If you are curious about how you can develop such a good habit yourself, we have good news for you. It has been scientifically proven that learning new routines does not necessarily have to be that difficult. For Anders and for Brown, their collections changed from a playful thing into a beautiful habit and eventually became ingrained into their lifestyle. But how do you achieve something like that?
Science has shown that generally, there is a 21/90 rule for learning new routines. That is, it takes about 21 days to make a habit out of a novelty. But that’s not all!
