A revolutionary system to get 1 per cent better every day
People think when you want to change your life, you need to think big. But world-renowned habits expert James Clear has discovered another way. He knows that real change comes from the compound effect of hundreds of small decisions – doing two push-ups a day, waking up five minutes early, or holding a single short phone call.
He calls them atomic habits.
In this ground-breaking book, Clear reveals exactly how these minuscule changes can grow into such life-altering outcomes. He uncovers a handful of simple life hacks (the forgotten art of Habit Stacking, the unexpected power of the Two Minute Rule, or the trick to entering the Goldilocks Zone), and delves into cutting-edge psychology and neuroscience to explain why they matter. Along the way, he tells inspiring stories of Olympic gold medalists, leading CEOs, and distinguished scientists who have used the science of tiny habits to stay productive, motivated, and happy.
These small changes will have a revolutionary effect on your career, your relationships, and your life.
‘James Clear has spent years honing the art and studying the science of habits. This engaging, hands-on book is the guide you need to break bad routines and make good ones.’ Adam Grant, author of Originals
‘A special book that will change how you approach your day and live your life.’ Ryan Holiday, author of The Obstacle is the Way
There is some good advice in here but WOW does this guy hate fat people. Holy crap dude we get it! No need to harp on about it
Key to this book is the idea of small but compounded changes.
There's a lot about this book that I like, and that has helped me. Specifically the parts about breaking large daunting habits down into smaller achievable pieces, chaining habits together so that doing one makes you do others, and generally making habits enjoyable and convenient. There's a lot of practical advice. My only problem is that the book is framed from the perspective of an athlete who's striving for excellence. That's by no means unusual in self help books written by American men. I just don't derive a lot of motivation from a need to prove myself through competition.
