Good habits for a good life

How do you achieve a life as good as it can be?  Jim Davies, a cognitive scientist has thought a lot about this.  Changing your life can mean changing bad habits and that's not an easy thing to do. And it can take more than willpower.  So how do you change bad habits into good ones?  Jim Davies looks at research that helps answer this question.  Jim is a cognitive scientist and Director of the Science of Imagination Lab at Carleton University in Ottawa.  https://carleton.ca/cognitivescience/people/davies-jim/He’s also the author of several books including “Being the Person Your Dog Thinks You Are” and the cohost of the award winning podcast “Minding The Brain.”For more info on Jim and his work: http://www.jimdavies.org/We appreciate your support!  Please rate our podcast.  And subscribe and follow us on social!  @CRAMideas.   Our thanks to the Temerty Foundation for their generous support. And check out our literary podcast, Passage to Wonderland.  Compelling passages from books, old and new, about discovery, insight and revelation.
