To feel the power of this text, place yourself in the “I” 🙂
We create pattern and replicate them on and on. It’s just a fact. The problem is when those patterns are not for our own goods. When we replicate a pattern, we make it a lot more difficult to change. Any pattern can be changed, but the longer we use them, the harder it is to change them.
So, it is worth the hard work to change a pattern that is not good for us.
We first need to know the goods and the bads our patterns are bringing to us. We need to identify the one we should change.
Once we know which one I should change, I have to choose one pattern and find out what it should become to bring me more goods.
Remember something, I can’t lie to myself. It’s an illusion if you think you can lie to yourself. I always know the truth of my actions. I know the why and I understand if it is a good actions for me or not. I understand if it is a good pattern for me or not.
Usually, it takes around 21 days to changes a pattern. So, if you do it everyday for 21 days, the pattern will become your new one and replace what you did before. It will become something that you do without really thinking about it. After 21 days, it’s still really fragile, so you still need to focus on it every time you feel the old pattern coming back.
There’s no easy road to bringing more good into our life. We have to do the hard work and keep doing it.
Stand up and do something good!
The apostle Paul, in his first letter to Timothy (1:15-16) wrote: “It is a trustworthy statement, deserving full acceptance, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners, among whom I am foremost of all. Yet for this reason, I found mercy, so that in me as the foremost, Jesus Christ might demonstrate His perfect patience as an example (pattern) for those who would believe in Him for eternal life.

Loved your blog design, I have lots to learn as I’m just starting up. There’s a good book about habits and change for people who want to learn more about the subject, “Atomic Habits” I think the author is James Clear.

That’s an interesting figure. The way I see the 21 day limit would be to take a three week vacation and alter then the pattern in a more satisfying setting.

I feel like I need to do a 21 day challenge in order to be apart of the 5am club
