If one of your bad habits is smoking then either it's because of peer pressure, you just wanted to fit in or you tried it and now you are stuck with it. If, however, it's because you think it's a stress reliever and you think that there's no either way to relax then try meditation. It works wonders! if you do it properly, that is :D

Here's the playlist showing you everything about Vipassana Meditation.

"You have bad habits, but it's impossible to break them." 

Everything seems to be so difficult if you don't have the foundation meaning you don't know how it works. In this case, you also need to know how habits are formed in order to break them. 


Habits are formed:
1. Cue
2. Routine 
3. Reward
(4. Craving)

If you want to have further insights into this then I would recommend the book: The power of Habit:

How to break the habit is by 
CHANGING/REPLACING THE ROUTINE!

What you need as a requirement is: 

1. Visualization (02:37)
2. Negative Reinforcement (04:05)
3. Time Interval Experiment (04:51)

What is holding you back is...

1. The Law of Attraction (06:14)
2. Your Prefontal Cortex shuts down when you are stressed out (07:15)

Ultimate Solution for breaking habits is AWARENESS!


Don't be afraid that it might be hard because it might be, but you HAVE TO take the first step.
