Undesired Habit

I try to practice forms of awareness (since it seems to include a conscious kind of effort).  For example, every third week I'll ask an Ever noticed? question about something I've noticed about the world or our collectively shared experience.  On intervening weeks, I'll make an observation about something I'm wondering about and one about something I've noticed about myself, like this one for today:

I've noticed...that one way to stop an undesired habit, is to replace it with a different one.

For me, staring it down and just trying to not do it, doesn't seem to work very well.


 I link them each time, so I can trace a history of the threads more easily and to notice how I evolve over time.

Continuing this practice in 2023 — will see where it takes me.
