Habits

Apr 22, 2023 | Thoughts & Musings

A habit is a behavior that has been repeated enough times to become automatic.
The process of habit formation begins with trial and error. Whenever you encounter a new situation in life, your brain must make a decision. The habit-forming process now begins. Try, fail, learn, try again, try differently – with practice, the useless movements fade away and the useful actions get reinforced. That’s a habit forming.

Habits are, simply, reliable solutions to recurring problems in our environment.
Habits are mental shortcuts learned from experience. In a sense, a habit is just a memory of steps you previously followed to solve a problem in the past. Whenever the conditions are right, you draw on this memory and automatically apply the same solution. The primary reason the brain remembers the past is to better predict what will work in the future.
