How to acquire good habits?
Habit is an action that has emerged gradually, as a result of repetition, and now it is done alone. Habits can also be defined as patterns of behavior that have developed over time. The formation of a habit is called custom. The habits are very different: professional and domestic, social and individual, arise gradually or almost instantaneously.

And most importantly: habits are useful and harmful.
The quite arbitrary individual habits are divided into useful and harmful (sometimes harmful).
In humans, sometimes there are many bad habits: smoking, throwing things around the house, eating watching television, postponing the case until later. At work, the habit of revenge, etc.

How to start developing a new habit instead of an old and bad one? Can reeducation still be effective?
Rarely, but it can. When choosing a strategy, you must consider many things: it is a bad habit, an opportunity to appeal to the mind and will of a person, his ability to work on himself, even a person's age. As long as a bad habit is not fixed, it can (and even better) not pay attention, change oneself or another to other things, activities, hobbies.Source
How to acquire good habits?
To develop a habit that is really necessary, respond in the most honest and detailed way to the most important question: why? Why do you need that habit, how will you live, when do you have this habit, what will change? If you have serious intentions regarding the habit you need, write down all of this.
The less part of the set, the easier it is to make and control the result. Destroy your new desired habit in the smallest possible parts and create for yourself a project of a complete and, if possible, specific description of the desired behavior. For example, to create the habit of getting up early and doing more things in the morning, it is necessary:
- Go to bed earlier than usual.
- Turn off the TV and computer before.
- Place the alarm clock away from the bed.
- Take a contrast shower.
- Breakfast, coffee, listening to audio lessons.

The main thing is to remember that useful habits develop faster if you repeat the actions associated with them regularly. Carry out the intended objectives without excuses and exceptions: this is the key to forming a successful habit.
Additional tips
What is written with a ballpoint pen, can not be cut with an ax.
Any plan, as long as it exists only in your imagination, is only a dream. Write your plans and they will become a goal! Also take into account your successes and achievements, in any way is convenient and highlight the achievements made - it will be a good incentive and reward.
