Humans are all creatures of habit. I am especially. I have been bitting my nails since I was in the second or third grade and had to wear fake nails for a year just so I would stop bitting them. I'm a week strong so let's hope I will stop this disgusting habit.
Habits. How do we break them? Are all habits bad? My habits seem to always be bad. I have come to a realization that I'm not as good of a person as I believe myself to be. I do the right things or so I think but I have some nasty habits that have to be broken. I have the biggest attitude anyone could imagine. I have always had an attitude, for as long as I can remember. My parents have home videos of me acting like a complete brat. In high school, I thought it was hilarious to show them, and now I'm so embarrassed by the way I acted and still do to some extent. I always have to be right. This might come with the attitude and that I'm a female but for some reason I cannot STAND to be wrong. I always think my ideas are better than everyone else's, I always think the "facts" I state are right and most of the time they are completely off, and I absolutely hate to be beaten. I also have a tendency to pitch a fit when I don't get my way. So childish I know, but that's how bad I have to be right. Lastly, I put people down for my own pleasure. I hate admitting this because I feel I am such a people person and always try to make other people happy. This flaw has slowly started to get better but I'm still hurting the people I love most.
So how do I change this stuff? Most of these things have been habits since I was four years old. These problems are not good. It is not very grown up of me to be acting in these manners. I am completely disgusted with myself because I have found myself being completely selfish. I have been doing some deep soul searching this weekend and still can't find a way to make all these things better. I hope it changes soon and I will continue to pray that it does. I don't want to be this way anymore. It's time to be an adult and handle problems in adult ways.
