Charles Duhigg’s The Power of Habit: Why We Do What We Do in Life and Business | Summary - E-book - ePub

Charles Duhigg's The Power of Habit is a comprehensive analysis of different cases showing the impact habits have on everyday life. It uses examples of companies, corporations and individuals to describe formation of habits, how to alter them, their use in making business profitable, and the damage poor habits can cause. Examination of people with extraordinary habits helps to understand how habits form inside the brain.
The basal ganglia, composed of a loop made of three sections, is the section in the brain that stores the habit. The sections stimulate the habit loop, its execution, and a reward which reminds the brain to store the habit for future use. The stimulation and reward sections can help change a habit.
