Inversion of the 4 Laws:

Make It Invisible: To break a bad habit, reduce its visibility. For example, if you want to stop eating junk food, don’t keep it in your house or keep it out of sight.

Make It Unattractive: Alter your perception of the bad habit to make it less appealing. You can do this by highlighting the negative consequences or associating the habit with unpleasant outcomes.

Make It Difficult: Increase the effort required to engage in the bad habit. For example, if you want to stop spending time on social media, log out of your accounts or remove the apps from your phone.

Make It Unsatisfying.
