There’s Something Really Powerful About Groups And Shared Experiences. People Might Be Skeptical About Their Ability To Change If They’re By Themselves, But A Group Will Convince Them To Suspend Disbelief. A Community Creates Belief.

Once People Learned How To Believe In Something, That Skill Started Spilling Over To Other Parts Of Their Lives, Until They Started Believing They Could Change. Belief Was The Ingredient That Made A Reworked Habit Loop Into A Permanent Behavior.

Once You Understand That Habits Can Change, You Have The Freedom And The Responsibility To Remake Them. Once You Understand That Habits Can Be Rebuilt, The Power Of Habit Becomes Easier To Grasp And The Only Option Left Is To Get To Work.

At Some Point, If You're Changing A Really Deep-seated Behavior, You're Going To Have A Moment Of Weakness.

Then One Day, We’ll Put The Reward In The Old Place, And Put In The Rat, And, By Golloy, The Old Habit Will Rememerge Right Away. Habits Never Really Disappear. They’re Encoded Into The Sturctures Of Our Brain, And That’s A Huge Advantage For Us, Because It Would Be Awful If We Had To Relearn How To Drive After Every Vacation. The Problem Is That Your Brain Can’t Tell The Difference Between Bad And Good Habits, And So If You Have A Bad One, It’s Always Lurking There, Waiting For The Right Cues And Rewards.
