Tiny Changes, Remarkable Results

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.

It is so easy to overestimate the importance of one defining moment and
underestimate the value of making small improvements on a daily basis. Too
often, we convince ourselves that massive success requires massive action.
Whether it is losing weight, building a business, writ­ing a book, winning a
championship, or achieving any other goal, we put pressure on ourselves to make
some earth- shattering improvement that everyone will talk about.

Meanwhile, improving by 1 percent isn’t particularly notable—sometimes it isn’t
even noticeable—but it can be far more meaningful, especially in the long run.
The difference a tiny improvement can make over time is astounding. Here’s how
the math works out: if you can get 1 percent better each day for one year,
you’ll end up thirty-seven times better by the time you’re done. Conversely, if
you get 1 percent worse each day for one year, you’ll decline nearly down to
zero. What starts as a small win or a minor setback accumulates into something
much more.

Habits are the compound interest of self-improvement. The same way that money
multiplies through compound interest, the effects of your habits multiply as you
repeat them. They seem to make little dif­ference on any given day and yet the
impact they deliver over the months and years can be enormous. It is only when
looking back two, five, or perhaps ten years later that the value of good habits
and the cost of bad ones becomes strikingly apparent.

This can be a difficult concept to appreciate in daily life. We often dismiss
small changes because they don’t seem to matter very much in the moment. If you
save a little money now, you’re still not a million­aire. If you go to the gym
three days in a row, you’re still out of shape. If you study Mandarin for an
hour tonight, you still haven’t learned the language. We make a few changes, but
the results never seem to come quickly and so we slide back into our previous
routines.
Unfortunately, the slow pace of transformation also makes it easy to let a bad
habit slide. If you eat an unhealthy meal today, the scale doesn’t move much. If
you work late tonight and ignore your family, they will forgive you. If you
procrastinate and put your project off until tomorrow, there will usually be
time to finish it later. A single decision is easy to dismiss.

But when we repeat 1 percent errors, day after day, by replicating poor
decisions, duplicating tiny mistakes, and rationalizing little ex­cuses, our
small choices compound into toxic results. It’s the accumu­lation of many
missteps—1 percent decline here and there—that eventually leads to a problem.

The impact created by a change in your habits is similar to the effect of
shifting the route of an airplane by just a few degrees. Imagine you are flying
from Los Angeles to New York City. If a pilot leaving from LAX adjusts the
heading just 3.5 degrees south, you will land in Washington, D.C., instead of
New York. Such a small change is barely noticeable at takeoff—the nose of the
airplane moves just a few feet—but when magni­fied across the entire United
States, you end up hundreds of miles apart.

Similarly, a slight change in your daily habits can guide your life to a very
different destination. Making a choice that is 1 percent better or 1 percent
worse seems insignificant in the moment, but over the span of moments that make
up a lifetime these choices determine the differ­ence between who you are and
who you could be. Success is the prod­uct of daily habits—not once‑in‑a‑lifetime
transformations.

That said, it doesn’t matter how successful or unsuccessful you are right now.
What matters is whether your habits are putting you on the path toward success.
You should be far more concerned with your cur­rent trajectory than with your
current results. If you’re a millionaire but you spend more than you earn each
month, then you’re on a bad trajectory. If your spending habits don’t change,
it’s not going to end well. Conversely, if you’re broke, but you save a little
bit every month, then you’re on the path toward financial freedom—even if you’re
mov­ing slower than you’d like.

Your outcomes are a lagging measure of your habits. Your net worth is a lagging
measure of your financial habits. Your weight is a lagging measure of your
eating habits. Your knowledge is a lagging measure of your learning habits. Your
clutter is a lagging measure of your cleaning habits. You get what you repeat.

If you want to predict where you’ll end up in life, all you have to do is follow
the curve of tiny gains or tiny losses, and see how your daily choices will
compound ten or twenty years down the line. Are you spending less than you earn
each month? Are you making it into the gym each week? Are you reading books and
learning something new each day? Tiny bat­tles like these are the ones that will
define your future self.

Time magnifies the margin between success and failure. It will multiply whatever
you feed it. Good habits make time your ally. Bad habits make time your enemy.

Habits are a double-edged sword. Bad habits can cut you down just as easily as
good habits can build you up, which is why understanding the details is crucial.
You need to know how habits work and how to design them to your liking, so you
can avoid the dangerous half of the blade.

