COT:
In pursuit of virtue and high-impact, you should be working to start/sustain good habits (fitness, nutrition, sleep, prayer, study, meditation, gratitude, etc.) and working to stop/sustain harmful habits (anger, lust, drugs, excess alcohol, junk, porn, etc.). Each of these things will be DIFFICULT…but KEEP AT IT…because one day, they will not be so difficult anymore. They are difficult until they are easy – OR – they never get easy, but you get stronger. If you miss a day, don’t miss two. If (when!) you stumble…START AGAIN. Keep pursuing virtue, brothers.

2 Peter 1:5-8, “…make every effort to add to your faith goodness; and to goodness, knowledge; and to knowledge, self-control; and to self-control, perseverance; and to perseverance, godliness; and to godliness, mutual affection; and to mutual affection, love. For if you possess these qualities in increasing measure, they will keep you from being ineffective and unproductive in your knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.”

”which our more presentable parts do not require. But God has so composed the body, giving greater honor to the part that lacked it, that there may be no division in the body, but that the members may have the same care for one another. If one member suffers, all suffer together; if one member is honored, all rejoice together.“
‭‭1 Corinthians‬ ‭12‬:‭24‬-‭26‬ ‭ESV‬‬
