Do you have a habit you're struggling to break?

Question

I struggle with lying & lateness. I always lie to avoid trouble or just make things easy for myself. I don't mean to but I do it. It's just little lies, nothing major, but I find myself often lying. Like example, my new boss must have noticed my late coming habit cos we passed by each other today around 10:am which was after I sneaked into the office after hiding my handbag with security so it would not look like I just stepped in. He stopped me and said "Glory, looks like you're really into late coming."My response was "No Sir, I've been here. I came early and left to get something." Then he nodded & we dispersed & I could tell he didn't look convinced. Lateness is so bad my boyfriend calls to ensure I leave the house on time so I reach work early. Which is one of the reasons he also wants me to stop working. The lying has already crept into my relationship. I lied about money. He gives me monthly allowance but I wanted more to get an expensive wig I admired on a coworker. Don't get me wrong, I'm not covetous. But I lied that I needed to help a sick colleague with finance, so he gave me more money & I got the wig. He knows how expensive the wig is so when he saw it on me he asked how I afforded it. So I lied again that a girlfriend of mine who he also knows gifted it to me. Then he wanted to thank her so I lied that I lost her number. Now I have to go and cover up with her Incase they happen to run into each other or something. This incident let me know how bad I am and I need to change but don't know how. What habits do you have and how are you dealing with it?

Biggest habits for me have probably been procrastination and some laziness. I tend to be very chill and easy-going with things, naturally. Lately I've been trying to be more proactive with getting things done before I get too complacent. Having a daily list and schedule has helped out a lot more with that, rather than how spontaneous I used to be with my day.

lying makes for more lies and they do come to a head before too long which in time will ruin your relationship and as far as being late it's not cool or cute its inconsiderate, so you have a lot to work on the lying might be too late the damage might have already been done

Hmm for me it's procrastination. Literally prevents me from my success but the reason I procrastinate is due to how I am now at the stage where 'almost' everything I need to elevate myself professionally in other avenues outside my 9 to 5 is there. I just have to be the one to move the ball up the hill so I can watch that B---h roll down and create the most pleasurable domino effect ever. And it SCARES THE LIVING ISH out of me. fear of success is such a B---h. This some next level, " get over your fears" stuff and to hear that the fears just keep coming and you just get better at handling them? Bruh, my anxiety is shaking. 😩 Its why I read smut works a lot pfftt hahahaha!

1. I have Monopoly on my PC and I'm constantly playing it.
2. Since COVID I developed the bad habit of sleeping in. And I'm still doing it.
3. I love to get large and refillable popcorn and large soda at the movies. I go about 3 times a week. I do offset this by going to the gym afterward, so I don't gain weight. I would rather go to the movie without eating junk food but that takes the fun out of it.
4. I have a bad habit of postponing yard work until it's absolutely necessary or the neighbors will start complaining.
5. I have a bad habit of glancing at Chaturbate. I don't watch it for very long, maybe 2 minutes, but I keep glancing at it.

By lying, you're actually creating more trouble for yourself

If you're having a problem with being late, trying going to bed on time, and setting an alarm. If you continue being late to work, they'll fire you, and then you'll probably learn

•Not being able to get into a routine… I used to be able to stick to eating clean so easily as well as going to the gym everyday. Now however I struggle to stick to routine.
•My sleep schedule… I can’t get enough sleep no matter how much I try
•thinking positively as much as I can. It’s easy to think badly or sad or complain and hearing everyone around you be like that, it’s hard not to as well.
