There’s a fantastic book about this concept called “Thinking Fast and Slow” by Daniel Kahneman. Highly recommend!

Also blink by Malcolm Gladwell but it's basically saying that autopilot is better than active thought especially when well trained.

Oh that's a great counterpoint. Good habits are supposed to be & should be automatic or autopilot reinforced whereas Bad habits and negative thinking need to be broken out of through methods like the five second rule or prayer & fasting or whatever other tools you have. Thanks for that addition; that brings it full circle!
