From the post:

>Your brain treats your future self like a stranger — but this neural distance can be deliberately reduced through specific cognitive techniques, producing measurable behavioral change via identifiable plasticity mechanisms (see overviews in Schacter et al., 2017 and Voss et al., 2017). Peer-reviewed evidence spanning neuroimaging, clinical trials, and longitudinal studies shows that future-self alignment works through overlapping neural representations and episodic simulation networks that recalibrate cognition — consistent with hippocampal–prefrontal “mental time travel” (Addis, Wong, & Schacter, 2007; Takehara-Nishiuchi, 2020).

Or could you simply say creating new good habits takes time by practicing it daily until it becomes automatic in the future.
