How to Create New Habits and Change Existing Habits - The Habit Loop

Описание: How to change your life forever through the power of THE HABIT LOOP! You always have the power to change the direction of your life by creating new habits and changing existing habits.

If you can change your habits, you can change your life.. because, after all, we are creatures of habit. When you wake up in the morning, you probably follow a certain routine… you check your cell phone, check your e-mail, drink a glass of water, get some coffee, and so on. Throughout the day you can count on other habits to occur, even if you are not fully aware of them. We think we’re making well considered decisions… but we're not. Most things that happen throughout the day happen automatically without much thought at all. Habits run your life. If you want to change your life, change your habits.

Fortunately, once you understand how habits work, you can change them with greater success. so i'm going to hit on what habits are, why and how they form, and how to change them.

There are three components to the habit loop: the cue, the routine, and the reward.

The cue is a trigger. for example let's say you drive by one of your favorite restaurants. This cue or trigger, puts your brain into autopilot. You follow a routine (eating at the restaurant), in order to get the reward (tasty food that you love). The cues can be feelings or thoughts, or they can be external, like the time of the day or a even picture.

The routine is the next part of the habit loop. This is the behavior that you take once you have been triggered. This is the behavior that will lead to a reward. This can be an emotional (getting nervous before a test), cognitive, or physical (eating at that restaurant).

The reward is why we do the particular habit loop. It can be physical (chocolate, sugar, etc.), emotional (I feel happy), or cognitive (excited about learning something new). If the activity is something worth doing, we will remember it and it becomes a habit.

In this video I'll talk about how to create new habits and how to change your existing habits!
