Science shows that habits, rather than motivation and self-control, are best for situations that require repeated actions, like eating or being active. So instead of a #resolution, share what new habit you are hoping to form in 2025? #NewYearsEve
A graph showing the 3 parts of how habits form

Cue
What triggers the behavior
Example: a notification on your phone

Routine
An action or behavior
Example: Drinking water after you see the notification

Reward
What the behavior does for you
Example: Having more energy when you are hydrated
