I believe that the easiest habit is the first one,it is so easy to set a goal,but it is so difficult to accomplish,to bring it to an end. The hardest one is the second one,the obstacles.
The best example that I can think of is our life style.
To eat well and exercise are divine but there is no surprise that many of us end up fooling ourselves.
Eat right and stay fit is so easy to say and nearly impossible to accomplish.
