The Law Of Least Effort

Habits exist in order to help us do repetitive things automatically. 
Problem phase
 • Cue - the cue triggers the brain to a certain behavior, like you walk into dark room.
 • Craving - this is the motivation behind the habit, like you want to be able to see
Solution phase
 • Response - this is the action to perform, like you flip the light switch.
 • Reward - it has two purposes - to satisfy us and to teach us, like you satisfy your craving to see.

All habits are based on four simple steps  

We are so focused on figuring out the best approach that we never get around to taking action.
Planning vs taking action
 • Motion makes you feel like you're getting things done. but really, you're just preparing to get something done.
 • Most of the time we're just so confused on figuring out the best Approach that we never get around to taking action.
 • Planning is good, but it don't produce reasult.

Walk slowly, but never backward
