Habits shape much of our daily behavior, operating on an invisible neurological loop that can be redirected to transform individual lives, organizational cultures, and entire societies.
The habit loop is an automatic neurological sequence consisting of a cue that triggers a behavior, a routine, and a reward that reinforces the pattern.
To change a detrimental habit, you identify the craving driving it, keep the original cue and reward intact, and consciously substitute a new routine.
Certain keystone habits, like regular exercise or an organizational focus on safety, initiate a chain reaction of small wins that naturally transform other areas of life.
