When willpower is trumped by bad habits

Thanks Leo...another great post!

Beating old habits isn’t a matter of having a mountain of willpower. It’s a matter of paying attention, doing a small new habit in its place, and using some easy tricks to overcome the forces that work against us.

There are several steps to beating a bad habit...

1. Figure out what your trigger is.

2. Find a replacement habit.

3. Engineer positive & negative feedback.

4. Do the new habit immediately after the trigger, consistently.

5. Beat the urge to do the old habit.
