me.

JON: I have been captain of my college football team. Our coach told us about it. Take small decisions everyday. For example stand on a chair for five minutes everyday for a few days or stare at a positive picture. Do some new exercise. In brief, everyday do any activity for a few minutes. Change the activity after a few days. It will train your will and you will be able to change habits.

YANA: This idea is unbelievably simple. Will this really help me?

JON: It helped me and many other players. I still use it to train my will further.

YANA: I shall follow it, I promise. I am feeling more confident.
