I didn't love the opening of this book because while the author was trying to establish his credibility, it in fact did the opposite. Anytime nonfiction books begin by explaining why they are credible for the topic, I instantly think...why do they need to convince me? I much prefer the personal bits at the end. Once we got past that, I began to really enjoy the book more. I thought that he brought in a lot of practical tips and real-life applications for the things he was saying. I appreciated the references to his research and scientific backing. However, the book dipped again in the back half, and I think it's because he stopped giving tangible tips and actions to do, and it was more philosophically based. At the end of the day, I do feel like I took away some valuable information and tools for how to improve habits and new ways to look at them and therefore I am glad to have read this book.
