To sum it up: it&#8217;s a long road to success, it&#8217;s not for the weak of heart, but anyone can do it. Micro changes in your life &#8211; if executed consistently and correctly &#8211; can help you achieve your goals.<\/p>\n<p>If you want to achieve something bad enough, then you can do it. Limiting beliefs often hold us back in life, but with the proper instruction, you can achieve things you never even imagined possible. This is what James Clear preaches.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Making_Time_For_New_Habits\"><\/span><strong>Making Time For New Habits<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>In today&#8217;s world, full of stress and people depending on a living wage from a 9-5 job, it&#8217;s hard to find time to improve your life. James Clear gives you insight and instruction on how you can find the time (even when it&#8217;s difficult). Even micro habits can make big changes over time; as the old saying goes, &#8220;Rome wasn&#8217;t built in a day,&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>Designing a proper environment for success is one way to speed up the process of success. If you have your gym clothes and gym bag ready before you go to bed at night, and put them by the front door, you are more inclined to follow through and go to the gym in the morning. James Clear summarizes tons of ways you can set yourself up for success.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Developing_a_Strong_Identity_and_Self_Belief\"><\/span><strong>Developing a Strong Identity and Self Belief<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Anyone can say &#8220;I want to lose weight&#8221; or &#8220;I want to study something new&#8221;; but to go out and back up your words isn&#8217;t something everyone can do. The human mind is capable of greatness, but there needs to be a powerful belief system in place or you could risk crumbling under the pressure.<\/p>\n<p>Building a strong new identity can be intimidating if you are used to failure. You become comfortable in the life you are living, and fears hold you back. The stronger person you will become will have the power to overcome that fear by regularly attacking it, even when it&#8217;s hard to.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Common_Mistakes_People_Make_When_Breaking_Bad_Habits\"><\/span><strong>Common Mistakes People Make When Breaking Bad Habits<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Without the knowledge of an excellent teacher, it&#8217;s damn near impossible to learn new ways to approach life successfully. James Clear is a sought-after motivational speaker and has the credentials to back up his words.<\/p>\n<p>Correcting bad habits requires overcoming a lack of motivation and willpower, and by reading this book, you are taking the first step of changing who you are and becoming who you want to be. This book will give you the tools you need to learn how to do so.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Who_Should_Read_Atomic_Habits_vs_Who_Shouldnt\"><\/span><strong>Who Should Read Atomic Habits vs. Who Shouldn&#8217;t<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>&#8216;Atomic Habits&#8217; is an influential book for anyone to read who is serious about changing their life. &#8216;Atomic Habits&#8217; can be summed up as a self-help book so it would make a perfect gift for anyone who is struggling to get ahead and who needs guidance and structure.<\/p>\n<p>The book truly is suitable for anyone, because everyone can improve their lives and there is always something new to be learned, but if you read the book without taking action, you are wasting your time.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Review_of_Atomic_Habits\"><\/span><strong>Review of Atomic Habits<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>There are a lot of positive things an open-minded person can take away from this book. For starters, reading something new and expanding your mind is always beneficial because even if you know a lot about the subject, there is always something else a different person&#8217;s point of view can offer. The human mind needs to be engaged, and having the awareness that you can always learn something &#8211; even if it&#8217;s only one thing &#8211; makes this a great book overall for anyone interested in the topic.<\/p>\n<p>The negatives of the book are that it can be wordy, and sometimes the topics discussed have obvious solutions. That being said, people often overlook the obvious in life, and anytime you re-education yourself with the basics in life, you can learn something beneficial.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Should_You_Read_the_Atomic_Habits_by_James_Clear\"><\/span><strong>Should You Read the Atomic Habits by James Clear?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Atomic Habits&#8217; has a lot of useful knowledge, especially for a young person trying to navigate their way through life, and is written by someone with wisdom who has lived longer, and who can offer young people new insights and knowledge.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s not an exact guide on how to be successful, but if you approach reading it nondiscriminatory, I believe it is worth the time to read.
