About Atomic Habits

We all have bad habits we’d like to get rid of and good habits we’d like to develop. But changing our habits is much easier said than done. According to James Clear, author of Atomic Habits: An Easy & Proven Way to Build Good Habits & Break Bad Ones and one of the world's leading experts on habit formation, if you’re struggling with your habits, the problem is not you. It’s your system. Without the proper system for change, you’ll never be able to meaningfully change your habits, whether bad or good.

Fortunately for us, Atomic Habits gives us the proven system we need for long-term habit change. And it’s easier and more straightforward than you might think. In the book, James Clear draws on well-proven ideas from biology, psychology, and neuroscience to create an easy-to-understand guide for making good habits unavoidable and bad habits unappealing. He provides practical strategies that will show you precisely and formulaically how to form good habits, break bad habits, and master those tiny actions that eventually lead to extraordinary results.

This summary of Atomic Habits is NOT the original book and is meant to be read as a supplement to the original.
