What good habits do you have?

I think that habits are one of the things that have the greatest influence on a person's chance of success in life however you may define success... What good habits do you have that you believe has helped you?

clean, organized, thorough.

am i allowed to post here since i'm from the us? ah well.
 
I never whine about things. I might mention it once with a casual informative tone, then I'll usually shut up about it. Not quite sure whether that's a definitive good thing in general, but it seems to work in terms of keeping the very few friends I have.

I'm also very organized when I have to be I guess. :3

Oh god going through my habits, they're all so destructive!
Uhm... I get enough sleep at night? (I sleep until 1 in the afternoon...)
I always find hope? Is that a habit? Damnit.
Oh I got one, I write when i'm in a horrible mood lately rather than doing something I'll regret.

The closest thing to a good habit that I can think of is that I always get my feelings & emotions out. I always write them down & never keep them in so I don't have to be burdened by them as much.

I always leave the toilet seat down, and sadly, it took me like twenty minutes to think of that. :D

My good habits are few and far between, I think.

I shave every day now so I feel fresh instead of every 2-3 days, that habit took a few weeks to get into, small victories

I always try to be polite, even when I'm treated rudely. I'm also quite frugal, though I dunno if that's a habit, but still. I can't stand spending money.

i have a habit of automatically putting my seatbelt on when i get in the car ..? :) i've been that way since i was little, and my car is all about safety first, she screams at me whenever i don't have my seatbelt on....

my 'nervous habit' is drinking water, so that's good i guess? anytime i go anywhere, i bring a bottle of water with me and i constantly drink water..

....and i also generally have good manners. i'm polite and say thank you and yes sir, no ma'am. that's just part of being a southern belle ;) hahaaa

Starting to do that water thing. Hard to keep it going when getting deep into work. Usually the bottle gets left in the car. Nothing like drinking hot water.

Also do the sir, ma'am. Followed by a quick nod, no eye contact. Then out and done.

I can't tell you how many half-empty bottles of water I've had to toss out due to being left in my car ::eek::

I buy a 24 pack of water once a week, sometimes twice. Most of them get fully used though lol.

At least you are doing that, thumbs up. Your (future) wife/gf is very lucky

I think habits dont necessarily affect your success in life at least career wise... Some people are good in a certain aspect of life such as career, relationships, etc while they fail in other parts..
