“The truth is that everyone is bored, and devotes himself to cultivating habits.” – Albert Camus in The Plague [4]

Perhaps you’ve sworn to yourself that you would stop being late for appointments, or binge eating ice cream at 3 in the morning, but you can’t seem to change.

There is a way to re-wire them, in effect, but it helps to understand what caused your brain to develop that habit to begin with.
