Habits
A habit (or wont) is a routine of behavior that is repeated regularly and tends
to occur subconsciously .
In the American Journal of Psychology (1903) it is defined in this way: "A
habit, from the standpoint of psychology, is a more or less fixed way of
thinking, willing, or feeling acquired through previous repetition of a mental
experience." Habitual behavior often goes unnoticed in persons exhibiting it,
because a person does not need to engage in self-analysis when undertaking
routine tasks. Habits are sometimes compulsory. The process by which new
behaviours become automatic is habit formation. Old habits are hard to
break and new habits are hard to form because the behavioural patterns we
repeat are imprinted in our neural pathways, but it is possible to form new
habits through repetition.
As behaviors are repeated in a consistent context, there is an incremental
increase in the link between the context and the action. This increases the
automaticity of the behavior in that context. Features of an automatic
behavior are all or some of: efficiency, lack of awareness, unintentionality,
uncontrollability.

changes that happen naturally (digestive process, aging process); A method
of producing goods in a factory by treating natural substances.

Quality Consciousness
It is a term intended to describe a state of being whereby an individual's
consciousness - that is his or her conscious purpose in being - is focused on
producing a quality result or outcome from his or her actions. In an
organizational sense, QUALITY CONSCIOUSNESS means the same, but on an
organizational wide scale - that is the entire organization will consciously act
with one purpose - being to produce a quality result. In this context, QUALITY
does not need definition, but could be expressed with objective (numerical)
or subjective (satisfaction) terms. In this context, QUALITY means "better".
