Atomic habits : Tiny changes, remarkable results : an easy & proven way to build good habits & break bad ones / James Clear.

Summary:

Clear, an expert on habit formation, reveals practical strategies that will teach you exactly how to form good habits, break bad ones, and master the tiny behaviors that lead to remarkable results. Bad habits repeat themselves again and again not because you don't want to change, but because you have the wrong system for change. Here, he draws on the most proven ideas from biology, psychology, and neuroscience to create an easy-to-understand guide for making good habits inevitable and bad habits impossible. -- adapted from jacket.