5.0 out of 5 stars Updated review after 100 days building small yet lasting
habits.
Reviewed in the United States on October 18, 2018
Verified Purchase
I previously wrote this review right after reading the book. Today, February
15th, after applying James’s system for 100 days on a few tiny habits, I feel
compelled to share updates with you because they have sincerely worked.

I will divide the review into 5 parts. The first part is a summary of the book
with short excerpts highlighted while taking notes. Next, I hope to share pieces
of advice that have motivated me while building new habits. Following that, I
will share how I implemented the first 3 habits throughout these months. Then,
some thoughts to whom I would recommend reading the book. Last, there are 4
complementary readings.

SUMMARY

[Introduction] James starts by sharing personal strategies he implemented to
recover from a serious accident in high school. That event forced him to improve
the quality of his routine to get his life in order, coming to the conclusion
that “we all deal with setbacks, but in the long run, the quality of our lives
often depends on the quality of our habits. With the same habits, you will end
up with the same results. But with better habits, anything is possible.”

[Section I : The Fundamentals]

[Chapter 1] Here we learn the power of compounding effect: changes that seem
small and unimportant at any given day will compound into remarkable results if
we are willing to stick with them for months and years. James explains that
“breakthrough moments are often the result of many previous actions, which build
up the potential required to unleash a major change.” Comparing to habits, he
shows that bamboo can barely be seen during the first couple of years while the
roots grow underground before exploding for almost 100 feet into the air in a
few weeks. From that perspective, we come to understand the best outcomes are
generally delayed.

[Chapter 2] Based on a 3-layer concentric circle behavior change model—divided
into outcome change, process change, and identity change—James explains that we
should pay attention to our inner identity by focusing on beliefs, assumptions,
and values. “Many people begin the process of changing their habits by focusing
on what they want to achieve. This leads us to outcome-based habits. The
alternative is to build identity-based habits. With this approach, we start by
focusing on who we wish to become.” The strongest changes, then, happen from
inside out, starting from our identity, passing through the process, and
ultimately changing the outcome.

[Chapter 3] In this chapter we are introduced to a 4-step framework, which is
composed of cue, craving, response, and reward. James calls it 'The 4 Laws of
Behavior Change'. He then explains that we can think of each law as a lever that
influences our behavior—when the levers are in the right positions, they create
good habits effortless whereas when they are in the wrong position, it is nearly
impossible. Through examples, he explains that “the cue triggers a craving,
which motivates a response, which provides a reward, which satisfies the craving
and, ultimately, becomes associated with the cue.” Together they create a habit
loop that, when repeated many times, habits become automatic.

[Section II : Make It Obvious]

[Chapter 4] A primer on how cues play a crucial role in predicting habit
formation without consciously thinking about the outcomes. Once our habits
become so common, the cues associated with them become essentially invisible
because they are deeply encoded. If we want to create better habits, a good idea
is to be aware of the cues. James finishes up by sharing a strategy called
'Habits Scorecard'—a simple exercise to become more aware of our behavior on a
daily basis. We first write down a chronological list of our daily habits and,
once we have a full list, we score each habit as an effective, ineffective, or
neutral habit. Besides noticing what is actually going on, we can notice if
certain behaviors help us become the type of person we wish to be.

[Chapter 5] The cues that can trigger a habit come in a wide range of forms, and
the 2 most common cues are time and location. When we make a specific plan for
when and where we will perform a new habit, we are more likely to follow
through. Stacking our habits by pairing a new habit with a current habit is a
form to connect our behavior to our own advantage. An example when building a
daily journaling habit would be: “after I pour my cup of coffee each morning, I
will journal for 5 minutes.”

[Chapter 6] This chapter shows how our environment plays a crucial role in
defining habit behaviors. “Given that we are more dependent on vision than any
other sense, it should come as no surprise that visual cues are the greatest
catalyst of our behavior.” To build good habits, then, we should either make
desirable cues obvious in our environment or build new habits in a new
environment to avoid fighting against old ones.

[Chapter 7] One of the most practical ways to break a bad habit is to reduce
exposure to the cue that causes it. As James points out, “it is easier to avoid
temptation than resist it.”

