Craving: the motivation to change something to get the reward

Response: whatever thought or action you need to take to get to the reward

Cue: a small piece of information that suggests there's a reward to be found

Reward: the satisfying feeling you get from the change, along with the lesson whether to do it again or not

Make it attractive: start with the fruit you like the most, so you'll actually want to eat one when you see it

Make it easy: don't create needless friction by focusing on fruits that are hard to peel. Bananas and apples are super easy to eat, for example

Make it obvious: don't hide your fruits in your fridge, put them on display front and center

Make it satisfying: if you like the fruit you picked, you'll love eating it and feel healthier as a result
