Or, the official topic for this week is…

My Bad Habits

I have several. Who better to tell us our bad habits than our significant other? The one my husband complains the most about is my iPhone addiction. I’ve tried to explain that scrolling through emails and looking at Facebook is all business, but he’s not buying it!

Other Bad Habits

Overly optimistic to-do lists–lists that bring discouragement instead of a sense of accomplishment. Lists that result from an overly optimistic estimate of how quickly an item can be accomplished and checked off.

Saying YES too much! Oh dear, Lord, I have to get a handle on this one. I’m currently the Secretary of my Toastmaster’s Club (not a demanding position, thank goodness), a Vice President for one of my local RWA chapters, and on the organizing committee for the 2019 California Dreamin’ Conference. Oh, and I’m also helping with online class moderation. Enough, already!

Procrastination

Though I have no wiggle room for procrastinating, I still manage some of it, especially confronted with a task or technology that takes me out of my comfort zone. I truly believe that growth doesn’t happen unless you step out of that zone, so I wind up dancing between enjoying the easy stuff and pushing myself to get the hard stuff done!

What about you? What are your bad habits?

Hop along with my fellow MFRW authors and see what they have to say on this subject!

Bad Habits: Addicted to my iPhone, #MFRWAuthor Blog Challenge, Week 35 — 16 Comments

  1. Love the concept of an overly optimistic to-do list. That absolutely describes mine. Enjoyed your post 🙂

    • It’s very hard when you’re a people-pleaser like me, but gosh, it’s so important to set boundaries.

  4. You’re not alone in having an iPhone addiction. Most people do these days. I finally got a smart phone this year, so I’m using mine more than usual, but trying hard not to get addicted to it.

    I hear you on saying yes too easily. I have a similar problem, though not as bad as some.

    • I do love my smart phone for the convenience and the many apps. I just need to put it away and have more people time.

  8. I fuss at my husband about his phone addiction. He too claims it’s work (and in some case it is) but after at the very least 6pm work is over and it’s time to focus on family time.
