📝Habit is unconscious behavior

From Habit | Definition of Habit by Merriam-Webster:

2 a : an acquired mode of behavior that has become nearly or completely involuntary

There are much more habits than when we think of good/bad habits—there is a ton of habits that are neither good or bad. Nearly any frequently-repeated action that we can do automatically is a habit.

Habits are unconscious and new habits can form even if memory cannot (Duhigg₂₀₁₂).
