IT TAKES 21 consecutive DAYS
of doing anything regulary/daily for it to become a 'habit,' is a generally accepted (scientific?) principle is what I've always heard.
it's said that it also takes 21 days to break a habit - replace it with another as said by another poster....

using classical conditioning you can break a habit by implementing negative reenforcement. But some psychologists think that positive reenforcement will change a habit faster than negative reenforcement.

search a better thing to do / to beleive a better value than the one to break. it is pointless to break habit over nothing.
