"For a habit to stick, you need to do more than just repeat it, says behavioral scientist BJ Fogg, founder of Stanford's Behavior Design Lab. You need motivation, the ability to do the action and a prompt to do it. "When those three things come together, the behavior happens.""
"Like, you forgot one time to do yoga, and somehow it never happened again? Suddenly, a behavior you spent weeks working on is just wiped out. You did everything right so what went wrong? For a habit to stick, you need to do more than just repeat it."
"Fogg shares insights based on the Tiny Habits method, a research-backed approach he developed in 2007 on how to create lasting change. This comic was drawn by the cartoonist Vreni Stollberger, based on writing by Mika Ellison and reporting by Marielle Segarra."
A habit can disappear when repetition alone is not enough to sustain behavior. Lasting change requires three elements working together: motivation to want the action, ability to make the action doable, and a prompt that triggers the action. When motivation, ability, and a prompt come together, the behavior occurs. Tiny Habits is a research-backed method developed to create durable behavior change by structuring actions so they are easy to perform and reliably cued. The approach focuses on designing the conditions that make the desired behavior happen consistently rather than relying on willpower or occasional effort.
