Making Progress On Bad Habit

Since I wrote that short post about opening too many tabs on my computer, I have made a conscious effort to pay attention and limit my tabs opening. I must say that I am getting better at it. If only every bad habit was as easy to fix, life would be a laugh! Are you working on correcting something that you do and that you don't like? Confession time!

Touching my face. I should stop doing that all through out the day as I have very sensitive skin. Unconsciously I touch my face ever so often and it woukd result to having pimples every now and then.

That habit should be fairly easy to break compared to other habits. Tabs I can control, eating I can't LOL

I also open multiple tabs at a time and keep working on them. I find it difficult to close the tabs.

From the answers I am getting from this post, it looks like a ton of us are doing the same bad habit.

Hmm I always have a few windows and a few score tabs open. It really slows my comp down.. maybe I should stop doing this.. but its easier that way lol and you don;t have to wait for each tab to load.

It is easier but it does slow down the computer.

I used to keep a few different tabs open while online also, but now I just have a couple open. On the correction issue, I'm (always) trying to cut down on my snacks between meals, its my life to continue to try to stop or curb that habit.

I am trying not to be so cranky. I get easily irritated, and I'd blame my pain issues except I've always been that way, it's just gotten worse. I'm trying to be better, since I hurt my niece's feelings once when she and my sister were visiting. So yes, I am trying. I actually was surprised that opening multiple tabs would slow the computers these days. Congrats on limiting it.

I don't know what does that. My bird is noisy and lately i've been putting her in another room. Chirp chirp chirp. I never want to be mean to her as she is just a little bird. But sometimes i want to tell her to SHUT UP!

Being retired, I am prone to wasting some time, though I stay active, trying for the fourth time in life to play guitar, playing ping pong, shooting pool and writing. When I sit down at the computer, I can get lost in trivia if I am not careful, which is usually a waste of time.

I always keep tons of tabs open on my computer all the time. Is that a bad thing to do?

I am too in the habit of opening too many tabs in the explorer. Trying to change that. We are in the same boat it seems.
