Sichgewöhnen, self-habituating

The whole question of self-habituating (Sichgewöhnen) must be seen from the look of the possibility (Möglichkeit) on which appropriation (Aneignung) depends. It depends on being-resolved (Entschlossensein) at each moment, and on the appropriating of the moment (Aneignen des Augenblicks). Aristotle’s saying “on the basis of acting-frequently” (Öfter-Handeln) is also to be understood in this way. Here, this acting-frequently does not mean often in the sense of a duration (Dauer), such that it would have ultimately become routine (Routine) after a determinate amount of time. Rather, it is related to πρᾶξις as προαίρεσις: continual-repeating (Immer-Wiederholen) of προαίρεσις. The frequently is, precisely, that which characterizes the temporality (Zeitlichkeit) of being-there. Aristotle cannot say ἀεί insofar as human being-there does not so comport itself constantly and always. It can constantly be otherwise. The always (Immer) of a being (Seiende) like being-there is the frequently of repetition (Öfter der Wiederholung). It is the being-there of human beings, as determined by historicality (Geschichtlichkeit), to see entirely different time-contexts (Zeitzusammenhänge) in relation to which the remaining time-determinations (Zeitbestimmungen) break down.
