• design your environment to make success easier;
• get back on track when you fall off course;
…and much more.

Atomic Habits is perhaps the first “self-improvement” book I have read that seems written just for me. This is not a book to sit down and read in one sitting. Nor did the ebook work for me. The secret for me was to buy the print version, read one chapter at a time, and underline in pencil the key points. There are a lot of key points. I made it a ‘habit’ to read a small portion of this book first thing in the morning. Clear also has a regular newsletter, and a website with accompanying worksheets for the principles in the book, and other ideas. I will probably sit down and begin to reread this book. There is so much good advice in this book that worked for me, that I want to continue to practice. I recommend people invest in a hard copy and add it to your permanent collection of books. It’s that good. One axiom from the book I have on my whiteboard – “Seek what is significant. Ask, does the amount of attention I’m giving to this match its importance.” With this book it does.
This book by James Clear will make you totally rethink your habit strategies! A definite recommend!!
Well researched and informative, extending Duhigg’s research in Power of Habit. Recommended if you want to develop good or break bad habits.
Just finished reading through this book for a second time and I must say it is the best “self help” book out there. James Clear give concise, easy to follow directions on how to make changing and building habits easier. He never flinches from saying that it will still be a difficult journey – but it’s worth it. It’s a quick read so there’s little reason to pass this book up.
