It’s hard to build good and healthy habits even though we all know what those habits are. Here is my take on why it’s not just willpower that creates a habit, and why it’s not “bad” to have a bad habit.
Quotes to remember:
“A lot of our habits that were once adaptive are now maladaptive.”
“We don’t need to feel bad about having ‘bad’ or ‘unhealthy’ habits.”
Takeaways:
- Perfectionism is a habit that we had a reason for cultivating
- Our habits are contextual and are learned in certain situations
- Habits are tools to do something in life, not the end
- When we become aware of why we have certain habits and what we want to do, it becomes simpler to develop better habits
What you’ll learn:
- Why we may beat ourselves up over a mistake
- An analogy of habit formation to playing games with different rules
