双语：如何坚持你的新年决心
噢喔,新的一年才刚刚开始,你就发现很难坚持告别垃圾食品、远离沙发、戒烟这些新年决心了吧?我们很难改掉坏习惯是由于生物学的原因这些坏习惯根植于我们的大脑中.
That's not an excuse to give up.Understanding how unhealthy behaviors become ingrained has scientists learning some tricks that may help good habits replace the bad.
Why are bad habits stronger?You're fighting against the power of an immediate reward,says Dr.Nora Volkow,director of the National Institute on Drug Abuse and an authority on the brain's pleasure pathway.
We all as creatures are hard-wired that way,to give greater value to an immediate reward as opposed to something that's delayed,Volkow says.
沃尔科夫博士说,我们的这种天性决定了我们会更看重眼前的好处,而不是迟来的好处.
Just how that bit of happiness turns into a habit involves a pleasure-sensing chemical named dopamine.It conditions the brain to want that reward again and again – reinforcing the connection each time – especially when it gets the right cue from your environment.
People tend to overestimate their ability to resist temptations around them,thus undermining attempts to shed bad habits,says experimental psychologist Loran Nordgren,an assistant professor at Northwestern University's Kellogg School of Management.
西北大学凯洛格管理学院副教授、实验心理学家罗兰?诺德格伦说,人们往往高估自己抵抗身边诱惑的能力,这使他们为摆脱坏习惯而做出的努力毁于一旦.
Even scientists who recognize it can fall prey.I don't like popcorn.But every time I go to the cinema,I have to eat it,Volkow says.It's fascinating.
即使是能意识到这一点的科学家,也难以幸免.沃尔科夫说：我不喜欢吃爆米花,但每次去电影院我都会吃.它让我很难抗拒.
A movement to pay people for behavior changes may exploit that connection,as some companies offer employees outright payments or insurance rebates for adopting better habits.
一项为行为变化买单的运动可能会对这种联系加以利用,在这项运动中,一些公司给雇员提供即时报酬或是保险回扣,以激励他们形成更好的习惯.
However paying for behavior plays out,researchers say there are some steps that may help counter your brain's hold on bad habits:
那就是,重复,重复,再重复你的新行为,使之成为每天固定时间的例行活动.下决心锻炼?那就每天早上固定时间锻炼,而不要随意找时间,这样会使大脑纹状体最终接受这个新习惯.
