Habit - what we do almost automatically
Seven Good Habits to Cultivate
1. Solitude: Give top priority to God. Be alone with yourself - know yourself.
2. Study: Know what's right and what's wrong. Know what is True and what is False. Know the difference between Love and Hate. Know the difference between Wisdom and Folly - what is Noble and what is Cowardly.
3. Find a few friends to help you grow. As a group grow together.
4. Celebrate that which is good in your Life.
5. Pray: Pray each Day: Praise God. Thank Him for His Goodness. Lay before Him your burdens.
6. Simplicity - Keep your life simple.
7. Compassion: Have Compassion for others; while none of us can solve all of the problems of the world, we can do things and show compassion to others that in the scope of eternity may change the world.
