Habits are automatic urge action combinations. A trigger goes off; old urge-action-reaction cycles kick; old consequences happen again

Impulse control means learning to think it through before you act it out.

There are entry points to the human brain/mind that when stimulated cause us to develop new neural circuits as the new connections stimulate the brain/mind to expand our consciousness.

The best predictor of future behavior is past behavior minus an effective plan to change.

People are better able to confront an uncomfortable truth when they can laugh at themselves. Jokes that illustrate difficult truths can make the point while bypassing denial and resistance.

We can control what we say, we can't control what other people here us day. Always ask people tell you what they heard you say.
