If you're having trouble changing your habits, the problem isn't you. The problem is your system. Bad habits repeat themselves again and again not because you don't want to change, but because you have the wrong system for change. You do not rise to the level of your goals. You fall to the level of your systems. Here, you'll get a proven system that can take you to new heights.
Clear is known for his ability to distill complex topics into simple behaviors that can be easily applied to daily life and work. Here, he draws on the most proven ideas from biology, psychology, and neuroscience to create an easy-to-understand guide for making good habits inevitable and bad habits impossible. Along the way, readers will be inspired and entertained with true stories from Olympic gold medalists, award-winning artists, business leaders, life-saving physicians, and star comedians who have used the science of small habits to master their craft and vault to the top of their field.
Learn how to:
make time for new habits (even when life gets crazy);
overcome a lack of motivation and willpower;
design your environment to make success easier;
get back on track when you fall off course;
...and much more.
Atomic Habits will reshape the way you think about progress and success, and give you the tools and strategies you need to transform your habits--whether you are a team looking to win a championship, an organization hoping to redefine an industry, or simply an individual who wishes to quit smoking, lose weight, reduce stress, or achieve any other goal.
Excellent explanation of problems with forming good habits and stopping bad ones. There are solutions for each of the problems. He starts off with a key for me which I'd say is basically to concentrate on my system rather than on goals. That shifted my mindset to something I can do now rather than focusing on what will be in the future. This book was filled with information-not one of those that just harps about one thing with complaints about the ways some other expert has it all wrong. This is a solid book with sensible information with a bit of encouragement and some good examples added.
Hay cosas que me han gustado mucho y cosas que no tanto. 3'5 estrellas para mí.
Me ha sorprendido que la historia sea tan diferente a la historia popular que el cine ha metido en nuestras cabezas. Me ha decepcionado algunas cosas de la narración, como el propio momento "nacimiento" del monstruo. Creo que se le notan los años más de lo que esperaba.
Me ha parecido curioso el nivel de anidamiento de narraciones (cartas donde se cuentan historias de otros, que cuentan cartas e historias de otros).
Me ha gustado el desarrollo quijotesco de los personajes.
Me gusta leer este tipo de libros de vez en cuando, aunque lo haga con mirada crítica, siempre aprendo algo.
Es verdad que fomentan ese tipo de sociedad hiperproductiva que odio, así que lo dicho, ojo con caer en la autoexplotación que promueve el sistema, y la mirada del éxito desde el "hacer mucho".
De cualquier modo, si intentas generar nuevos hábitos, hay buenos y útiles consejos. Lo recomiendo
Like many self help books, this could be an article and just as usefully make all the points. I've found what was said to be true to my learning about creating and keeping productive habits. So it is useful if this is what you are trying to do - or at least would be to someone like me. I think you can probably generally just skim, dive into interesting parts, and read chapter summaries to save time.
