Bad habits

in #psychology7 years ago

The habit is automatism. And this automatism is only a consequence of a deeply hidden cause. That is why, in order to eradicate any bad habit, it is necessary, first of all, to clearly determine its cause. Otherwise, the habit will not only disappear, but may even worsen.

In the formation of any habits are mental states. For example, due to stress people start to nail their nails, overeat, gnaw lips and foreign objects and, of course, smoke.

But, of course, we are not always able to resist the temptation to return to our beloved habit. And in the event that the main reason for our desire to get rid of it does not work, we can create for ourselves several points of no return. Think, for example, that if you start smoking again, whatever you do, you will always be late for the bus, and at home you will always be waiting for something that makes you ill. Or another good way is a simple argument. Conclude with his wife a bet that if you suddenly smoke, she will do "what should". It will be a great motivation for you to forget cigarettes for a long time. You can think of anything, anything.

New habit
The decision was made, "bridges burned," you can not retreat back. But what to do, if you want so just-one-time-dragging out? That the old habit does not prevail over you, you must replace it with a new one, but not harmful, but useful! And this new useful habit must certainly bring the same positive emotions. If "to return to our sheep", it turns out that the best new habit is to leave work a little earlier, while having a good time sucking on a candy. First, you will be on the bus, secondly, stop harming your health, thirdly, the mouth will taste not tobacco, and, for example, strawberries, and fourthly, at home instead of rolling, you will wait for a delicious dinner and pleased wife.which will not break any "rolling pin". It is here that you will manifest all your willpower.
