Beschreibungen
The founder of the hugely popular PsyBlog demonstrates how to bend habits to your willHabits are more powerful than your will if you know how to make them work for you Two strings are hanging from a ceiling, one at the centre of the room, one near the wall. Youre asked to tie the strings together, but you cant reach both at the same time. You look around the room and see a table and a pair of pliers. How would you solve the problem? When confronted with challenges, most people let habits rule them (in this case, ignoring the pliers, the creative tool at your disposal). That is not surprising when you realise that at least a third of our waking hours are lived on auto-pilot ruminating over past events, clicking through websites trawling for updates and the like. Such unconscious thoughts and actions are powerful. But the habits of the mind do not have to control us we can steer them. Drawing on hundreds of fascinating studies, psychologist Jeremy Dean the mind behind the hugely popular and insightful website PsyBlog shares how the new brain science of habit can be harnessed to your benefit, whether youre hoping to eat moreveg, take an evening run, clear out your email backlog, or be more creative when faced with challenges at work and at home.
