3.5 stars. I wish I had bought this book instead of checking it out of the library. The chapters are short and each focuses on a different way to change your life (as the title implies). Some of the strategies are a bit unrealistic or idealistic, but there were some good tidbits. I think I would have digested it better read in a few snippets at a time rather than in one progression.

I did like how digestible the book’s tips were and the fact that she brought in lots of experts.

This book is exactly as advertised: 100 short tips on how to improve your life, written and narrated by the creator of the Liz Moody Podcast. The advice is divided into eighteen sections of four to eight individual tips. Each section focuses on a specific way you might want to make a change: how to have more success, increase productivity, be happier, live longer, or overcome roadblocks.

These tips might not be new, but the book is very well organized and digestible. The author recommends implementing no more than three tips per week for anything that you may want to try, and the format make it simple to select a focus area and read only that section before starting a new strategy. Every suggestion is practical, offers additional resources (largely longer episodes of the Liz Moody podcast and her expert guests), and includes relevant examples of recipes and a personal Bill of Rights.

My favorite tips I’m going to attempt to implement: leaving my phone out of the bedroom, introducing micro-workouts, and just start (creative projects). I also love the idea of an advice club, but am not really sure how to go about that one yet, so I’ll leave that to the future.
