ADVICE

Untangling Habits

  • Untangle habits by addressing the easiest aspect first, similar to untying a knot.
  • Don't attempt to break habits through brute force; instead, identify and address the most manageable components individually.
INSIGHT

Breaking vs. Untangling

  • The term "break" in "break a habit" misrepresents the process of habit change.
  • It implies a sudden, forceful act rather than the gradual untangling required.
ADVICE

Fogg Behavior Model for Stopping Habits

  • Use the Fogg Behavior Model (motivation, ability, trigger) to stop unwanted behaviors.
  • First, try removing the trigger for the behavior; if that's impossible, make the behavior harder to perform.
