Self control, self awareness, self knowledge. I have at lease one bad habit. Conciousness is the opposite of habit. I am practicing catching myself when I start to perform this habit and trying to become aware of what I am feeling, which happens to be nervousness for no good reason, which also happens to fit with the popular idea of a nervous habit. And I can stop it. I don't know if I can stop the nervousness, that seems to be the next step and I haven't gotten far enough to know what that step is exactly. I can ask the question - what's making me so nervous? Or, why is everything making me so nervous? Or, why is a particularly relaxing situation making me nervous?