[Section III : Make It Attractive]

[Chapter 8] James explains how the modern food industry has created products
that are more attractive and addictive to consumers, and by doing so he shows
that the more attractive an opportunity is, the more likely it is to become
habit-forming. Every behavior that is highly habit-forming tends to be
associated with higher levels of dopamine. It is the anticipation of a reward
that motivates us to take action. “Temptation bundling is one way to make your
habits more attractive. The strategy is to pair an action you want to do with an
action you need to do.”

[Chapter 9] “We tend to adopt habits that are praised and approved of by our
culture because we have a strong desire to fit in and belong to the tribe.” That
said, it is common to pick up habits and behaviors from our parents, peers, and
colleagues. There is also a tremendous internal pressure to comply with the
norms of the tribe. And, finally, we try to copy the behavior of successful
people because we desire success ourselves. One of the best strategies to build
better habits is to join a culture where the desired behavior is the normal
behavior.

[Chapter 10] To avoid unnecessary and detrimental cravings, we should highlight
the benefits of avoiding a bad habit by making it seem unattractive. “Habits are
unattractive when we associate them with negative feelings.”

[Section IV : Make It Easy]

[Chapter 11] “All habits follow a similar trajectory from effortful practice to
automatic behavior, a process known as automaticity. Automaticity is the ability
to perform a behavior without thinking about each step, which occurs when the
nonconscious mind takes over.” The key component is to pay close attention to
the frequency we perform a habit, not much for how long we have been practicing
it.

[Chapter 12] Since every action requires a certain amount of energy, we are
motivated to do what is easy. By contrast, the more energy required, the less
likely it is to occur. “You don't actually want the habit itself. What you
really want is the outcome the habit delivers. The greater the obstacle, the
more friction there is between you and your desired end state.” That is why we
should reduce the friction associated with our habits by creating a prosperous
environment to make future actions easier.

[Chapter 13] There are decisive moments that deliver an outsized impact every
single day. As James puts, these decisive moments are a fork in the road,
sending us in the direction of a productive path or an unproductive one. To
avoid procrastination, the skill of 'Showing Up' says that we should start a new
habit by taking baby steps, making it as easy as possible to take action. “A new
habit should not feel like a challenge. The actions that follow can be
challenging, but the first 2 minutes should be easy. What you want is a gateway
habit that naturally leads you down a more productive path.” He calls it the
'Two-Minute Rule', meaning that new habits should take less than 2 minutes to do
in the beginning. Once the habit is established we can improve and master the
finer details.

[Chapter 14] In order to keep bad habits away is to make them difficult in the
first place. There are 2 interesting strategies to improve our future behavior.
[1] Make good choices in advance before we can fall victim to temptation in the
future. James gives a personal example by sharing that whenever he is looking to
cut calories he will ask the waiter to split his meal and box half of it to go
before the meal is served. If, however, he waits for the meal to be served and
tries to eat just half, that would never happen. [2] Make onetime actions that
can automate our future habits and deliver increasing returns over time such as
buying a good water filter, unsubscribing from unwanted emails, moving to a
friendlier neighborhood, buying a standing desk, or setting up automatic bill
pay.

[Section V : Make It Satisfying]

[Chapter 15] We should make sure to feel immediately satisfied after performing
a new habit to increase the odds that the behavior will be repeated next time.
“The human brain has evolved to prioritize immediate rewards over delayed
rewards.” For that, we can add a little bit of immediate pleasure to the habits
that pay off in the long-run.

[Chapter 16] Here we learn how to measure our progress by tracking our habits.
The immediate satisfaction it delivers—as mentioned earlier in Chapter 15—is one
of the many benefits that standout. Besides that, James says, “when we get a
signal that we are moving forward, we become more motivated to continue down
that path.” The most basic format to track our habits is to get a calendar and
mark an X each time we stick with our routine. One of the most important
passages of the entire book is as follows: “If you miss one day, try to get back
into it as quickly as possible. The first mistake is never the one that ruins
you. It is the spiral of repeated mistakes that follows. Missing once is an
accident. Missing twice is the start of a new habit. This is a distinguishing
feature between winners and losers. Anyone can have a bad performance, a bad
workout, or a bad day at work. But when successful people fail, they rebound
quickly.”

[Chapter 17] In order to prevent bad habits and/or eliminate unhealthy
behaviors, James says that we could either add an instant cost to the action or
make it painful. A habit contract is also another strategy to hold our
accountability: “It is a verbal or written agreement in which you state your
commitment to a particular habit and the punishment that will occur if you don't
follow through. Then you find one to two people to act as your accountability
partners and sign off on the contract with you.”

