The Reward Blueprint: Design Habits That Stick Using the Science of Rewards

The Reward Blueprint is a practical guide to building habits that last by focusing on the science of rewards rather than just willpower. Written by behavioral scientist Dr. Noah V., the book explains why traditional methods built on "grit" often fail, using the author's own struggles with motivation as a starting point. It delves into the neuroscience of dopamine (the "molecule of wanting") and the "Craving Loop" (Cue, Routine, Reward). It then provides a blueprint for designing compelling habits, offering strategies like the "Two-Minute Rule," "Habit Stacking," "Temptation Bundling," and "Identity-Based Habits." Ultimately, the book is a "roadmap" to help readers stop punishing themselves and start "rewarding their way to a better life."
