SKILLS BUILDER EXERCISE
ATOMIC HABITS
James Clear’s Atomic Habits: An Easy & Proven Way to Build Good Habits and Break Bad Ones is a guide to adopting good behaviors through incremental changes to your everyday routines.
In Atomic Habits, Clear suggests that bad habits are the result of unconscious cues triggering unproductive behavior. Drawing from neuroscience, sociology, psychology, sports, and the arts, Clear outlines strategies for reinforcing habits that enable you to reach your full potential. Success is not a singular goal, but a process of gradually improving and refining your craft. Establishing good systems is the best way to succeed.
