Atomic Habits: An Easy & Proven Way to Build Good Habits & Break Bad Ones by James Clear

hopeful informative inspiring reflective medium-paced

4.0

I'm not one for self-help books in general because a lot of the ones that are popular tend to have the message of "Think positively and everything will get better." This is not that kind of book. Sure, it doesn't tend to address the systemic or health-related issues that could prevent you from living the life you dream about, but it breaks down the science and psychology of habits in a way that is attainable and actionable, which is a lot more than I can say for most self-help. I ended up taking a lot of notes throughout, which is generally a good sign for me. It's not a perfect book, but it did make the prospect of achieving your goals attainable.
