Greeting Everyone , In this Article i will share with you guys what basically habit is , How it build and how it affect you and your Life ...

Habits, by definition, are choices that we all make deliberately at some point—and then stop thinking about but continue doing, often every day. At one point, we all consciously decided how much to eat and what to focus on when we got to the office, how often to have a drink or when to go for a jog. But then we stopped making a choice, and the behavior became automatic...this automatic behaviour which we do without thinking anything is basically called Habits ...

Throughout a day, we make a lot of choices, and each of these decision feels like a well-throughout decision.However, in reality, they are not. They are just our habits, and our brain constantly uses them to save effort.

Habits are very interesting; they can happen naturally or can be orchestrated by you or someone else. The majority of our habits dont require our permission.Our habits play a big part in our life more than we realize.

For example, if you are used to drinking coffee just after waking up. You would do that irrespective of you brushing your teeth or not. This is a clear example of how habit has more influence on you than even common sense....similary if you have the habit of checking your mobile , you will certainly do it without thinking of anything else ...

THE POWER OF HABIT LOOPS:

3 STEPS TO STARTING (OR STOPPING) HABITS OF ANY KIND.

To start a habit of any kind we must go through a habit loop which involve The process within our brains is a three-step loop.

First, there is a cue, a trigger that tells your brain to go into automatic mode and which habit to use.

Then there is the routine,which can be physical or mental or emotional.

Finally, there is a reward, which helps your brain figure out if this particular loop is worth remembering for the future.

In simple words If you want to create new habits of any kind, keep the following formula in mind:

CUE + ROUTINE + REWARD = HABIT

All the new habits , no matter of what kind it is ,always depend on this three-step loop:

1. The cue—a trigger for your brain that tells it which habit to use. 

2. The routine—how a habit influences what you do, think, or feel. 

3. The reward—which helps us determine how valuable the habit is, and whether it’s worth remembering or not....

So Now i will try to tell you guys about the effects of habits....

1 ...How Does Your Habit affect You ?

I guess Habit has great influence on our character ...Habits build our character: Character is nothing but a sum of all your habits and If you have good habits like waking up early, cleaning your room daily, working out, etc..

Your character is nothing but the difference between your good habits and your bad habits and If your good habits outweigh and outnumber your bad habits, your character is much better build than most people......Your Habit always leads to your character , so You have to work from the begining that is building good habits which will eventually lead you to a good positive character ....

2. Habits can make or break your life :

I think another effect of habit is on our decision making... Our entire day is filled with habits driven decisions. So, if you have a lot of good habits, you will make a good decision for yourself , your bussiness and all the things related to you ...Imagine, you have a test or some important work the next day, and you need to prepare for it. A good habit would be to prepare early and chill for the rest of the day.But if you procrastinate, you are vulnerable to unforeseen hurdles, which usually lies in an important task.

3. Habit trigger happiness :

Habits is directly related to happiness because our all our daily works depends on our habits ..if we have good habits , we must be happy throughout but if we have bad habits like being angry on every situation , it will leads us to depression ....similary if we have good habits , we will be able to make good decisions and eventualyy our work and everything will be fine and bring happines to us ..

On lighter note , our habits defines the destiny of our life ...all our works , daily life and all other things needs our good habit..if we have good habits , we will be eventually be happy and healthy .....

Note : I have not discussed all aspects of habits in order to avoid any boring situation ....will looking for some addition from you guys in the comment section ...

Thank You ...
