And as we'll talk about in a moment, there's a way that you can build up task-bracketing so that regardless of what it is you're trying to learn, there's a much higher probability that you're going to do that thing.

The headline is broadly defensible, but the qualifications matter. Effect sizes vary by population, the strongest claims rest on shorter trials, and credible voices push back on how it's typically framed.

While it is important to think about the sequence of events that would be required in order to engage in that behavior, that procedural memory visualization exercise we talked about before, that will help, there's a way also that you can orient your nervous system towards this task-bracketing process, so that your nervous system is shifted or oriented towards the execution of a given habit. So this is sort of like warming up your body to exercise. When the dorsolateral striatum is engaged, your body and you brain are primed to execute a habit and that you get to consciously insert which habit you want to perform.
