2. Join a specific circle and accept the influence of the group to change behavior. For example, I want to cultivate the habit of reading more, make more friends with people who love reading, or join some reading circles.
3. Change the way of thinking and pay more attention to the possible benefits of good habits. For example, if you want to master the ability of fast reading by studying "Elite Speed Reading Memory Training", you can think more about how to master fast reading and how to improve your reading efficiency after reading, so that I can read more books every month and realize my rapid improvement.
4. Weaken the resistance of habit. For example, when choosing a gym, try to choose a place close to home and on the way to and from work. For example, if you want to get up early to make breakfast, you can prepare the tools and ingredients needed for breakfast before going to bed, and you can start cooking immediately after getting up in the morning.
5. adopt micro-habit strategy to make yourself act without pressure. For example, if you want to get into the habit of reading every day, start by reading one page. After reading a page, the behavior belongs to extraordinary play.
6. Immediate results. Our brains attach great importance to timely rewards. But the benefits brought by good habits are usually not immediately available, such as exercise, reading and saving money. The main benefits take time to see, but the direct gains are hard work and discomfort. In this regard, it can be motivated by additional rewards. For example, after reading a book, reward yourself with a movie you want to watch and a big meal (be careful not to let extra rewards conflict with good habits, such as exercise). If you have a big meal on weekends, then exercise is meaningless.
7. Record your habits. For example, whenever you finish the habit of reading every day, put a tick on the corresponding date; Or more specifically, say, read five pages. The advantage of this is that the recorded behavior itself becomes a direct reward. Reading records can make you feel better and better, so that you can be satisfied and persist. In addition, the record will remind you not to give up halfway (it's been so long, it's a pity to give up).
