- Just keep at it and keep going — exercise, eat healthy food, planning and spending time constructively etc., — and the desired habit will eventually stick. Be consistent and do something about it instead of nothing at all.
- Forming habits is a matter of simply repeating the desired behavior until it sticks, no matter how little pleasure you derive from it. Discipline is doing the right thing even when you don’t feel like doing it.
- Determined habits form when a neural pathway activated by some action you’ve taken becomes reinforced through repetition. This is often applicable to both good and bad habits/. It’s why we often find ourselves making the same bad choice over and over: We’re not really choosing at all, but just traveling automatically down a familiar default behavioral pathways.
- Habit beats reward. Habits themselves are a product of our previous actions, but in certain situations those habits can be replaced by our desire to get the best outcome.
