Break bad habits by making them unattractive.
from Atomic Habits: An Easy & Proven Way to Build Good Habits & Break Bad Ones by James Clear
A good method to break bad habits is to make them unattractive.
How to Apply This
-
Start repeating to yourself all the consequences that come from the bad habit.
For example, smoking does not relieve your nerves, it destroys them. -
Reframe the cues.
For example, smoking is not about being social; you can be social without smoking.
