Quotes to ponder:
"Habit works by generating an impulse to do a behavior with little or no conscious thought."
"If some magic laundry-folding fairy appeared and told you not to worry about the task, you’d happily go about your day."
"Unlike a routine, which feels uncomfortable to do, in the case of a habit, not doing a behavior feels bad."
