We spend a shocking 43 percent of our day doing things without thinking about them. That means that almost half of our actions aren’t conscious choices, but the result of our non-conscious mind nudging our body to act along learned behaviors. How we respond to the people around us; the way we conduct ourselves in a meeting; what we buy; when and how we exercise, eat, and drink - a truly remarkable number of things we do every day, regardless of their complexity, operate outside of our awareness.

Wendy Wood apresenta a fascinante ciência de como formamos hábitos e mostra como desbloquear a mente para realizar as mudanças que buscamos. Ela explica que 43% das nossas ações não são escolhas conscientes. Fazemos automaticamente, por hábito. É assim que respondemos às pessoas ao nosso redor, decidimos o que comprar, quando e como nos exercitar, comer ou beber. Mas sempre que queremos melhorar algo em nós mesmos, contamos com a força de vontade, na esperança de que a determinação seja capaz de promover mudanças positivas. Por isso é que falhamos tantas vezes.

Fakt ist: Wir verbringen sagenhafte 43 Prozent unseres Tages damit, Dinge zu tun, ohne darüber nachzudenken.
