Inspirational quote about habits

Post by BigE » Sat Aug 15, 2009 1:58 pm

I thought there was already a post about quotations, but I can't find it . . .

Sow a thought, reap an act;
Sow an act, reap a habit;
Sow a habit, reap a character;
Sow a character, reap a destiny.

William Thackeray

Here's an article on habits and the brain: neuroplasticity. Very cool.

Thanks! I knew I'd seen it somewhere, and it's sort of different than the catchphrase post. I copied and pasted from my new topic to the old one.
