Virtue is a habit in accord with reason, like a second nature

Cicero

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

Aristotle

In truth, the only difference between those who have failed and those who have succeeded lies in the difference of their habits. Good habits are the key to all success. Bad habits are the unlocked door to failure.

Og Mandino, "The Greatest Salesman in the World"

Often we imitate the habits of three social groups:

• Closest circle (e.g., family)
• Majority
• Influencers (opinion leaders)
