The Habit Formation Personality Spectrum Ensemble can be a very helpful and very important Filter both for those who are enthusiastic about retaining habits they consider to be high value (e.g. having a dial setting leading to a strong habit forming behavior type) and for those who are proud of their ability to "change with challenging circumstances" (e.g. having a dial setting leading to a behavior type that embraces adapting effectively to changing circumstances.)

However, it may also be the case that those with strong habit retention behaviors may also be more prone to substance abuse addiction, addiction to sexual gratification (including polygamy with or without partner approval), overspending (leading to budget issues), or other anxieties generated simply by circumstances changing from what one had been used to.

On the other hand, those with strong adaptive behaviors, while they may be less prone to the substance and behavioral addictions, may also be less interested in adhering to established protocols, depending on the status of their Embrace of Indoctrinated Preferences filter.

Be careful. Understand your strengths and limitations. Be skeptical of your understanding of what you think you want to be doing, and why. Be very cautious to avoid exposures to addictive situations if you have a strong Habit Formation Ensemble. Reversing your addictions may not be something you ever will decide to do ... which would be unfortunate, ultimately. And be grateful for the advantages your Habit Formation Ensemble endows you with, regardless of its setting.

There will be another revision to this chapter. Watch for it if you find you are interested.

The development of this chapter on the Habit Formation Personality Spectrum Ensemble is ongoing. There is so much more to elaborate on that would be helpful for understanding how we are built to perceive Reality truthfully ... if we do. And so much more that those with strong empirical research experience in this area could contribute to this chapter that is not well understood or possessed by this chapter's author.

That said, what little has been portrayed does offer some value until additional updates to this chapter are written. As new versions are created, the title's version number will continue to be updated (see Author's Note.)

Comments are encouraged.
