Atomic Habits: the life-changing million-copy #1 bestseller

Product Information

What I really liked about Atomic Habits is how Clear breaks common sense things down into small, bite-sized chunks that are easily digestible.

I actually think this is key information that provides a healthy balance in life, and belongs right up there in chapter 1 with all the other information about identity. Daily habits are powerful because of how they compound, but worrying too much about every daily choice is like looking at yourself in the mirror from an inch away.For example, I usually drink a cup of coffee in the morning, so I pair the reading with drinking coffee. As if this wasn´t already painful and difficult enough, the self experimental subject now has to implement unused, and thereby for the crying, sobbing, angry brain very painful, new neuronal integrated circuits because, as one knows, reptile stem brain and monkeys social anxiety wants one to run far away from everything new, different, possibly dangerous.

Becoming the best version of yourself requires you to continuously edit your beliefs, and to upgrade and expand your identity. There is always some space left toward top performance but without modifying or even changing habits, they won´t be possible and nothing is more painful than stopping a working, well known, perfected, but ineffective habit, using an oldfashioned program, modify a schedule, use knowledge and expertise in a new, complicated, unknown way, etc. The more pride you have in a particular aspect of your identity, the more motivated you will be to maintain the habits associated with it. From the ‘10,000 hours rule’ to the power of Tiger parenting, we have been taught that success in any field requires early specialization and many hours of deliberate practice.Definitely needed this read during this stage of my journey - moving to a new state, finding my career path, being a new mum etc I need to revamp myself and better myself I’m everyday possible, starting off with my habits.

Siempre había tenido la creencia de que crear un hábito es algo supremamente difícil pero después de esta lectura siento que he estado errado muchísimos años y que realmente es bastante sencillo. He further adds that while it's good to have goals, to give us some direction on where we want to go in life, we shouldn't focus on just achieving the goal, but rather ensuring our system supports us in achieving that goal first. For example, waking up every day at 6 am, reading a book for 5 min or 1 page every single day, and practicing the guitar for five minutes. The likes of “habit stacking” and “habit tracking” are things that I have started implementing since reading this.While "Atomic Habits" didn't meet my personal expectations, it may still hold potential for people who are new to the subject or resonate with the author's approach. I will also read everyday and review on Goodreads more frequently because it helps me remain focused on the process. It's evident that this is just another platform to boost his personal brand and generate 'passive income'.

Atomic Habits by James Clear is a comprehensive, practical guide on how to change your habits and get 1% better every day. Atomic Habits teaches you how small habits (many of which you aren't even aware of) compound over time to make a huge difference in your life. In the book, author James Clear explains the monumental impact that even the smallest of habits can make on your life, as he shares his own story. Fie că e vorba de Masterclass, fie că e vorba de tot felul de prelegeri ale unor profesori puse pe yt (mare chestie yt premium, că nu te mai opresc reclamele), fie că e vorba de podcasturi, dau drumul și în cel mult zece minute adorm (asta și după ce am adoptat o rutină de respirație care induce somnul - inspir numărând până la patru, expir numărând până la 8, adormi ca un copil, tati! Finally, to make it satisfying, I incorporated yoga into my schedule to correspond with the sunrise – another habit I’ve been trying.Instead, what I encounter is a bloated book filled with unnecessary fluff, making it feel like an extended infomercial for the author's blog.
