We know that smoking will eventually kill us, that eating the wrong foods will make us fat, that not exercising will weaken our bodies. We know that neglecting the dishes in the sink will attract pests and that procrastination will have a negative impact on our work. Why do we do things that we know are destructive and why is it so hard to stop ourselves?
Part of it comes from a lack of coping skills. If we haven’t developed the ability to combat the ups and downs of everyday life, then we are more likely to turn to bad habits to soothe ourselves.
So what steps can we take to combat bad habits before they completely take over our lives? We can replace them with better ones!
The Cue – Almost all habitual cues fit into one of these five categories:
The Routine – This is effectively the habit itself; the behavior that has become second nature.
The Reward – A reward satisfies a craving or a need, and your brain learns to repeat routines that produce rewards. Your brain connects the cue to the reward, making you anticipate the reward as soon as the cue is read. This is how the routine becomes a habit.
