The phenomenal international best seller. Listen to the book everyone is talking about.
Transform your life with tiny changes in behaviour, starting now.
There's never been a better time to make a few tiny changes that will revolutionise your life.
A revolutionary system to get one per cent better every day.
People think when you want to change your life, you need to think big. But world-renowned habits expert James Clear has discovered another way. He knows that real change comes from the compound effect of hundreds of small decisions – doing two push-ups a day, waking up five minutes early, or holding a single short phone call.
He calls them atomic habits.
In this ground-breaking book, Clear reveals exactly how these minuscule changes can grow into such life-altering outcomes. He uncovers a handful of simple life hacks (the forgotten art of Habit Stacking, the unexpected power of the Two Minute Rule, or the trick to entering the Goldilocks Zone) and delves into cutting-edge psychology and neuroscience to explain why they matter. Along the way, he tells inspiring stories of Olympic gold medalists, leading CEOs and distinguished scientists who have used the science of tiny habits to stay productive, motivated, and happy.
These small changes will have a revolutionary effect on your career, your relationships, and your life.

Goals set krna achi bat he lekin us goal ko achieve karne k liye system ko behtar banana padega jo hame us goal tak pahuchayega.
Agar British Cycling team ki bat kare to gold medal jeetna to unka goal shuru re raha tha, lekin Dave ne jab system ko better banaya, to goal apne ap achieve ho gaya.
Maan lijiye apka room bikhra pada he. Ap ek goal set krte ho ki mujhe room clean karna hee to ek bar room clean ho jayega, lekin agar ap apni chijo ko sahi jagah rkhne ki adat bana lo to apka kamra kabhi bikhra milegha hi nai.
2 – Change your Identity :
Apni buri adato ko change krne ke liye hame adto ko chang karne s pehle apne aap ko change karna ki jrurt hoti he .
Hamari adte hamari identity ko follow krti he .
Example k liye –
Man lijiye ek insan cigarette chodne ki koshish krta he . Is douran jab use koi cigarette offer karta he to vo ye kahta he “ nahi yar, me cigg chodne ki kosis kar raha hu’
Usnea bhi tak apni identity nahi badli. Vo apne ap ko abhi bhi smoker manta he.
Lekin, agar vo ye kahe ki “ nahi yar, me cigg nahi pita” is se vo apni identity change kar leta he. Ab vo apne ap ko non smokere consider karta he . This new identity motivates that person to stick with it.
3 – Change your Environment -
Hamare sath akshar esa hota h ki ham kitchen me jate to paani pine k liye, lekin hamari nazar chips k packet pe padti he or ham use khane lagte he .
Hairani ki baat ye he ki hame na to bhookh lagi thi or na hi chips khane ki ichha hui thi.
Malls vale yahi technique use krte he, mehange or profitable products racks me upar or ankho ki range me rakhi jate he jo customer ko easily notice ho jate he .
And chances are that customers in products ko jrurt na hote hue bhi kharid lete he.
Isi technique se ham bhi kisi bhi habit ko abopt kar skte he ya kisi bad habit ko chord bhi skte he.
Fruits jyada khanee h ? to fruit basket ko vaha rkho jaha ap apna din ka sabs jyada time spnd krte ho. Jab fruits apki ankho k samne rahnge to ap automatically unhe consume krne lag jaoge.
Padhai krt krte distract hote h to padhai k liy alag room, ya room me alag table ko study zone bana do. Yani padhai bed pe nhi usi enviorment m kroge, to apka mind kam distract hoga qki usko pata h k aap study zone m ho.
4. Don’t run for the best: Ek choti si interesting si story share krta hu. Florida University ke ek professor ne apne photography students ko 2 groups me divide kiya. Pehle group ko yeh challenge diya ki unko pure semester jyada se jyada photos submit karne he , 100 photos submit krne vale ko A grade, 90 vale ko B.
Or dusre group ko challenge diya to submit only 1 photo but that has to be the perfect one. Jiska photo sabse perfect hoga usko A grade, or us se kam vale ko B grade milega.
Interesting.
At the end of the semester saare best photos surprisingly first group se aye.
Aap bhi soch rahe honge k esa kese hua, dusra group jisne pura semester ek photo ko perfect krne me lagaya unke photos best rank me q nahi aye ?
Because jaha dusra group ek hi photo ko perfect banana me laga raha, pehle group ne jab bahot sare photos click kiye to isi ke sath unki skills bhi enhance hoti rahi. Vo har photo me experiment karte rahe or apni hi mistakes se sikhte rahe.
Agar apko business krna he ya startup krna he or best idea ya best opportunity k liye ruke he to ap kabhi start hi nahi kar paynege,
Jo bhi idea he jesi bhi opportunity he uspe jab mehnat ki jayegi to vo hi best ban jayega.
This book has always been in my list to read.
A very easy going book with such good examples,James clear was so clear in his thoughts that even a kid can understand that all it requires is slight adjustment in your thoughts to change/start a habit.
Just wanted to express my gratitude to the author for this master piece ❤️
A highly recommended book for anyone who wish to give "change" a chance.
My biggest take away here is that focussing on systems and habits to improve by 1% daily will automatically make you reach your goals. Audacious goals without great habits are bound not to be reached. Develop great habits on a daily basis and you're on the path to a great life!
Top reviews from other countries

