I completely hear you on the list of habits for the last five minutes. I started identifying my list and watched it grow and grow until I just had to stop. Great post Mark!

Jason: That's more or less where I'm at now, rotating 7 or so recipes, and rotating a recipe out of the set every now and then, replacing it with a new one. Which reminds me, I haven't cooked moussaka in a while... Jean: No probs on the link, thanks for the comment :) And yes, mastering something need not be complicated, just time consuming :p Mel: Yup, those three are very important keys to fulfillment :) Regarding the challenge, as I mentioned <a href="http://www.todayisthatday.com/blog/7-steps-to-personal-development-with-the-meme-dream-team/#comment-21722" rel="nofollow">here</a> there are more appropriate and respectful ways of issuing a challenge, or even just letting someone know what's going on, such as their contact form. (but yeah, I intend to post the list soon) Jenny: It’s my pleasure, and thanks for the invite!

I have no bad habits, just don't ask my wife. As you stated, conscious repetition is the only way to both break bad habits and form new, good, habits. I have an entire "Process" on my site (about 2/3rds of the way though posting) that deals with, what I call "the Empowerment Triad; Passion, Pleasure & Repetition. Off topic........... I believe that by just being a part of “Priscilla Palmer’s Personal Development listâ€? suggests that each of us post this list. You like me (Killeris at “Attitude, the Ultimate Powerâ€?) are on this list. If you have already posted it, THANK YOU. If you have not posted it, I am officially putting out a challenge that you add additional sites that fit the theme and post the entire list. This is my opinion only. If you disagree I respectfully understand. If you do agree with me this list can be found at: http://mondaymorningpower.blogspot.com/2007/09/personal-development-list-challenge.html On Topic………..

I enjoyed your post. I'm continually forming new habits because I'm learning to blog and to use Adobe (among others) software. For me that's ignoring all I don't know and mastering one small part at a time. And mastering is simply doing something enough so that you don't have to think about it...it's habitual rather than conscious.

I love to cook, but not when it's just for myself. And, incidentally, not when the kitchen is tiny... I need room to lay out my ingredients. When I used to live by myself, however, even with a big kitchen, there wasn't much variety, though I wasn't quite as bad as you say you were... I still made things, it's just that I only rotated through maybe 8 or 10 things, all of which were relatively easy to make (easy to me anyway... lasagna isn't much of a challenge, but it still stumps some people).
