Most of your actions are driven by habit, not thought - here’s why that’s not a bad thing
Reaching for our phones upon waking, standing in the same point on the station platform, sneaking in a sweet treat after the evening meal – we all have habits that shape our lives.

Habitual behaviour is made up of the things that we do without thinking, prompted by our environment and learned through repeated enactment.
