A special book that will change how you approach your day and live your life.
Love it. One of my favorite books is Atomic Habits. A lot of similarities between the concepts there and how you operate!
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.
Great book. @JamesClear killed it!
Atomic Habits was the best book I read in 2020. But while reading is good, application is better. So here's how to use the frameworks from that book to build a writing habit:
you’ll learn:
How to break goals down into tiny habits
Inspiring case studies of how Olympic gold medalists, CEOs and over-achievers use tiny habits
How to stay productive, motivated and happy
Atomic Habits by @JamesClear is one of my favourite non-fiction books of all time. I've written a summary highlighting the best principles so you can apply them to your life too 👇
“If you show up at the gym 5 days in a row—even for 2 minutes—you're casting votes for your new identity. You’re not worried about getting in shape. Youre focused on becoming the type of person who doesn’t miss workouts”
All 3 great books
Lessons:
• Habits compound to produce huge results.
• The best way to build habits is to make them easy, attractive and rewarding.
The best way to change your life for good.
Tiny bytes of progress done everyday.

Make good habits easy to follow and make bad habits difficult

Atomic Habits - if you want to do more of something, make it easy. I carry books around with me in my bag now so I default to reading more, and got a library card for the library next to my office. Totally changed my life!

I’ve read a lot of replies to the question, but with this simple reply…you’ve blown my mind right open with this one sentence. Atomic Habits just jumped towards the top of my reading list. Thank you 🙏.

At some level, anything you desire to do (or stop doing) boils down to your habits. When you don't clearly understand the contributing factors to make (and keep) or break (and truly stop) habits that are moving you toward or away from what you ultimately desire, you'll stay stuck.
Every week I'm interacting with coaches or players who are quoting core principles from @JamesClear superb bestseller Atomic Habits. I think "aah, I know what's been on your reading list." I've got a lot from it, too. Highly recommended.
Today I would like to share another book that I really enjoyed: ‘Atomic habits’.
It taught me about the importance of small habits, consistency, time keeping, self-discipline, good planning, and preparation. All valuable lessons that help me to achieve my goals.
As a physician attempting to help my patients build healthy habits to decrease and reverse chronic disease, Atomic Habits is the playbook I have been searching for. Not only does the book offer actionable items I can teach my patients, I can refer them to read and implement the ideas themselves. The format is powerful and simple. This should be taught in all medical schools.

No matter your goals, Atomic Habits offers a proven framework for improving--every day. James Clear, one of the world's leading experts on habit formation, reveals practical strategies that will teach you exactly how to form good habits, break bad ones, and master the tiny behaviors that lead to remarkable results.
If you're having trouble changing your habits, the problem isn't you. The problem is your system. Bad habits repeat themselves again and again not because you don't want to change, but because you have the wrong system for change. You do not rise to the level of your goals. You fall to the level of your systems. Here, you'll get a proven system that can take you to new heights.
Clear is known for his ability to distill complex topics into simple behaviors that can be easily applied to daily life and work. Here, he draws on the most proven ideas from biology, psychology, and neuroscience to create an easy-to-understand guide for making good habits inevitable and bad habits impossible. Along the way, readers will be inspired and entertained with true stories from Olympic gold medalists, award-winning artists, business leaders, life-saving physicians, and star comedians who have used the science of small habits to master their craft and vault to the top of their field.
Learn how to:
* make time for new habits (even when life gets crazy);
* overcome a lack of motivation and willpower;
* design your environment to make success easier;
* get back on track when you fall off course;
...and much more.
Atomic Habits will reshape the way you think about progress and success, and give you the tools and strategies you need to transform your habits--whether you are a team looking to win a championship, an organization hoping to redefine an industry, or simply an individual who wishes to quit smoking, lose weight, reduce stress, or achieve any other goal.
