Behavior: How to Become a Better You

Malcolm Gladwell told us it would take 10,000 hours of practice to become an expert at anything, while Josh Kaufman countered that it takes only 20 hours to learn anything fast. But, how can I just develop a taste for broccoli and become a healthier me? “For it is God which worketh in you both to will and to do of His good pleasure” (Philippians 2:13 KJV). According to God’s Heavenly Word, He is able to change my heart and longings to agree with His purpose for me. First things first. Does God want me to develop a taste for broccoli? “For everything created by God is good, and nothing is to be rejected if it is received with gratitude” (1Timothy 4:4 NASB). Gladwell says I’ll be an expert at eating broccoli after 10,000 hours. Kaufman says I’ll get the hang of eating broccoli after 20 hours. And, my Father assures me I’ll like broccoli, if I eat it with gratitude. LORD, thank you for the broccoli!
