Yesterday was a test for me as I passed Starbucks. The aroma of coffee, the ambiance, their high-tech commercial coffee grinders and friendly staff was not helping in my goal. I stood there for a minute, wondering and really deliberating to myself whether I should get my fix or not. Alas, the better of me said no and the battle was over. I walked away empty handed.
I think I am starting to get very good with this mind-over-matter thing. It is definitely hard to resist the temptations around me in that place but I managed to talk myself out of it. It's for my good so my coffee fix will have to be fixed soon.