[Section VI : Advanced Techniques]

[Chapter 18] We learn how to distinguish habits when genes may or may not
influence our performance especially for competitive activities. “One of the
best ways to ensure your habits remain satisfying over the long-run is to pick
behaviors that align with your personality and skills.” James proposes us to set
some time apart to explore new activities in the beginning, before shifting our
focus to exploit them thoroughly.

[Chapter 19] When we find the sweet spot of our ability we tend to learn best
and fastest. The ‘Goldilocks Rule’ states that "humans experience peak
motivation when working on tasks that are right on the edge of their current
abilities. Not too hard. Not too easy. Just right.”

[Chapter 20] One downside of certain habits, James explains, is that we may stop
paying attention to the little details and errors. To counterbalance that we
should review and reflect on the process over time to remain conscious of our
own performance. Using a simple chart to convey his message, we learn that “the
process of mastery requires that you progressively layer improvements on top of
one another, each habit building upon the last until a new level of performance
has been reached and a higher range of skills has been internalized.”

PERSONAL THOUGHTS

Reading the book twice helped me take better notes and capture details. In the
meantime, I thought about 3 simple strategies that could improve our adherence
to new habits. Let me share these strategies here with you, and in the following
section, I will describe how I managed to cultivate the first 3 new habits upon
reading the book—following the system proposed by James together with these 3
strategies.

[1] The first strategy is about determining a 'commitment time frame' to avoid
excuses during this initial trial period. A 1-month time frame is a fair
commitment, choosing to start on the first day of the month to practice it every
single day for a full month. Just at the end of the period, I will take the time
to reflect and evaluate the pros and cons.

[2] The next one is to choose only 1 new habit each month. In doing so we become
familiar with the practice intentionally while we develop a sense of purpose.

[3] Last, during the first month of any new habit, I noticed that if I spend
time exploring the details and the benefits, my motivation stays high. It
doesn't only help us create better practices, but it is also inspiring to learn
from others who have succeeded previously by adding the same habit into their
lives. Podcasts, articles, videos, books, online courses, tutorials, and blog
posts are all good sources.

IMPLEMENTATION OF NEW HABITS

[Nov 1, 2018] I had been wanting to journal on a daily basis for many years but
that had never happened. Although I have carried a notebook with me for quite a
while, it has never worked as a real journal—a daily routine, when we sit down
and write personal thoughts, intentions, and reflections at around the same
time. Instead, it has been mostly used to take notes during meetings, to write
down ideas and thoughts, to express travel memories, and to doodle. Today, after
3+ months, I haven't looked back once, and still can't believe it took me that
long to start this daily habit. During the first month, I read blog posts,
watched videos, and even read a short and inexpensive book to foster my
creativity.

[Dec 1, 2018] I have been impressed by the physical capabilities we can develop
through body movement. Although yoga has been a special part of my life since I
was 18, I hadn't given proper attention to handstands. But now, after 2+ months
practicing it every day, it is rewarding to see improvements on a weekly basis.
Again, I definitely recommend watching videos and reading tutorials to find your
favorite method. This is the perfect habit to stack at the end or in the middle
of any physical movement practice you may enjoy.

[Jan 1, 2019] By now we know the benefits of cold showers—ranging from healthier
skin appearance all the way to a more resilient perspective of the world. I had
previously taken cold showers for 3 months in 2017, but it was a “goal” mindset
instead of a “habit” mindset. After that trial I set aside and, although I have
kept taking cold showers once or twice a week since then, I wished cold showers
was the default mode. Now, after 1+ month, I can't see myself taking warm
showers. After all, it is about intention. Again, we can learn uncountable
benefits of cold showers by reading success stories. One of my inspirations was
Wim Hof. It isn't comfortable in the beginning of any chosen day, but after 3-4
minutes, both my breath and thoughts calm down.

Putting them together, these 3 habits don't take more than 30 minutes of my day.
While I spend about 10 minutes journaling and 10 more minutes practicing
handstands, I save 5 minutes taking cold showers because I won't stay any longer
than necessary.

RECOMMENDATION

[1] First, if you have watched videos, listened to podcasts, read articles and
books on habit formation and, after all that, you feel satisfied, then, please,
save your money and time.

