Guest guest Posted November 19, 2011 Report Share Posted November 19, 2011 I just came across this professor's work about changing behavior (behavior design). Professor Fogg believes that activating a change of behavior demands a trigger and a balance between the ease or ability of a new behavior and the motivation we carry to implement the change. Habits, he described, are things that stick around in our life every day because either they are super easy (tying your shoes or brushing your teeth or feeding your dog) or the motivation is fairly easy to come by (hunger cues us to eat every day, for example). He urges us to make new, desired behaviors simply easier. If we do, they will be more likely to happen. http://www.bjfogg.com/ Interesting idea! How can I make mindful eating easier? It seems like a huge effort at the moment. Dina Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
