If you've ever tried to change a habit, you know it's harder than it looks. But what if we told you, the real key to personal change lies not only in forming new habits, but also in understanding the psychology behind our existing ones. 

Today we dissect the nature of habits, their impact on our lives, and the many misconceptions that surround them. Inspired by a powerful quote from Ruthie Bolton, we dive into the subconscious world of behaviors - exploring how they form, how they're ingrained, and how they dictate our daily actions. 

Ready for the hard truth? The often-quoted "21 days to form a new habit" might not be the quick-fix solution you're hoping for. Change requires more than just determination - it requires the right goals. Borrowed goals, the ones we adopt because someone else thinks we should, rarely stick, but when our goals align with our personal desires, real, lasting change becomes possible.  

Whether you're looking to quit smoking or start a new fitness routine, listen up for some game-changing insights, so get in there and give it a listen for more.
