Breaking Habits By Zodiac Sign
by Katherine Rone
Just for fun, I compiled this list of habit-breaking strategies that typify each zodiac sign. Now, don't worry that you must follow your own zodiac sign's method. Remember, each of us have all the zodiac signs represented in our charts somewhere. Read these as great ideas presented in 12 different flavors, and use what works for you.
Aries: JUST DO IT. The person who came up with this Nike shoe company slogan must have been an Aries. Your approach to a habit is to fully embrace it until you are ready (really ready) to let it go. You will actively and openly smoke, overeat, bite fingernails, etc., as long as you still feel like doing it. When it is no longer fun or useful, you will just quit. Cold Turkey. Boom. You don't dawdle.
Taurus: FIND SOMETHING MORE VALUABLE. You are inspired by whatever is valuable to self and others. When you decide that a habit is no longer worthy of your time and energy, you find the will to quit. Research a number of avenues, and choose the one that fits your lifestyle and temperament. Then follow it step-by-step.
Gemini: CALL EVERYONE and ask how they would do it. Gemini is a social butterfly, and needs to interact with others in the nearby vicinity. You could talk to others and survey the pros and cons of many techniques. Then, you might start a newsletter on the subject that keeps everyone swapping information. Personally, Gemini will hop from one technique to another, using an eclectic approach that might drive others crazy, but works beautifully for you.
Cancer: FIND A BETTER SOURCE OF COMFORT. Cancer, you are a master at nurturing others, but sometimes forget to love yourself. All habits serve our needs, but with you this is more pronounced. You can best end an old habit by finding a better way to self-nurture. Trade snack or smoke time for warm-fuzzy time: massage, bubble bath, meditation, or hugging and being with loved ones.
Leo: DRAMATIZE IT. Leo likes attention, everyone! Audience reaction to your life is very helpful, and you know how to make your life story interesting. You can divert the energy of your habit into writing a novel, making a movie, or singing a song about the travails and ultimate success of your adventure. You often see life as a drama, so write a habit-breaking script for yourself.
