Deep dives
Understanding Habits and Neuroplasticity
Habits are behaviors that transition from conscious decisions to automatic responses in our brain. Our brain's neuroplasticity allows for rewiring based on experiences. Triggers initiate behavior, leading to a reward that reinforces it.
Creatures of Habit and Learning Process
Humans develop habits easily due to our brain's tendency to streamline conscious behaviors. We become efficient by relying on automatic responses. Reward-based learning solidifies habits through positive or negative reinforcement.
Analyzing Behavior Patterns and Triggers
Identifying triggers and behaviors is crucial in understanding and potentially changing habits. Internal and external cues influence our responses, leading to habitual behaviors. Writing down triggers and behaviors aids in conscious recognition and evaluation.
Evaluating and Changing Habitual Responses
To change habits effectively, behaviors must be shifted from automatic processing to conscious evaluation. Altering the rewarding aspect of the behavior is key to lasting habit change. Understanding triggers and responses aids in breaking the cycle of unproductive habits.
In episode 21 of The Golf Beneath the Surface Podcast, Dr. Raymond and Chase kick off a three-part series focusing on habits. In part 1, they discuss the differences between behaviors and habits, the anatomy of a habit (trigger, behavior, reward) and how they’re formed. Enjoy!
