You are a creature of habit because it's the path of least resistance. Habits seem an easier, softer way of living, but like many prescription medications, there are negative side effects - some worse than the disease itself. Among the worst are the limitations they bring to your life. Habits - even good ones, bind you to a certain way of thinking, feeling, acting and reacting. If there's a better way - and there always is a better way, you let it pass. The path most traveled is easier to follow and less risky. This is how you miss many good opportunities. No pain, no gain; no risk no success.
