About this book
You keep trying to change one habit, and the first few days look promising. Then the old cue shows up, the easy excuse wins, and the change disappears before it can take root. What if the problem is not your effort, but the way your day is set up to beat you?
What you'll learn
- You’ll learn how to shrink a new habit to a two-minute starter so starting no longer depends on willpower.
- You’ll learn how to attach a new behavior to an existing routine, so the cue is already built into your day.
- You’ll learn how to redesign your space so good habits are easier to notice and harder to avoid.
- You’ll learn how to make habits stick by adding immediate satisfaction and simple tracking, so progress feels real before the long-term results arrive.
