Welcome to part 5 of our Mind Hacks Series, where Charlie shares how to begin designing effective rituals to help you achieve your goals.

\\n

Charlie explains that rituals train the brain to allow the action to become conditioned into your brain so it becomes automatic- so automatic so it takes no energy, and you don\\u2019t have to exert discipline to do it.

\\n

Charlie emphasizes the importance of understanding the cue, which is the most critical piece to understanding habits. He explains that when the cue gets triggered, it automatically cues the next behavior, and the next- it\\u2019s all one network. 

\\n

Charlie discusses:

\\n

-Habits have three components: the cue, the routine, and the reward.

\\n

-By controlling the trigger, (or the cue,) you can change your life.

\\n

-How to design effective cues by identifying a structured action you already do all the time and use it as a trigger to the new habit. 

\\n

-How to do the routine next to the thing that will trigger it it because then your brain will start to associate the two.

\\n

-That many negative behaviors stem from triggers, so it's essential to avoid those triggers. 

\\n

Homework:Make a list of things in your life that are built in structure that can be used as triggers, such as waking up, brushing teeth, making coffee, sitting down at your desk, and pulling into the driveway.
