On Habits, Rerouting Them, and Using Them to Renew Your Life

✸

To begin to combat automatic behaviors or processes, break your habits up into their components.

Cue. A cue is a trigger that tells your brain to go into automatic mode and which habit to use. This trigger can be anything from a physical location and a person, to a smell, a taste or an emotional state.

Routine. The routine is the activity you are about to perform when you are triggered by a cue. It can be physical, mental or emotional.

Reward. Duhigg refers to the reward as something that helps our brain figure out if a particular loop is worth remembering in the future. The reward is mainly achieved mentally after a connection with something physical like a chocolate or a cigarette.

✸

The more we encounter this loop, the more automatic the habitual process becomes. However, the real moving force behind the habit loop is what Duhigg refers to as cravings. As we associate cues with certain rewards, a subconscious craving emerges in our brains that starts the habit loop spinning. Whenever we crave something, our brain somehow urges us to feel the same feeling we will experience when we actually reach the reward stage of the loop. The stronger the craving, the stronger our desire to perform that particular habit.

Creativity is Productivity

Recently I came upon an article about creativity and productivity by Wall Street Journal best selling book author Scott Young. In it he explores various traits of creative people and how they transition into productivity. Below is an interesting excerpt of his findings. Nearly two centuries ago, the Belgian sociologist Adolphe Quetelet observed the impressively tight link between personal…
