🧠 Habits are reflexive actions that organize our behavior and can be either beneficial or detrimental to our health and goals.
🧪 Habit formation and breaking involve neuroplasticity, which is the process of changing connections between neurons in response to experience.
⏰ The time it takes to form a habit varies between individuals, ranging from 18 to 254 days, depending on factors like motivation and limbic friction.
🧠 The autonomic nervous system determines our state of alertness or calmness, and it affects our ability to engage in certain behaviors.
💪 Limbic friction is the effort required to engage in a particular behavior, and it can be influenced by fatigue or anxiety.
🔑 Linchpin habits are enjoyable habits that make it easier to execute other habits, and they can influence our overall behavior.
🧠 The NMDA receptor triggers mechanisms that make neurons more responsive to input, increasing the likelihood of firing.
🧩 Engaging in a habit-related activity activates the same neurons needed for executing the habit, making it easier to perform.
🔗 Task-bracketing, using specific phases of the day, can help acquire and maintain new habits by engaging the neural circuits associated with action execution and suppression.
The timing of habits can influence their formation and maintenance.
Phase one (0-8 hours after waking) is ideal for adopting difficult habits.
Phase two (9-14 hours after waking) is best for less challenging habits.
Phase three (16-24 hours after waking) supports deep sleep and consolidation.
Phase three of habit formation is about solidifying new habits in the nervous system through neuroplasticity.
The context and timing of habit execution are important for habit formation and achieving context-independence.
Reward prediction error and dopamine play a crucial role in habit formation and reinforcement.
💡 Associating a reward with a series of events can help in forming habits.
⏰ Reward prediction error can be used to navigate long-term goals and habits.
🧠 Dopamine is a molecule of motivation and drive, not just feeling good.
📅 Following a 21-day system of deliberately performing 4-5 new habits can lead to habit formation.
✍️ Chunking the 21-day period into 2-day bins can be helpful in maintaining habits.
❌ Breaking habits can be challenging, but interventions can help.
🔑 Foundation practices, such as stress reduction, good sleep, nutrition, and positive routines, can support breaking habits.
🧠 To break habits, we need to engage in long term depression, a neuroplasticity process that weakens neural connections.
💡 Replacing a bad habit with a positive habit immediately after its execution can disrupt the closed loop of the habit and create a new neural pathway.
🔑 Tacking on additional good behaviors to bad habits can help break them or change their form.
🔄 Breaking bad habits, especially addictive ones, requires a comprehensive intervention.
🧠 Understanding the biology and psychology of habit formation and breaking can help establish healthier habits.
