Atomic Habits
tiny changes make a big difference
the quality of our lives depend on the quality of our habits
to write a great book you have to become the book
results doesn’t come quickly, habits are dismissed bcoz of that
small changes can really impact in the future for good or bad
pay attention to your life trajectory no that much on the results
in order to see results persistence is needed
forget about goals focus on systems instead, goals are the results and system is the process.
- Winners and losers have the same goals
- Archiving a goal is momentary change
- Goals restrict your happiness. Success is not happiness failure is ok
- Goals are odds with long-term progress
changing the outcomes, changing the process, changing identify. Get, do and believe
believe drives actions
start with believes and identity before defining goals and the habits
the goal is not get something, the goal is to become something
habits and believes cannot be in conflict
progress requieres unlearning
You accumalte evidence (habits, actions) which later shapes your identity, day by day, habits by habit
who you are, what you do
bad habits happen,you can’t be perfect. it’s like voting, majority wins
what a ZZZ person would do to get ZZZ?, Become thelat type of person, not to get particular outcome
habits are brain shortcuts from experience
good habits for finance, health
cue, graving, response and reward. Is how habits work
cue is linked to desire
brain is a reward detector
cue obvious, craving attractive, response easy, reward satisfying. Laws. To break bad habits invert them
make it obvious
- habits can become unconscious
- make unconscious conscious
- point and call to help be conscious, self awareness
- time and location defines a clue
- being specific and have a plan already before head makes habits simplier and effective
- ditero effect, much people decides after what they just did. Chain on habits. Habit stacking. One habit triggers another
- environment affects planning on habits, shapes behaviour
