When you do the wrong thing, knowing it is wrong, you do so because you haven't developed the habit of effectively controlling or neutralizing strong inner urges that tempt you, or because you have established the wrong habit and don't know how to eliminate them effectively.

  • -- W. Clement Stone W.克莱门特石

当你做了错误的事情,你知道它是错误的,你这样做是因为你没有养成有效控制或中和诱惑你的强烈内心冲动的习惯,或者是因为你已经养成了错误的习惯,不知道如何有效地消除它们。
