Once an issue is understood to be a behavioural challenge, behavioural principles can guide change through practical solutions:
- Being prompted to plan and set goals can help us follow through on our intentions.
- Changing the default option can lead us to choose that option while not limiting the overall choices available to us.
- Simple, well-timed reminders can motivate us to take action.
- Changing perceptions of what the prevailing social norms can make us behave differently.
