The application of these rules to one"s daily life must be varied with
each individual. The most practical method is for the individual to
begin the improvement he would seek by constructing a typical day"s
program in which time is provided for, say, breathing and other
exercises in bed, bath, toilet, walk to business, meals, amusement,
etc., with special notes and memoranda as to the particular faults of
omission and commission to be corrected. One might also, as Benjamin
Franklin records in his autobiography, keep a daily record for a week as
to how nearly the program is lived up to. By dint of such and other
stimuli, the transition in habits can be made, after which the 'rules'
cease to be rules, as carrying any sense of restriction, and become
automatic like putting on or taking off one"s clothes.
