Atomic Habit

Summary from atomic habit book that I’ve read.

  1. Focus on process/system/activities instead of goals or results. You will get the result soon without you aware.
  2. To make a new habit, make the cue visible, the bait attractive, the process to do it easy and the reward satisfying.
  3. Habit stack – try to make a new habit on top of existing habit. For example, to read Quran everytime after solat.
  4. Create an environment or surrounding that will help to form a good habit. Much better than motivation. It’s the “visible cue” that matters.
  5. The seductive pull of social norms – people closest to us, majority around us or imitating the powerful/success people/icon. (pg .115)
  6. Peer pressure – if everyone is doing one activity, we’ll also most likely to follow. So find the right peers.
  7. The closer we are to someone, the more likely we are to imitate some of their habits (pg. 116)
