Notice we are dealing with three numbers: 1  the base: the number we are multiplying (a 2 in the example above) 2  how many times to use it in a multiplication (3 times, which is the logarithm) 3  The number we want to get (an 8)

The duration of habit formation is likely to differ depending on who you are and what you are trying to do.â¦] A recent scientific study by the University College London shows that it takes longer than 21 days for a habit to form. The number of days necessary to form a habit is closer to 60 days. However, that is an estimate and it may take more or less days depending on the activity and the person.