With all due respect to author's team exceptional ability to better market & monetize original authors' ideas, my two cents is that this is, at its best, a two-page worth of original content which is bulked into an unnecessarily verbose & repetitive three-hundred-something pages book that was mostly a waste of time.
The literature not only targets the average Joe out there, but also repeats itself constantly. Constantly. Constantly. Constantly. Constantly. Constantly. Constantly. Constantly. Constantly. Constantly. And I mean, cons-tant-ly! (I wish this review becomes as successful!)
So, to give you the tldr you'd need and save you the trouble:
The author reads the Duhig's "power of habit" and Eyal's "hooked" books and starts summerizing "his framework" upon those original ideas. As he mentions himself:
"Charles Duhigg and Nir Eyal deserve special recognition for their influence on this image. This representation of the habit loop is a combination of language that was popularized by Duhigg’s book, The Power of Habit, and a design that was popularized by Eyal’s book, Hooked."
Here's the original content and the framework he proposes:
For good habits:
- Make it obvious (cue)
- Make it attractive (craving)
- Make it easy (response)
- Make it satisfying (reward)
Do the opposite for the bad ones. And he calls it "The Four Laws of Behavior Change". And the rest is considerable loads of examples and repeatitions. Yup. Millions of sales. Magic.
Yup, it's totally fine to expand & build upon others' ideas. It's how human knowledge grows. But come on, it's just 4 sentences. Ok, add one paragraph explanation per each, one example per each and then one page conclusion and that'd be a nice blog post I'd enjoy.

P.S. Duhig has also introduced a framework himself:

That said, sometimes you do need the reminder. And I did pick up a few useful tips. So it’s worth the read. But don’t expect anything special.

No, if you think of the many books published in the last four years that do deserve more copies sold or to stay in the NYT Best Seller List longer than this one - I could name a few far better books published only one or two months back. But reflections on the market and quality and best-selling charts and sales apart, this is a good book, well written, non-academical, simple, practical and that has managed to find a niche of readers in these hectic, social-media-crazy days and that has touched an obvious nerve. In this field, it's a good book that deserves praise - and to be read.
One of its many merits, as I mentioned above, is that's very practical - it has good and ready examples of ways to improve efficiency and work; and in the way, to feel better. The author has also an obvious talent for expressing abstract notions with just a few words. His main theory, the "cue-craving-response-reward", while not life-changing is at the very least intriguing and looks easy to put in place and to be used as a blueprint for daily routines. The author tries and manages to get to his audience through simplicity - "I knew it, but I never knew how to describe it" is what the reader will say often throughout the text. In this sense is quite similar to another best seller of the self-help milieu: Dr Julie Smith's "Why has nobody told me this before", a far better, deeper book that manages also to reach and help its readers quite effortlessly, and that also has managed to sell in vast amounts. And, to complete the triad of current worthy self-help books, do try also "Can't Hurt Me", by David Goggings, rather different in tone, but very good too, and also funnier. (I've reviewed in this platform).
On the minus side, perhaps the text tries sometimes too hard in being too easy and becomes too basic, almost to the point of looking patronizing. For instance, with the advice on how to use less a mobile phone: by putting it in the next room. The book falls a few times for examples of this sort, too over-simplistic, as if it was addressing an audience of 7 to 12 years old.
Also a flaw, and this one is directed to the publisher, it is obvious the effort in trying to present the book as much larger than it actually is. The book is crowded with charts, blank pages, short bullet points, sentences taking a whole page, etc. It has 270 pages and without all those wasted spaces it should have been 70 or 100 pages less, but then it would look "short", something the publisher obviously tried to avoid (it happens a lot nowadays), as if a book is better for being thicker or longer.
So all and all, a good book that's far from life-changing, but in which everyone will find a few practical tips for everyday life; nothing more, but nothing less than that.



Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on 16 January 2020



This book is completely different, a no nonsense, down to earth practical piece with fantastic takeaways which anyone can apply so easily to fit in with their lifestyle. It is so methodical in it's approach and so clear (the family name suits him well! :-p).
It has a perfect blend of research, anecdotes, real life stories, tools and references. I also love his sense of humour and those little details interjected along the way. I simply did not want the book to end.
I urge anyone who loves the book to read his blog which has loads of truly awesome resources. Having implemented some of the tools, I already find that they have had a tremendous impact.
He is for me the Dale Carnegie of the modern era with added humour. Cannot recommend this book enough. I bought it on Kindle and had to buy the paperback version too to have it on my shelf!
