Day 117: On Dressing New Things in Old Habits

Whether selling a new song, a new food, or a new crib, the lesson is

the  same:  If  you  dress  a  new  something  in  old  habits,  it’s  easier  for  the

public to accept it.

—Charles Duhigg

You’ll find it easier to change your current negative habits if you make

your  new,  positive  habits  seem  similar  to  your  original,  disempowering

patterns.

For  example,  if  you’re  a  huge  fan  of  potatoes  (more  specifically,

French fries), and now your diet forces you to give them up, it might prove

to be too big of a challenge for you to eliminate them just like that.

What if you allowed yourself to eat potatoes, but in a healthier form?

Instead of eating French fries, you could eat baked potatoes that were sliced

in a similar way as your beloved fries.

It’s  an  improvement  to  your  diet,  it  gives  you  some  positive

momentum, and yet it shouldn’t cost you that much in terms of willpower.

If you want to start jogging and you’re a fan of listening to podcasts,

why not tell yourself that you’re going to listen to some podcasts and in the

meantime, move a little? It doesn’t sound like such a big, difficult change,

does it ?

Whenever  you  can,  find  a  way  to  link  a  new  change  or  make  it  as

similar  as  possible  (in  appearance,  not  consequences)  to  your  previous

negative habit. That way, it will more easily become a permanent routine in

your life.
