The document outlines how new habits can form using the example of developing a coffee drinking habit. It describes first gathering information about coffee, then trying different drinks to see if you enjoy it. If you like the taste and boost in productivity, you start drinking coffee more regularly and incorporating it into your daily routine until it becomes a normal part of your life. If you don't enjoy the taste or side effects of caffeine, coffee remains an occasional treat.
