The 4 laws Of Habit Change
Make It Obvious
**
-
Make it easy to do the good habits. Put fewer steps between you and the good habits and more steps between you and the bad ones.
-
For that, you can create an environment in which you can easily practice your good habits without taking any steps.
-
Creating an environment like that can have a compounded effect on your overall habits. Thereby making it easy for you to do better with other good habits as well.
**
Make It Attractive
**
-
Make your habits attractive, especially when you're first beginning to form a new habit, doing this can reduce the chances of you stopping midway.
-
You can also give yourself a small reward at the end of completing a habit to keep yourself motivated, but can also have a negative effect as you'll only work for it if you get an instant reward at the end of the activity.
**
Make It Easy
**
-
"Friction is the most powerful force in the universe."
-
Make it as easy as you can to do the thing that you desire. Like keeping the dumbbells somewhere where you can see them. This will create a visual cue that you need to work out.
**
Make It Immediately Rewarding
-
Our brains have evolved to prioritize immediate rewards over delayed rewards.
-
"What is Immediately rewarded is repeated. What is Immediately punished is avoided."
-
Make things rewarding Immediately by giving yourself something that you like. EG- Take a nice break after a hard workout session, while you watch a show you like, etc.
