Cue is a piece of information that directly suggests that there is a reward to be found.
Craving is the motivation for something to change to get the reward.
The response is the thought or action that you need to be able to get to the reward.

This is Cue, Craving, Response, and Reward. Clear says that all habits formed are based on this four-step pattern.

You should keep a record of all the good behaviors you want to establish and also keep a record of all the bad behaviors that you want to abandon. At the end of each day, what you should do is mark the ones that you succeeded with. This record can be a journal, a single piece of paper, a calendar, or a digital tool, like a smartphone app.

James Clear says that if you want to form new habits, you should first make them obvious.
