Atomic Habits: An Easy & Proven Way to Build Good Habits & Break Bad Ones by James Clear

5.0

so this is my first self help book and since I really have no other books to compare it to, overall I would say it was great! It didn’t feel like someone was just telling me to do xyz but rather was teaching the science and psychology behind habits and decisions that we make which made it pretty enjoyable for the most part. some of the stories about Olympians / pro sports / doctors / comedians / average ppl were honestly so cool to read and see how specialized these people are at their jobs all from the power of their habits (and sometimes genetics as discussed). I like how the book broke up these behaviors into the very simple framework for anyone: make it 1)obvious 2)attractive 3)easy 4)satisfying.

This is a book I would prob want to read again someday to reinforce and since I have been feeling a little lazy recently might try and start a few new habits of my own right now. hello sprint triathlon and hello cleaner living space!!!
