James Clear on Huberman Lab giving four keys to behavior change
To actually change behavior/reach your goals, he found the following four steps are key: 1. Make it obvious. Make sure the environment supports your choice. Give yourself prompts/cues to get started, and start (over and over again). 2. Make it attractive. Remember what you benefit, hold the feeling you are wanting to achieve in mind. 3. Make it easy. Remove friction anywhere you can. 4. Make it satisfying. Make sure the actions you take to get there are fun, rewarding, fulfilling enough to get you to do it/begin again even when it's hard. Some other key points he makes that resonate for me are 1. There's not ONE WAY to change behavior, but the above keys can be applied to many different approaches. 2. Different phases of life will require different habits to achieve maximum enjoyment. ADAPTABILITY is key. 3. Doing something is almost always infinitely better than doing nothing. 4. Set the minimum bar low so it is easy to start/hard to talk yourself out of, even on the hard/bad weather days.
