This post is written with my iPod Touch. I will have to use it a lot to post because I have less opportunities to use my laptop now that my home does not have Wi-Fi.
Just wanted to put something else up besides the one post I wrote earlier. At least I have Starbucks.

It is the beginning of 2011 and the start of new years resolutions. My uncle just quit smoking. My aunt is on a diet. I am starting my freelance career. We all have something we want to throw in the trash. A bad habit.
According to Adam Dachis' article on Lifehacker, "How to Break Bad Habits," my uncle's smoking is not a habit, but a substance abuse problem and is different from a regular habit such as biting nails.
"Bad habits are little things that you can fix with a few tricks. Obsessive behavior and substance addiction requires a bit more work, so make sure you concentrate on those issues separately and don't try to break them as easily as you might be able to with a simple habit," says Dachis.
Dachis gives some suggestions on how to identify when you have a bad habit and how to overcome it.
Do you have a new years resolution that involves kicking a bad habit? Check out the article on Lifehacker.
