I discovered an Easy, Pratical Way to Change a Bad Habit in an Instant, just by using the routine Task of Teeth Brushing.

Think of the numerous things you would like to change in your life, especially in the New Year.Do you feel that sometimes you just can't do it no matter how hard you tried? What do you think is the reason for that? Most times we are told that we do not have enough burning desire to make any change. What does this burning desire mean anyway? Napolean Hill says" When you think, talk, eat, sleep,and dream of "it" until "it" gets you. In the end, when things are not working out, 97% of us give up so easily and say, “This is so hard” I just can’t do it. However, the other 3% seem to be able to get things done easily. How so?

I recently came across something I have had under my nose for some time now, and once I was able to apply firsthand what I had learnt, it worked immediately.

I work late into the night doing research or working on my business and sometimes I am so tired that I am falling asleep at the table. When I do get up, I would head straight for bed, at times without brushing my teeth. Horrible and embarrassing isn’t it? Now I know, this could have easily been solved by brushing before getting deep into my work, however, I kind of like to be fruit snacking or drinking something hot while I am working.

I started thinking that I must get back to the point when I used to brush, floss and rinse at night daily.

Prior to this I had been reading a chapter in a book about beliefs and this next sentence, which is the most important sentence in this article jumped out at me….

“Pain is the ultimate tool in shifting or changing a habit”

A few years ago due to my sweet tooth, I had done extensive work to my teeth, namely crowns, wisdom teeth extraction, scaling and periodontics, fillings, deep cleaning. You name it. I was at the dentist office continuously for about 6 months and even though I had dental insurance, I had to spend quite a bit of money on copays. So let’s go back to pain and beliefs. What do you think happened? I remembered all the money I had spent and I started thinking.

What will it ultimately cost me financially, if I don’t let go of this habit? Will I have to repeat these dental procedures all over again?

Can I go through the physically pain of the numerous shots to numb my gum again and again?

Can I really afford the time to take off my business?

If I don’t take care of my teeth properly, it can lead to other medical issues.

By the time I really thought about this and asked my self more questions, I realized that my bad habit had been significantly weakened under scrutiny. I had linked such intense pain to it, that I was able to get rid of the habit for good! Now, I had to replace it with a new habit of course. And guess what! I not only brush my teeth at night again regularly, but I almost always think of a new idea or a solution when I am brushing my teeth morning or evening. Now, isn’t that amazing how the change occurred in an instant and I found another positive reason to brush!

The funny thing is that when I read the chapter some time ago, I wrote down a few habits that had to change, however, I was not exactly sure how to apply that immense pain to a habit, until I was trying to find a solution for my teeth. In fact thinking more and more about it, makes me realize that I had used this method unconsciously in the past and did not even know it.
