you wear it well
My last post /habits-1 suggested 'homing' as an alternative to habits. However, inhabiting the constants of my day has led to creating a 'capsule wardrobe' of useful repetitive actions. I think the following is the best way to wear habits well...
like my real wardrobe (all of 13 inches wide) only keep a few classic habits rather than having a wall's worth of trendy ones which don't really suit you or are not even yours!
wear habits loosely and occasionally try wearing them slightly differently
keep them as simple and pleasurable to wear as possible
always make them personal and as close fitting as you can
love them, adapt them and ensure they're appropriate for now's weather
never just act 'out of habit' - that would make you naked! [And possibly suggest your habit is either worn out or has become an addiction.]
appreciate their texture and feel every time you put one on!
