About This Quote

Rituals are a good signal to your unconscious that it is time to kick in. The brain is constantly processing all kinds of information. Our brains are constantly working on our actions, thoughts, and even emotions. One way this happens is through the repetition of certain behaviors.

Some people call this process "grooming." For example, when you wake up every morning you say "good morning" to yourself out loud before you get out of bed. Grooming helps you become accustomed to certain actions, like waking up at the same time every day.
