S3-6: FAF - How Long Does it Take to Lose a Habit?

"Habit is a cobweb at first and a cable at last." ~Chinese Proverb

Let's say you have a habit of doing push-ups every morning. At what point does a habit cease to become a habit?

Well, it turns out that psychologist, Clark C. Hull introduced something he labeled "habit strength" many years ago. As Martin puts it, his "formula" was a little eccentric, perhaps too complicated and Martin set out to reintroduce HabitStrengthâ„¢ but make it much easier to apply and understand.

Just like a muscle, habit is strengthened with consistency over time. By following the P.A.R.R. methodology anyone is able to increase their HabitStrengthâ„¢

Plan. Act. Record. Reassess. P.A.R.R. is The Habit Factor's proprietary methodology to help anyone develop habits and increase their HabitStrengthâ„¢. After each successive 28 day period (4 weeks) the participant, if they've registered 85% or better against their targets can "raise the bar."

The fact is HABIT DEVELOPMENT demands three core elements/ ingredients... Knowledge, Skill (capacity to do the work), DESIRE.

Here's a blog post to add some depth to the idea: Skill vs Habit

Here's a video explaining P.A.R.R. and HabitStrengthâ„¢ >> Meet BILL
