New Article: Building Civic Habits
Posted by Forbes on October 22, 2024
Humans are habit forming. Some of those habits come from our parents: brushing our teeth each morning and night. Some come from our age: staying up late or procrastinating on our homework. Some come from our peers: scrolling on social media or trendy catch phrases of the era. I still remember saying that nearly everything around me was “wicked cool” when I was 20! Many of our lifelong habits are ones we form during our teens and 20s and will stick with us for a lifetime.
That means that students and young people alike (18-29 year olds) are at the perfect point in life to choose which habits they want to define them for the rest of their lives! So why not start today to engage in the voting process to ensure it can be a lifelong practice.
