If you want a step-by-step plan for building better habits—not for days or weeks, but for a lifetime, this book is for you. James Clear includes dozens of examples of individuals and companies who made major progress in improvement implementing a system of continuous small, incremental steps. An atomic habit refers to a tiny change, a marginal gain, a one percent improvement. However small, they are little habits that are part of a larger system; atomic habits are the building blocks of remarkable results. Ultimately, it is your commitment to the process that will determine your progress.
“When you fall in love with the process of improvement rather than the end goal, you don’t have to give yourself permission to be happy.”
“The ultimate form of intrinsic motivation is when a habit becomes part of your identity. It’s one thing to say I’m the type of person who wants this. It’s something very different to say I’m the type of person who is this. Progress requires unlearning. Becoming the best version of yourself requires you to continuously edit your beliefs, and to upgrade and expand your identity. In this way, the process of building habits is actually the process of becoming yourself.”
“Habits do not restrict freedom; they create it. In fact, the people who don’t have their habits handled are often the ones with the least amount of freedom. Without good financial habits, you will always be struggling for the next dollar. Without good health habits, you will also be short of energy. Conversely, when you have your habits dialed in and the basics of life handled, your mind is free to focus on new challenges and master the next set of problems.”
