The brain will try to make almost any routine into habit. • Habits are a three step process: • Cue – a trigger that tells your brain to go into automatic mode. • Routine – physical, mental, emotional sequence • Reward – physical or emotional • When a habit emerges, the brain stops fully participating in decision making.
