What is your worst habit that you'd like to change?

I am an early riser, but spend ages mindlessly browsing on the computer. Ideally, I would like to start the day with a workout but I am not sure that early morning exercise suits me. Still, I could spend 30 minutes meditating which I have never done and could really help with my stress levels. How can I be so lazy that I can't be arsed to break this damaging habit of mine???? Inevitably not only I end up wasting time, but also money!!!

I spend too much time future planning and not living in the moment. I hate this about myself but I can't seem to stop.

You just reminded me. I get up early for work but years ago I got all excited about the 30 day shred. It was very popular on here. So I bought the DVD and weights. The only time I knew I could do it was before work. I know me well enough to know that I wouldn't do it after work. I did that thing daily for 2 or 3 months. At 5:45 am. I looked amazing. Sadly I didn't keep it up.

Eating when I'm bored
Talking over the end of people's sentences - I really hate that one

That I'm quite happy to do a half arsed job 😂 Hoovering for example. I'll hoover downstairs, all the bits I can see etc so it looks clean and tidy. DH hoovers - he moves furniture, changes attachments and does skirting boards etc. He always does a job 'properly' and I'm kind of jealous that I don't have that motivation!

I do other things and jobs better than DH so maybe we just balance each other out! That's what I tell myself anyway!

Procrastination. I'm fucking terrible for it.

That and untidyness. It is BAD.

Picking at food when I'm not even hungry / not even enjoying what I'm eating!

I talk over people Blush I’m embarrassed and think it’s one reason I don’t have many friends. I also talk too much and sometimes say random stuff that makes me cringe later

I'm a bit of a control freak/micro manager
