If you have molded clay into a vase and fired it, and now you want to make that object into a tray, you cannot do so. But you can pulverize the vase and add that powder to fresh clay, and then form it into a tray. Likewise, when a bad habit is fixed in your mind and you want to change it, you will have to use your strong will to pulverize that habit and absorb it into fresh, plable good actions that can be remolded to the desired image. Strong will means strong conviction. The minute you say to yourself, I am not bound by this habit, and mean it, the habit will be gone.
Look within and determine your main characteristics. Some love to write, compose music, or dance, others enjoy finance and economics, and so on. Unfortunately, some love to gossip, and others to fight. Don't try to change in yourself what is good. But those things you do against your will, and that make you unhappy after you have done them, are what you want to get rid of. How? Affirm with conviction, I can change! Hold to that thought throughout the day, and carry it with you into the subconscious land of sleep and and the superconscious realm of meditation. That is why I often employ repetition, to penetrate the hard core of human consciousness, a truth must be repeated again and again, gradually becomes a habitual part of one's thoughts. For a few years I have being working on my spiritual priorities, I never miss three things, my meditations, morning and night, my exercises, service to others. This I religiously perform, all else of less importance i somehow manage. These things I tell you come from my own direct experience, and one day will be part of your realization.
