The main ideas of the book:
- This book shows you how to build better habits in life and work.
- With four simple laws of human behavior, you can make any habit a regular part of your life.
Why I chose this book:
We all have habits we want to drop or start. For most people, having better habits makes them a better person. For school and district leaders, having better habits impacts your entire school or district. Even if it’s a personal habit like sleeping more – think of the ramifications of having a leader with a clear head to make better decisions.
With four simple laws (outlined below), and very concrete strategies, James Clear shows us how to make the types of tiny changes that will ultimately lead to those remarkable changes we hope to see.
Plus, this book is a pleasure to read. I was entertained as well as inspired by the vivid stories – the 23-year-old stockbroker who earned millions using a jar of paperclips and the author who finished a book by hiding his clothes so he couldn’t leave his desk. I’m ready to start HABIT STACKING and TEMPTATION BUNDLING!
