Journal Writing Prompt: Habits

By Dee · Monday, October 30th, 2006

“We are what we repeatedly do; Excellence, then, is not an act, but, a habit.”

~Aristotle

In your journal, consider today’s quote. Look at each piece of the quote.

“We are what we repeatedly do” - do you agree or disagree with that statement? Why?

“Excellence, then, is not an act, but a habit.” - Is excellence an act? Is it a habit? What are your views on excellence?

Journal writing prompt bonus: (Introspection Alert!) Examine your own life - not just today, but, look back over the past few years. What habits do you have? How did they develop? Is excellence a habit you have or an act you perform? What’s the difference? Compare and contrast your habits with “excellence”. What are the similarities? Differences?

Happy Journaling!
