0Warren Buffett once said, "Habits are like chains. They start off light and barely noticeable, but eventually become heavy and impossible to break free from."
Often, a person's happiness and health are directly related to their habits. This is the fundamental reason why I decided to quit smoking. I know that smoking is a bad habit, and I also understand that the older I get, the harder it becomes to break the inertia of habits. So, I made the decision to quit before I turn 30.
Every year, I set goals for myself, taking into consideration the cultivation of good habits. By achieving these goals, I not only accomplish something specific but also develop positive habits along the way. It's like hitting two birds with one stone, and I truly enjoy the process and results of continually cultivating and refining my habits.
It's important to be aware of bad habits. Here, journaling comes to my rescue (another one of my good habits). I frequently reflect on my recent behaviors in my journal and identify any negative habits. Remembering that habits start off lightly and are hard to detect in the beginning, it's crucial to be conscious of them. Self-awareness is something we can work on throughout our lives.
I believe this is not just about habits; it's about compound interest. Only those who benefit from good habits truly understand the true meaning of compound interest.

关于习惯
巴菲特说：习惯的枷锁，开始的时候轻的难以察觉，到后来却重的无法摆脱。
很多时候一个人幸不幸福，健不健康都和其习惯有直接的关系。这也是我戒烟的根本原因，我知道抽烟是一个不好的习惯，并且也知道越是年纪大，惯性越大，越难戒掉。于是决定在我30 岁之前戒掉它。
每年我都会给自己设立一些目标，这些目标的设立就会考虑习惯的养成。在达成某个目标的同时也养成了一些好的习惯，简直就是一箭双雕，并且我也挺享受这种不断养成修正习惯的过程和结果。
还有坏习惯是需要觉察的，这里日记又帮上了我大忙（日记也是我良好习惯之一），经常会在日记里去反思自己最近有哪些不好的习惯，记住它在开始的时候轻的难以察觉，同时一开始的时候也是最容易跟正的。觉察自己是一生可以做的事情。
我觉得这不仅仅是习惯，更是复利，只有受益于好习惯的人，才会明白复利的真正含义。
