Bad habits are hard to change because we are usually doing something we really like, but we are doing it too much.

2. Learning about the reading strategy—Finding the main idea of a paragraph.
Tips about how to find the main idea of a paragraph: The main idea is sometimes stated in either the opening or closing sentence. If not, look for another “standout” sentence, or summarise the paragraph in your mind by asking yourself, “What is it mainly about?”

The three stages of the habit cycle are the cue, routine, and reward.
3) What should we do to change a bad habit?
To change a bad habit, we should examine our habit cycles and then try to adapt them.

New habit

feel relaxed and healthier
2. Do you know any alternative ways to better habits? Discuss with your partner which way you think is most effective.
Alternative ways to better habits:
Tell someone else what you want to change. Peer pressure from someone else will help.
Fine yourself. Every time you do the bad habit, put a small amount of money in a box.
Make it harder to do the habit. For example, hide your favourite apps on your phone so it is more of a hassle to get to them.
Change your environment. If the habit happens in certain places or with certain people, avoid them!