[2] However, if you are like me, that even after reading a few books on building
habits and having successfully added good habits to your life, feel that there
is still room for improvement, this book can be a terrific addition.

[3] Last, if you haven't spent much time and energy discovering a good system to
build lasting habits while breaking bad ones, please, read this book.

COMPLEMENTARY READINGS

[1] Game Changers, by Dave Asprey, exposed me to a wealth array of
ideas/habits/tools that have helped me decide which new habit to build next. The
book is divided into 46 laws.

[2] Essentialism, by Greg McKeown, helped me focus on less but more important
tasks, giving clarity to what matters most. This is especially interesting to
break bad habits.

[3] The Talent Code, by Daniel Coyle, brought more motivation when learning new
skills based on the assumptions that we develop new talents through deep
practices, finding our ignition identity, and having the right coach to guide us
genuinely. I read it many years ago, then, a few years back, I read his
following book called The Little Book of Talent—which is perhaps even more to
the point.

[4] The Systems View of Life, by Fritjof Capra, enlightened my perspectives on
how nature and living beings are systematically integrated. It is a profound and
slightly academic book that can complement Atomic Habits especially to tie
together the 4-step framework into the feedback loop system.

I sincerely hope you, too, have fun while building new habits.

Take care,

Haical

5.0 out of 5 stars One of the few life-changing books

As everyone person who starts their self-help journey, you read a ton of books
and learn a ton of things, but realize they don’t help a ton. This book is part
of the very few books that can actually change your life around. But just
reading it won’t do anything. Luckily, this book gives step-by-step guides that
can help even the biggest procrastinators.
The greatest thing this book helped me with is my sleep schedule. The main
concept I used was slowly building a habit and being forgiving. I use to try to
immediately jump into a new routine. For instance, wake up at 6am and then go to
the gym. But that eventually caught up to me as I still was falling asleep very
late. It’s extremely obvious, but it took me reading a few chapters to realize I
should consistently sleep early and wake up early, before I add in a gym
routine.

I highly recommend reading this book even if you think the concepts are obvious.
It may just take reading it on paper to finally practice what you preach.
Also, I’ve gifted this book many times and always get a “Thank you!” once it’s
read.

5.0 out of 5 stars Atomic Habits will change your life! 9 takeaways:
Reviewed in the United States on May 30, 2019
Verified Purchase
Atomic Habits by James Clear is one of those rare books that I immediately read
twice in a row. It is filled with dozens of science-backed and actionable
nuggets of wisdom. Do you want to improve any habits in your life? I heartily
recommend Atomic Habits to you! We are all driven by our habits - many of which
are unconscious. Below are 9 quotes and takeaways from this life-changing book:

1. "Getting 1 percent better every day counts for a lot in the long-run." Atomic
Habits explains why the little things you do every day matters. Your little
habits matter. It may not seem like a big deal to skip a workout or to be kind,
but it is a big deal. Imagine if you improved your habits by only 1% every day.
You'd be dramatically a different person in a year. Then imagine if you let your
habits decline by 1% every day. You'd be in a much worse spot in life overall a
year from now. Your little habits - atomic habits - count for a lot in the long
run. What little habits are you improving upon (or neglecting...) today?

2. "You do not rise to the level of your goals. You fall to the level of your
systems." This is such an important point in the book. Oftentimes we focus on
goals in our life, while neglecting to focus on the systems that help us achieve
goals. As an example, I had a friend who had the goal to complete a triathlon.
He achieved this goal! And then he quit working out for the next year and got
out of shape... He was so focused on achieving a goal that he neglected his
underlying systems of being healthy. Goal achievement can actually set us back
if we don't get set up sustainable systems. Get the systems right and then we'll
indeed also achieve our goals. Systems > Goals.

3. "Every action you take is a vote for the type of person you wish to become.
No single instance will transform your beliefs, but as the votes build up, so
does the evidence of your new identity." I love this quote from the book. Every
action - every habit - you take casts a vote for the type of person you want to
become. Do you want to be a more organized person? When you develop habits and
systems that organize your life, you are casting votes for thinking of yourself
as an organized person. You think to yourself, "hey, I'm an organized person."
And then you reinforce that belief with your habits and actions - a virtuous
cycle! The flip side of this can be true too. What if you often show up late to
meetings? You're casting votes that may make you think "well, I'm just a person
that is always late." An un-virtuous cycle. Be careful to make sure that your
habits and ultimately your beliefs cast votes for the type of person you want to
become and, indeed, who you truly are.

