The author of other previously published books, namely, Pursuit of God’s Kind of Goodness, Living A Life of Purpose, Stop Blaming God and Unforgiving Heart, Molaakgosi has since established herself as a local scribe focusing on motivational and inspirational writing. First printed and published in 2023, Molaakgosi says, “Break Bad Habits seeks to demonstrate how trying to end one’s unwanted habits can be easily achieved by God’s grace.” Arts&Culture visited the evocative author to find out what inspired her to write the book. “I observed that when things go wrong in our lives, we blame it on others and forget to look into ourselves.
We must always be conscious about what we do and how often we do it because it can simply develop into a good or bad habit. With that in mind, we must break those bad habits which are acting against us,” she said. As to how the book’s title, Break Bad Habits was conceived, Molaakgosi emphasised the need to nourish good habits. She continued: “Bad habits sabotage our goals, missions and our intentions. It is therefore upon us as individuals to introspect and purpose in our hearts that we desire to break out of these bad habits, which are bringing more harm than good to us. Good habits must be nourished and maintained because they lead us to live a better life. However, bad habits sabotage our goals, missions and our intentions. They start as small things which in turn, if not taken care of, can control us. We continuously do them even though they are self-destructive.” From the initial 100 copies that were printed, Molaakgosi says, the sales have been good so far as almost all copies have been taken.
