For starters, try to identify a few unhealthy habits in your life and see whether you can recognize any specific cue that leads you to engage in those behaviors.Our brains and choices are being influenced every day from a million different directions. However, some of the most powerful influences on our choices come from people making use of a few psychological hacks.
Because our brains have to process an absolutely massive amount of information each day, they rely on psychological shortcuts.
