Habits Form from Repeated and Rewarded Behaviors
Habits are not formed simply by repeating a behavior a million times, but by transitioning from the goal system in the brain to the habit system through repetition and reward. The key to establishing a habit lies in feeling rewarded immediately after the behavior. However, the pain or discomfort associated with an activity can hinder the formation of a habit, making it more likely to remain a routine instead.
