Tiny Changes, Remarkable Results


No matter your goals, Atomic Habits offers a proven framework for improving--every day. James Clear, one of the world's leading experts on habit formation, reveals practical strategies that will teach you exactly how to form good habits, break bad ones, and master the tiny behaviors that lead to remarkable results.

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.

    This was an amazing read. I loved how informative it was, how he included so many different people/ careers. I feel like I learned so much from this book and it helped me out immensely with habit tracking. The reason I gave it 4 stars was because I he repeated so much stuff. Once he got done talking about something he was say the same thing over again a couple pages later.

    I read this book at the beginning of the year and it was the perfect time for it. I found it practical, honest, inspiring, and both intelligently and beautifully written. As I read, I often took notes down in my vision sheet - such is the power of this book, having the ability to cause you to refine your vision and system on the go. As someone in academia, I am inspired to recommend this book to my students at the beginning of the school year; and to my friends and family. It is a deeply impactful book, one that I will keep closely in years ahead. One of the most important books I have read.

    Not only did James Clear provide a better perspective on how to view and approach my habits to ensure I change the bad ones to good ones, he gave simple, easy action steps along the way. Much needed! Having the knowledge and understanding first and then also being guided on HOW to go about making those changes, makes all the difference. I’ve already started applying several of these habit laws and have noticed an improvement in my habits. I’m excited to continue getting 1% better every day and compounding my success in various parts of my life. (For perspective on my review, I’m a mid-30’s female entrepreneur whose biggest challenge has been time management and juggling the duties of all the hats I currently wear in my business.) Loved this book, highly recommended! Definitely a staple piece on my digital bookcase now.
