One who makes a habit of prayer will easily overcome all difficulties and remain calm and unruffled in the midst of the trials of life.

Please check these: Excerpts from a discourse by our Sri Sri Muralidhara Swamiji

As repeatedly being said, 'manas' becomes a slave to habit. If you fix up a time for your dhyăna and follow it for about six months, what would you find? The 'manas' goes to dhyăna automatically at the fixed hour.

Just see the power of habit. By the law of habit man attains realization by continuous practice of Japa.

Even if you have no good habit ('sadăcchăra') do not take to wicked ways. Chant the Name of the Lord

One should make it a habit to take the Name of God frequently. Every time a question is put forth to you, stop a while. Do not answer immediately. Take the Name of the Lord twice -- Loudly or within your mind

This good habit [of singing the Divine Names of the Lord] should revive and spread.....

One should practise Japa and meditation at regular times giving up idleness. In such matters one should keep up the practice with unyielding resolution.
