Atomic Habits – The Fundamentals

By James Clear

Compound Interest of Self-Development 
  • 1% better each day, 37% better in one year
  • 1% worse each day, down to zero
Breakthrough moment
  • Ice to melt
  • x overnight success
  • Mastery requires patience
Focus on system, not goals for continuous small components
  • Why? Winners & losers have the same goals!
  • Achievement is only momentary
Change Identity, Process, Outcome
  • Change WHO YOU ARE
  • “I am a reader, I am a runner”, not “I want to read”, “I have to read”
  • (1) Decide what type of person you want to be
  • (2) Prove it with small wins & evidence
Habits – solve life problem with least effort & energy, repeated enough to become automatic 
  1. Make it obvious
  2. Make it attractive
  3. Make it easy
  4. Make it satisfying
