“Typically, people who exercise, start eating better and becoming more productive at work. They smoke less and show more patience with colleagues and family. They use their credit cards less frequently and say they feel less stressed. Exercise is a keystone habit that triggers widespread change.”
“Champions don’t do extraordinary things. They do ordinary things, but they do them without thinking, too fast for the other team to react. They follow the habits they’ve learned.”
“Rather, to change a habit, you must keep the old cue, and deliver the old reward, but insert a new routine.”
“This is the real power of habit: the insight that your habits are what you choose them to be.”
