This book is totally worth the read if you are looking to view your behavior differently and even make some informed life changes! I am a clinical psychotherapist and I’m VERY careful on book recommendations to give clients for supplemental reading, as many self-help books are trash and even harmful. After reading it I feel comfortable encouraging others to read it. James Clear does a great job at making the material not just palatable, but memorable and succinct! There are a few mentions of dieting and weightloss that I found to be inaccurate or promoting a skewed perspective of eating and fitness habits when used in examples, but other than that it’s a good read based on the collection of empirically-backed data and research.
