Embedded Files
When you fall into a pattern, you become comfortable staying even when it isn't good for you. You eventually become part of that pattern and mistake it for your identity, for instance, you procrastinate, sleep in late, and don't take school seriously, then when you think about who you are you think of those things you do day-to-day and consider it your identity. It takes 14 days to break a pattern or bad habit, that's two weeks of discipline and self-growth to better your future self. you need to understand that a pattern doesn't define you, YOU define you. Only you can control the outcome of your life, no one else can. It's up to you to defeat the pattern of your lower self to eventually unravel your higher self, once you do that, patterns will not be able to define you.
