I am your constant companion.
I am your greatest helper or heaviest burden.
I will push you onward or drag you down to failure.
I am completely at your command.
Half the things you do might just as well be turned over to me and I will be able to do them quickly and correctly.
I am easily managed — you must merely be firm with me. Show me exactly how you want something done and after a few lessons I will do it automatically.
I am the servant of all great people and, alas, of all failures, as well.
Those who are great, I have made great.
Those who are failures, I have made failures.
I am not a machine, though I work with all the precision of a machine plus the intelligence of a person. You may run me for profit or run me for ruin — if makes no difference to me.
Take me, train me, be firm with me, and I will place the world at your feet. Be easy with me and I will destroy you.
Who am I?
I am habit!

Good or bad habits are formed in as little as 21 days. You determine your habits, not others. If you want to be a Christian writer who influences others positively, then start by developing Godly habits that propel you to fulfill your dream.
The book of Proverbs is an excellent place to start your journey of making good habits. Start by examining what Solomon had to say about wise and unwise living. Solomon asked God for wisdom, and God was so pleased with his request, that He gave him more wisdom than any man before or since.
The book of Proverbs is God's gift to us. With wisdom you will not only develop better habits, but you'll discover what you should be leaving behind. Surrender to God and ask Him to help you "let go." Experience the freedom that He offers. You'll never see the fulfillment of your dreams without the positive habits that will carry and keep you in that place God has called you.
