Day 301: On the Power of Rituals

A growing body of research suggests that as little as 5 percent of our

behaviors  are  consciously  self-directed.  We  are  creatures  of  habit  and  as

much as 95 percent of what we do occurs automatically or in reaction to a

demand or an anxiety.

—Jim Loehr

 

300

If the vast majority of what we do is an automatic behavior, then what

we  need  to  focus  on  in  the  first  place  is  making  sure  that  our  rituals  are

empowering.  But  first,  we  need  to  identify  and  assess  our  automatic

behaviors.

Starting  from  when  you  wake  up,  make  a  list  of  all  of  the  automatic

behaviors you engage in throughout the day.

Do you immediately go to prepare coffee? When commuting to work,

do  you  always  swear  at  other  drivers?  When  you  arrive  at  work,  do  you

automatically start gossiping with your colleagues? When shopping, do you

automatically buy things you don’t necessarily need if you see that they’re

discounted by 50%? When you’re tired but there’s still one more chore to

attend to, do you routinely watch TV first and then take care of the chore

(or forget about it entirely) or do you do it immediately, instead of giving in

to the temptation to procrastinate?

This simple exercise will help you take stock of your rituals and decide

which ones to keep and which ones to discard. Since automatic behaviors

often take place without us being entirely aware of them, making such a list

may help you discover your blind spots .

In  addition  to  performing  this  exercise,  pick  one  day  during  which

you’ll  try  to  catch  yourself  whenever  you’re  automatically  engaging  in

disadvantageous  behaviors.  It’s  only  with  heightened  self-awareness  that

you  can  identify  some  of  the  little  everyday  habits  that  negatively  affect

your willpower.
