Summary of The Power Of Habit (Charles Duhigg)
Book Abstract
Habits can be changed if you understand how they work. At the core of every habit you have lies a reasonably simple neurological loop:
Habits
Cue ⇒ Routine ⇒ Reward
If you want to change and reshape your habits for the better:
Identify the routines you currently follow – and figure out how you can change your routines so you swap vices for virtues.
Experiment with different rewards – until you can isolate what you're actually craving when you do something habitually. If you can figure out what you're genuinely craving, then you understand how to make a desired behavior automatic.
Isolate the cue that triggers your habit – what it is that signals it's time to do something. There are in practice only five types of cues: location, time, your emotional state, other people or an immediately preceding action. Figure out what sparks your habit to occur.
Then develop a new plan – for what you'll do differently the next time that cue arises. When you get right down to basics, habits are formulas your brain automatically follows: When you see a CUE, you do a ROUTINE in order to get the REWARD. To change your habit, keep the cue and the reward the same and insert a new routine.
"Obviously, changing some habits can be more difficult. But this framework is the place to start. Sometimes change takes a long time. Sometimes it requires repeated experiments and failure. But once you understand how a habit operates – once you diagnose the cue, the routine and the reward – you gain power over it. Transforming a habit isn't necessarily easy or quick. It isn't always simple. But it is possible. And now we understand
