Developing The Will

There is no such thing as a bad habit. Any unconscious compulsive ritual is a problem.
But specific activities --smoking, drinking, drugs, sweets, or asking dumb questions--are both bad and good: every action has its price, and its pleasures. Recognizing both sides, you become realistic and responsible for your actions. And only then can you make the warrior's free and conscious choice--to do or not to do.
When you sit, sit: when you stand, stand; whatever you do, don't wobble. Once you make your choice, do so with all your spirit. It's better to make a mistake with the full force of your being than to timidly avoid mistakes with a trembling spirit. Responsibility means recognizing both pleasure and price, action and consequence, then making a choice.