4. "How long does it actually take to form a new habit? You just need to get
your reps in." Atomic Habits answers the question of "how much time does it take
to form a new habit" with a better answer of : X number of actions. Meaning, you
may need to simply complete a new habit 100 times for it to stick, which could
be done in 3 days or 3 weeks or 3 months, depending on the new habit. It is
better to think of forming new habits in terms of consistently taking action,
versus trying to stick to a habit for just X number of days. Get your reps in.

5. "Reduce friction. Decrease the number of steps between you and your good
habits." The inverse of this is also true - increase friction between you and
your bad habits! I think about this a lot when it comes to eating healthy. I
need to reduce friction by having healthy food in the house and healthy snacks
at work. And I need to increase friction by not having candy in the house or in
my office! Out of sight, out of mind. In sight, and I eat it. :) (which of
course reminds me of the Dad joke I often tell my girls: "I'm on a seafood diet.
I see food and I eat it...)

6. "Use temptation bundling. Pair an action you want to do with an action you
need to do." This is a powerful concept. I put this in practice by only
"watching TV" when I'm on the treadmill. I am able to run at a 6 MPH pace and
watch TV or videos on the iPad when I'm on a treadmill. So, I generally only
watch sporting events or movies or 80s music videos on YouTube when I'm running
on the treadmill. This approach actually allows me to run longer if I want to
watch a full half of a game, for example. And 80s music videos will often give
me the energy to run that extra mile. :) Think about a new habit you want to
start and how you can bundle it with an action you're already taking. Stack them
together - i.e. habit stacking.

7. "Use a habit tracker. Keep track of your habit streak and 'don't break the
chain.'" Atomic Habits does a nice job of explaining the importance of tracking
your habits for success. What gets measured gets managed. One of my favorite
habit trackers is a FitBit/Apple Watch, which tracks steps, heart rate, sleep,
weight and can even track food intake/calories, if you input this data. My
behavior definitely changes thanks to these habit trackers. Atomic Habits gives
you additional habit tracker resources.

8. "Never miss twice. When you forget to do a habit, make sure you get back on
track immediately." We all will have days where we fall off the bandwagon and
our habits go in reverse. Well, that's okay for one day. Don't let it happen
twice. Get back on track as soon as possible. (And, yes, sometimes we miss a
habit two days in row. Just don't let it become three days...)

9. Author James Clear gets to the point quickly in Atomic Habits and with
actionable advice. James has been blogging about habits, health, happiness,
creativity and productivity since 2012. Check out a sampling of his writing at
his website. James is also fun to follow on Twitter. Atomic Habits has 20
relatively short chapters that open with compelling stories and end with helpful
chapter summaries. If you listen to books on Audible, I highly recommend the
audio book as James reads this book very passionately.

5.0 out of 5 stars "Atomic Habits Unveiled: A Philosopher's Take on Personal
Transformation"
Reviewed in Canada on December 2, 2023
Verified Purchase
All too often the advice given to people is of the order: 'To a depressed person
- "Just Cheer Up".' Or perhaps to a person trying to lose weight, "Eat less and
move more". While ultimately correct, has no real benefit to the person hearing
or reading the advice.

Atomic Habits is exactly the opposite. It provides many different ways to create
those habits within you. When I bought the book about this time last year, it
was supposed to be a Christmas present to myself - one gift among the clutter
(isn't that the correct collective noun for Christmas gifts?) just to surprise
everyone else, i.e. Santa does make deliveries to adults. Anyway . . .

I opened the book during the holidays and could not find that lump of time to
read it. Skimming through the book I got one essential point. Reading a book in
one lump might not work so well for people, but could you find 15 minutes every
morning to do this? At this moment in time, that made all the sense in the world
to me. I simply can not find the time to read the book in a lump or two. This is
actually something that has worked against me for years. It has limited my
progress and my development for the past decade. I do read quickly and on
occasion will find that lump of time, but nothing like the 15 minutes every
morning. That 15 minutes is the time it takes to boil water for my pour-over
coffee maker. I do cheat a little here because I could get my coffee in about 11
or 12 minutes, but let's run with this habit creation.

