Everyone has good habits and bad habits.
Unfortunately,while identifying(识别) our bad habits is easy,changing them is not.Here are some tips to help you develop good habits to achieve your goals.
1. Identify Your Bad Habits

you react.Then identify those actions that
anger,upset,or annoy you. 

wish to improve,write them down on a piece
of paper.Choose one,two at most,and focus
only on those.Make notes about them,and
post those notes in prominent(显眼的) places
to serve as a constant reminder to you to
correct your behavior in those areas.
3. Live for Today
Try not to think of what you have to do
tomorrow,next week,or next  month.
Instead,focus on what you are doing right  
now.Give each person you deal with your
undivided attention,and try not to let other
aspects of your life interfere(打扰).

Let your family and friends know about the 
changes you wish to make in your life.Ask
Them _____ .Sometimes learning to accept advice is a new habit in and of itself.By receiving advice from people you trust,you will be able to learn whether or not you will be successful in building new habits. Change is 
