Habits and routines are an important part of our lives. Although we often use the two words interchangeably, they have different meanings. Let's learn the difference together.
Habit Coach
Pınar, who believes in the power of habits to provide balance between work and private life, carries out studies that adopt this principle both in her own life and in the lives of her clients. After 10 years of private sector experience, Pınar, who has been a Professional Coach and Trainer with the PCC title given by the ICF (International Coach Federation) for the last 5 years, organizes workshops called "Habit Design Workshop" in addition to individual sessions as a "Habit Coach".
In addition, she prepares and presents a podcast series called "Pleasant Habits". Pınar, who believes that routines and habits are acquired more easily with communities, founded the "Bursa Book Club" with her husband to develop the reading habit in people.
Habits become automatic over time thanks to the neural connections created in our brains through repetitive behaviors. This is useful for us to allocate our energy and attention to more important issues. However, unconscious habits can sometimes limit us or prevent us from reaching our goals. Therefore, it is important to be aware of habits and manage them consciously.
Routines are a series of actions that are planned and consciously carried out for a specific purpose. Routines are a guide that brings order to our lives and directs us towards our goals. For example, routines created with conscious choices such as waking up early in the morning, meditating, or doing sports can turn into our habits in the long run.
Habits and routines are complementary elements. While our habits allow us to continue our lives in an automatic order, routines draw a roadmap to reach our goals. In order to manage our lives more consciously, it is important to constantly evaluate our habits and routines and change them when necessary.
