• View problems as challenges
  
• Create your own learning toolbox
• Use technology to your advantage

The easiest habit for me would be the use of technology for my advantage, because I already like playing with new, fun electronics and web applications. The hardest would be to begin with a goal in mind, because I generally go into projects not knowing exactly where it'll lead (it's a bad habit of mine).
