RE: New Year's Resolutions Suck. Build Good Habits Instead...

I've felt the same way as you about New Year resolutions for many years. Yet, always a little guilty of not making a concerted effort to fix bad habits at any time of the year. But I think you have opened that door for me with :

The same goes for quitting addictions. In order to kill any addiction one would have, one needs to replace it with a "good habit". If you decide to quit smoking, at least for a while you should "do something instead".

That reminds me of the good habit that helped me quit smoking 30+ years ago - raising my daughter!

Now I just need to think of something good to replace today's bad habits.
