Isn't it funny how quickly something like stopping at Biggby for coffee on the way to the office in the morning becomes a habit. I did that (legit just stopped to backtrack my life is like that) two to three times a week for maybe three months and I just looked back on it fondly as “that time in my life.” There's that three month time period again...maybe that's it. Maybe it's the Gladwell thing but for habit formation: If you do something for ninety days it goes from something you do to something you do habitually to the point where not doing it anymore is jarring. Not stopping at Biggby is the part I remember about getting fired from the MDOT contract. When does the absence of a thing become disruptive enough to notice its presence? If I don't workout, I notice. When I started waking up alone, I noticed. These are habits but without an (I mix up intrinsic and extrinsic I did this on the CPT exam I think) motivator.
This is my research so I should probably lock this down sometime in the next checks two weeks.
OK now I know how to do italics that's cool.
