New Study Shows Why Habits Can be Hard to Kick

People stick to their bad habits and even run with behaviors that could be harmful,  for a reason,  according to a new study at the University of Alberta

Researcher Cindy Jardine, found that people who look at underlying factors they haven’t yet seen, can find motivation to kick a habit.

It's not enough for people to know that stress is bad for them, but they need to look at the underlying reasons for stress – such as …

Lack of finances or inability to manage money
Unemployment or career dissatisfaction

Abuse in some area of one’s life

Feelings of rejection or depression problems

Here are four brain based tactics that would help to look at underlying reasons for stress.

For finances… Look at
Malcolm Bugler’s Quick Money Tips

For career satisfaction ask what you want from a career

To move past and prevent abuse contact a trusted Online Helpguide
For depression – reduce the hormones that work against your brain

Is there another symptom of stress,  that people could look beyond to understand underlying factors that motivate change? What do you think?

Bad habits are difficult to get rid of. These brain-based tactics are interesting and helpful to understand and keep away from stress. I cannot think at any other symptom of stress.

You are so right, and part of the problem is because each time we do a thing, we rewire the brain to do it more and better. So we end up harwired for bad habits at time.

Good news is - that each time we do it's opposite we begin to wire our brains for that opposite behavior - so it's why those who hang in and "act the part" to change - get there faster:-) Tough - and often worth it I find, on those few times I turn a thing around:-) What do you think?