Starting January 2, 2023, the book was completed by the end of the month. Doing
the mathematics on this, I found 29 days with 1/4 of an hour each day. This
works out to over 7 hours of reading. That was my first read, and I shared this
with a friend. We work together on a political executive. Like the "Walking
Dead", he changed too. Looking at people who have not read or acquired the
skills of Atomic Habits, is much like seeing a person from Mars with two heads.
There is an oddity to blaming the lack of time.

Everyone reading this book will from the same common point develop their own
habits, and develop along their own path, but it will not be for lack of time.
Realize what I said, you will never be able to say that there is insufficient
time.

Here is another example of what happened to me during the past year. I drive 33
minutes to see a dear friend. I treasure the time we have discussing things for
he generates ideas and helps me generate those ideas. He does not really know
how very important he is to me. But, I then need to drive 33 minutes back. In
that hour, I listen to an Audible title - it is a new habit. My obvious caveat
here is that the route I take is rather mundane and there are few traffic lights
and the posted speeds are not that fast. It is a pleasant drive and now a
productive one.

So, keeping up with these two habits, let's see how much reading I get done now?

Waiting for coffee time: 0.25 hours x 365 = 91 hours of reading!
Driving to my buddy's 60 minutes x 50 = 50 hours or reading !!
The total amount of reading is now 140 hours of reading in one year. Just those
two atomic habits, and on average that could mean 28 books per year if I need 5
hours per book, but only 14 books if I read at the other end of average which is
10 hours per book. On average, a good approximate FOR YOU MIGHT be 7.5 hours per
book and therefore 21 books per year.

If you have read my review this far, congratulations! You have exactly what it
takes to master this one Atomic Habit and become a much better (I don't mean
moral) person. Buy the book! Read it in manageable chunks as I suggested. Get
Audible (no! I do not work for Amazon) to find those times when you have wasted
chunks of time.

Buy the book and make a positive difference in yourself. Let that difference
infect others (there is that Walking Dead theme again) and together make a
difference in your lives and your world.

a new habit like cultivating a flower. He really gets you apply your self in the

5.0 out of 5 stars A Game-Changer for Transforming Your Life, One Atomic Habit
at a Time!
Reviewed in Canada on June 16, 2023
Verified Purchase
I have always been intrigued by the idea of personal growth and
self-improvement, but I often found it challenging to make lasting changes in my
habits. That's where "Atomic Habits" by James Clear comes in, and let me tell
you, it's nothing short of a revelation.

This book takes a refreshingly practical approach to habit formation and
breaking bad habits. James Clear introduces the concept of atomic habits, which
are small, incremental changes that have a remarkable impact over time. By
focusing on the tiny, seemingly insignificant actions that make up our daily
routines, Clear demonstrates how these habits can compound and lead to
remarkable transformations.

One of the things I appreciated most about this book is Clear's ability to blend
scientific research with relatable anecdotes and practical advice. He doesn't
just preach theory; he provides actionable steps and strategies that are easy to
understand and implement in everyday life. The book is filled with compelling
examples and case studies that illustrate the power of atomic habits and how
they can shape our identity and determine our success.

Clear emphasizes the importance of creating an environment that supports our
desired habits, and he offers valuable insights into how to design our
surroundings to make good habits inevitable and bad habits nearly impossible.
His strategies for habit stacking, habit tracking, and habit shaping are
incredibly effective and have helped me establish positive routines and break
free from detrimental behaviors.

Another aspect I loved about "Atomic Habits" is how the author tackles the
inevitable setbacks and obstacles that come with habit change. Clear provides
practical advice on how to overcome plateaus, stay motivated, and recover from
slip-ups without falling back into old habits. He emphasizes the power of small
wins and the compounding effect they have on our motivation and self-belief.

By the time I finished reading this book, I had a newfound appreciation for the
potential of small, consistent actions to transform my life. "Atomic Habits" is
not just a book; it's a roadmap for personal growth and a guide to building a
life of intention and fulfillment. Whether you're looking to improve your
health, relationships, career, or any other area of your life, this book is a
must-read.

In conclusion, "Atomic Habits" is an absolute game-changer. It's a practical,
engaging, and well-researched book that offers a clear blueprint for building
good habits and breaking bad ones. James Clear's writing style is accessible and
relatable, making it an enjoyable read from start to finish. If you're serious
about transforming your life, I can't recommend this book highly enough. Get
ready to unleash the power of atomic habits and watch your life take off!
