ESSENTIAL READS : Atomic Habits by James Clear ⚛️
In an effort to provide as much value as possible, I will begin posting summaries of the books I am reading, as well as a free copy of the book if you'd like to read and share your insights. I will add all of these to the "Library" Chat. Synopsis: - Build Habits Automatically: The more a habit integrates into your life, the less you need external motivation to maintain it. - 1% Better Every Day: Small, daily improvements compound over time, leading to significant progress. Just 1% better each day can make you nearly 37 times better in a year. - Patience with Potential: Major changes require persistence. The most impactful results of habits are often delayed, so stay patient and consistent. - The Habit Loop: Understand the cycle of cue, craving, response, and reward. Mastering this loop helps in building sustainable habits. - Continuous Improvement: Regularly reassess and refine your beliefs and habits to become the best version of yourself. - Habit Stacking: Link new habits to existing ones to make them easier to adopt. - Join a Supportive Culture: Surround yourself with people who embody the habits you want to cultivate. Shared goals and support enhance habit formation. - Never Miss Twice: Missing once is a mistake, missing twice forms a new bad habit. Get back on track immediately after a slip-up. - Align with Natural Abilities: Build habits that suit you naturally. Don't force yourself into habits that others find popular. - Consistency Over Motivation: True progress comes from staying committed even when motivation wanes. The ability to keep going when it's tough makes all the difference.
