Persistence.
Posted by Alex Hamilton on April 20, 2007
I’ve been trying to teach myself to take my recyclable shopping bag to the supermarket for ever!
I always remember the shopping list but remembering that bag usually only kicks in when I’m stood at the check-out.
Still, I’ve persisted. Doggedly.
Then this week, I realised that I’ve adopted it as a new unconscious habit.
I just pick it up and take it with me like that’s how it’s always been.
Persistence.
A fabulous thing.
It never crossed my mind to say “Oh, I never remember it; I’m just going to give up trying.”
A lesson in there somewhere.
