Habits are learned resolutions. When your brain works out how to get something accomplished, it saves the resolution, which is rewarded whenever you employ it. Driving an auto, consuming a meal, and studying written text are all learned resolutions. It took you much effort to learn these skills, but now you are able to play back these known patterns rather than beginning from scratch each time.

Habits are your minds approach to time management. It may be exceedingly inefficient for you to consciously choose how to spend each minute daily. Your conscious brain has better matters to attend to than solve the same issues again and again, so it assigns known issues to your subconscious in order to remember and apply the memorized resolutions.
