The Power of Habit: Why We Do What We Do in Life and Business by
Charles Duhigg
My rating:
5 of 5 stars
I chose this ebook because I have an amateur's interest in neuroscience and I enjoy well-written books for the general public where the scientific studies may be of help.
Habits are made of three parts: cue, routine, and reward. "...habits, as much as memory and reason, are at the root of how we behave. We might not remember the experiences that create our habits, but once they are lodged within our brains, they influence how we act--often without our realization."
"To change a habit, keep the old cue, and deliver the old reward, but insert a new routine." I look forward to changing, by experimentation, routines which no longer serve me.
I recommend this book to all readers!
