Listen to episode 562 of the Inspirational Living Podcast: Building the Habits to Set You Free. Edited and adapted from King of Mind, Body, and Circumstance by James Allen.
Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: Habit is repetition. We repeat the same thoughts, the same actions, the same experiences over and over again until they are incorporated within our being, until they are built into our character as part of ourselves. Faculty is fixed habit. Evolution is mental accumulation. Humanity, today, is the result of millions of repetitious thoughts and acts. We are not ready-made. We become, and are still becoming. Our character is predetermined by our own choice. The thought, the act, which we choose — that, by habit, we become.
Thus each person is an accumulation of thoughts and deeds. The characteristics which you manifest instinctively and without effort are lines of thought and action that become, by long repetition, automatic — for it is the nature of habit to become unconscious, to repeat itself without any apparent choice or effort on the part of its possessor. And in due time it takes such complete possession of the individual as to appear to render their will powerless to counteract it. This is the case with all habits, whether good or bad.
