| REVIEW A HABIT | |
|---|---|
| PROOF | To review a habit, then perhaps change it, the Mind, subject to willpower, wants proof. So the Mind Model—Stimulus, Decision, and Effect—satisfies the Positive Result provided by Proof, which is: Encode, Infer, Map, Apply, Prove, and Resolve. |
| ERROR | If a habit produces an unsatisfactory effect, mental discipline (real thought) can help correct the error. Then the Mind Model applies, not the Will Model. Return to HABIT Model and observe which error sabotages results. (Jump to this reference for positive and negative thinking styles.) |
