Our brain is an energy miser. Right. It wants to. The third priority of the brain is to conserve energy. Yeah. Developing a new habit requires energy. So our brain's going, you, you want me to use energy, but I want to, you know, I want to. I want to be a miser of energy in case I need to fight a saber toothed tiger. So it, the biological reason for it is for conservation of energy. Number one is security and safety for life. Number two is avoidance of pain or discomfort. Change is a little uncomfortable or a lot. Yeah. And then now your brain's trying to conserve. So. So when we are habit stacking, if I take something that I'm already doing and I add something to the beginning of it or the end of it, just a little bit.
I am doing what I call is neural linking.
