Habit Formation Tip 2: Make it Attractive
Last time we talked about making habits obvious. Today it’s about making them attractive.
Our brains are wired to repeat things we enjoy. This is why Netflix, crisps, and scrolling on your phone come so easily. The trick is to harness that same wiring for healthy habits.
👉 A few simple ways to do this:
Bundle it: Only allow yourself to listen to your favourite podcast while out on a walk or only watch your favourite show while on the exercise bike
Reframe it: Instead of “I have to check my blood pressure,” think “I get to track my progress and stay in control.”
Join others: Exercise feels easier (and more fun) with a friend, class, or community.
💡 Remember: if the habit feels rewarding in the moment, you’ll stick with it.
We already know consistency is the key to preventing stroke. The goal is to design habits you actually want to repeat.
👉 Question for you: What’s one healthy habit you’ve managed to make genuinely enjoyable? Or what are you going to do to make a habit enjoyable?
For me podcasts are the key. I often want to go for a run just so I can enjoy my favourite podcast.
