From the showHealthy Mind Healthy LifeBreak Unhealthy Patterns: How to Notice the Loops You Live In | Steve Hendershot
Key takeaways
- Repetition makes habits easy, so we stop noticing them. Ask if today’s version still fits.
- The strongest loop is good enough. Stay curious about what feels vaguely satisfying.
- Step outside your routine and listen to people who live differently.
- Try four steps: explore, test, commit to a 30-day plan, then review.
- Keep exploring even after you find something that works.
