What is something you continue to do although you want to stop?
Smoking. It is the nastiest, unhealthy, most addictive habit I ever regret starting period. I want to quit so badly, but there is always an excuse not to. Stress being the main one. I would definitely have to say smoking. Please never start this nasty habit.
This may help. I heard a pastor say once, God gave humans dominion over plants...just a thought.
Definitely smoking...I have bad lungs...have almost died twice and still cannot quit..I even quit for 3 months and it drove me crazy the whole time...I finally gave in and picked up a cigarette...dumb...now I need to start over, but like you I have every excuse ...I also have fibromyalgia which is very painful and smoking calms me down...I am down to about 6 cigarettes a day and have a vapor cig coming in the mail...so hopefully I can give it another good try.
Until recently I would've said "using tobacco," cuz I had a nasty "dip" habit (i.e. smokeless or "spit" tobacco)...but I gave it up about six months ago and so far have been able to make it stick (fingers crossed!)...
Aside from that, I guess I'd say I should quit eating so many snacks cuz I'm turning into a fat mo-fo.
Procrastinate. I would have never admitted it. But I came to the realization that I procrastinate. I don't know why. There are things that I should be focusing on and they just sit here staring back at me. Like filing. I used to enjoy it. I'm very organized. But now it's work.
Yes, paying taxes....and having to extend answers to Hub questions to make them long enough to be accepted.

Should putting my alcoholic husband in jail for 9 months make him stop drinking alcohol?If it can work, then I just have to fake something that will see him in jail for no less than 9 month.
