Transforming Habits into Positive Behaviors
1:50:44 2024-07-25 1664

Once we understand the purpose behind our bad habits, we can work on transforming them into positive behaviors. This process involves identifying the triggers that lead to the habit, understanding the processing of these triggers and the internal activation that they cause, and finding alternative behaviors that provide the same relief but with less damage.

Most people don't seek out replacement behaviors because they believe that their bad habits are freestanding problems. But without understanding the place these habits occupy, any attempt at stopping them will either fail or result in the adoption of another bad habit to replace the first. The key is to replace the bad habit with a positive behavior that satisfies the same need. This way, you're not just eliminating a habit but also creating a new, healthier one in its place.

In Mike's case, because smoking took away the embarrassing vomiting, he was never forced to deal with the crippling social anxiety that brought it on in the first place. I call these underlying drivers of our bad habits "hooks." Mike's social anxiety would have to be resolved to truly beat his smoking addiction forever.
