In this episode we’ll talk about both good, and bad habits, and how they affect our lives. As you go through this episode, you’re encouraged to think about both the habits that you want to have, and the habits that you have but need to break. The science behind habits says there are 3 habits behind how habit formation actually works: 1. Cue - This is the trigger that initiates the habit. These can be either external, or internal. Such as the time of day, an alarm on your phone, your environment, etc. Internal triggers could be your emotional reactions to certain situations, or behaviors of others. 2. Routine - The routine is the actual habit itself. Ie: Caffeine with watching the sunrise, or a cigarette when you’re driving… 3. Reward - Every habit has some type of “reward” to it. Even the bad habits that you don’t want have a “reward” attached to it. Ie If your habit is to overeat, the “reward” is that your body will calm down your brain because it has to reserve it’s energy to try and digest the food. Coaching thousands of people over the past 17 years, I’ve realized that people have a tendency to try and overhaul their entire life when they’re thinking of building habits. This is the quickest way to shoot yourself in the foot, so what I suggest is break down your habits into smaller and super specific habits. The lower the barrier to entry, the more likely you’ll be to do that habit.
