Which of the following statements offers an effective way to break a negative habit or to form a positive habit?​

A) ​Avoid feedback from others because they do not understand your situation.
B) Reward yourself only after you have achieved your final goal.​
C) Plan a different change to make if you do not succeed within a few days.​
D) Practice what you have learned to change your behavior.​

Practicing what you have learned is the most effective way to break a negative habit or form a positive habit. Simply avoiding feedback or planning for an alternative change won't necessarily address the root cause of the behavior. Rewarding yourself only after achieving the final goal can also be demotivating and make the process seem overwhelming. Consistent practice and repetition will lead to the habit becoming more natural and easier to maintain.
