Episode notes
Use The Habit Loop Intentionally
- Build habits using the cue → routine → reward loop to make behaviors automatic.
- Choose clear cues and immediate rewards to strengthen new habits quickly.
Reinforce New Habits With Scheduled Rewards
- Use a three-week reward cycle: small reward after week one and a bigger reward after three weeks.
- Repeat the cycle if the habit doesn't feel ingrained yet instead of punishing yourself.
Routine Is Replaceable; Cue-Reward Drive Behavior
- The cue and reward are what actually link a habit; the routine is replaceable.
- Change routines, not cues or rewards, to alter existing habits more reliably.
