Jokes aside, practice and repetition are really the best ways to build new habits. As Keith said, be cautious about taking a break - it can really throw you off course. Start with one habit first, and concentrate on building it for a month. Eventually the resistance will fade and carrying it out will be much easier.
My high school physics teacher once said that to really excel in the subject, I needed to make the material "my own". I believe this approach works for habits too. When you start, it's somebody else's habit, but as you move forward it begins to change into something that is personal and works for you.
