A one stop solution for all your problems. Habits are the building blocks of our future and if we can learn to control it, nothing can stop us from achieving.

Definitely helps alot when you're a procastinator, I used to always sit around aimlessly looking for videos and random content anywhere to help "motivate" me but this book definitely taught me it's about discipline and not motivation and probably a sign that if you WANT to become more knowledgeable don't turn to YouTube or Tiktok just turn to an actual solid book (or you'll end up in a loophole watching tiktoks for an hour)

Buku self improvement yang cukup practical buatku. Ada beberapa take-on yang ku dapat dari bukunya. Kucoba rangkum secara singkat ya: 1. Dalam memulai kebiasaan baru, jangan berfokus ke “Goals” atau tujuan, tapi fokus ke sistemnya. Goals menghadapkan kita pada situasi “jika-maka” jika aku berhasil, maka aku senang. Jika gagal, maka aku tidak bersemangat. Kita bisa menghindari situasi itu dengan berfokus ke sistem. 2. Alih-alih berfokus ke satu set tujuan, coba membayangkan identitas seperti apa yang ingin kamu tiru? Coba mulai identifikasi tokoh/orang yang kamu kagumi, lihat kebiasaan atau hal apa saja yang membentuk mereka jadi sosok yang kita ketahui? 3. Start small, make it simple. Buat kebiasaan yang ingin kamu bentuk menjadi sangat mudah untuk dilakukan. Gak ada yang salah kalau kamu ingin mulai membaca satu halaman buku per hari, atau tiga push-up setiap pagi. Kata kuncinya: mudah. 4. Konsisten. Lakukan berulang-ulang. Progres satu persen yang dilakuin per hari, kalau setahun berarti udah 356 persen improvement yang kita lakukan. Inget, setiap perubahan sekecil apapun, itu tetap progres. Sifatnya compounding, dari angka yang kecil, lama-lama menumpuk menjadi sesuatu yang besar. 5. Selain mudah dan konsisten, buat kebiasaan kita jadi menarik. Pastikan setiap kebiasaan positif baru yang ingin kita terapkan punya rewardnya. Bisa reward jangka panjang, bisa reward jangka pendek. Untuk kebiasaan negatif, lakukan kebalikannya. Buat jadi sulit, tidak menarik dan tidak terlihat. Well, that’s it for now. Ku sangat menyarankan buku ini buat yang ingin mencoba membentuk kebiasaan baru dan keluar dari kebiasaan lama. Mudah dimengerti dan bisa langsung dipraktekkan!

Most of the mindsets I have are slowly changing mostly because this book has kept me thinking about the 2-minute rule which didn't abruptly made me super fast at work but I somehow see how I'm trying to cultivate a better habit of following through.

James Clear writes very well and simply. The concepts were set out very straightforwardly, so I always knew what the point of each chapter was. I appreciated the use of the case studies and concrete suggestions in each chapter. The chapter summary at the end of each chapter made it easy to revise what I'd just read. You're likely to get something out of this, and probably quite a few things.

Baca ini buat buddyread sama akar pangkat haha. Tipsnya mudah diterapkan tapi ya butuh disiplin. Aku relate banget sama bagian kebiasaan itu mengukuhkan identitas. Yang ga disangka, baca tentang kebiasaan bisa sedikit berujung ke self-discovery. Might reread.

Awal tahun baca Atomic Habit menurutku keputusan yang tepat. Meski aku sendiri blm menerapkan isinya secara keseluruhan, menurutku buku ini cukup persuasif, membuatku ingin berubah ke arah yang lebih baik. Aku ga terlalu ahli untuk mereview buku nonfiksi, jadi akan kutuliskan kesan yang kudapat saat membacanya. Aku membaca versi terjemahan Indonesia. Untuk sekelas buku terjemahan nonfiksi, bahasanya sangat mudah dipahami. Font , ukuran huruf dan tatanan layout sangat nyaman dipandang. Terdapat ilustrasi tambahan berupa tabel, grafik dan skema yang memudahkan kita untuk memahami isi buku. Aku suka sekali dengan contoh-contoh nyata yang penulis berikan di setiap bab. Sangat relatable dengan kehidupan, membuatmu mudah dalam memahami apa yang ingin penulis sampaikan. Terdapat rangkuman/ringkasan di setiap akhir bab. Sungguh, ini sangat membantuku dalam mengingat poin penting dari keseluruhan isi bab. Tidak lupa, Catatan di akhir buku. Aku kagum dengan cara penulis yang amat sangat menghargai apapun dan siapapun yang membantunya dalam menulis buku ini. Ada subbab dimana ia menuliskan kredit, serangkaian catatan, rujukan, dan kutipan yang ia pakai untuk membantunya menuliskan buku ini. Jadi kita sebagai pembaca juga bisa mendapat banyak referensi lain setelah membaca buku ini. Jika kamu ingin mulai perubahan ke arah yang lebih baik, namun bingung harus mulai dari mana, aku rasa buku ini cocok untukmu. Membahas perubahan yang bisa diterapkan dalam jangka panjang di seluruh lini kehidupan, sepertinya menarik, bukan?

I really enjoyed this book. It was easy to listen to, I loved the real world examples that were referenced, and he made setting habits sounds easy. This just start with one thing for one or two minutes. Highly recommend!

“Small habits don’t add up. They compound.” I agree that nothing in life ever changes drastically. And this book has successfully encouraged me more towards becoming a strong believer (and hopefully a committed practitioner) of the idea. We might see change occurs within a certain period of time, meanwhile, the process into changing itself takes longer time than the actual “changing period” The book explains a lot about some really good approaches on how to be consistent so that the process of making a habit is not goal-oriented. It is a never-ending cycle.

When you have repeated a story to yourself for years, it is easy to slide into these mental grooves and accept them as a fact.

We all deal with setbacks—but in the long run, the quality of our lives often depends on the quality of our habits. With the same habits, you’ll end up with the same results. But with better habits, anything is possible.

A habit is a routine or behavior that is performed regularly—and, in many cases, automatically.

"When scientists analyze people who appear to have tremendous self-control, it turns out those individuals aren’t all that different from those who are struggling. Instead, ‘disciplined' people are better at structuring their lives in a way that does not require heroic willpower and self-control."

„Imagine two people resisting a cigarette. When offered a smoke, the first person says, “No thanks. I’m trying to quit.” It sounds like a reasonable response, but this person still believes they are a smoker who is trying to be something else. They are hoping their behavior will change while carrying around the same beliefs.

The second person declines by saying, “No thanks. I’m not a smoker.” It’s a small difference, but this statement signals a shift in identity.“

if you can get 1 percent better each day for one year, you'll end up thirty-seven times better by the time youre done. Conversely, if you get 1 percent worse each day for one year, you'll decline nearly down to zero. What Starts as a small win or minor setback accumulates into something much more

"Habits are a double edge sword. Bad habits can cut you down just as easily as good habits can build you up, which is why understanding the details is crucial. You need to know how habits with and how to design them to your liking, so you can avoid the dangerous half of the blade."

"That said, it doesn't matter how successful or unsuccessful you are right now. What matters is whether your habits are putting you on the path toward success. You should be fast more concerned with your current trajectory than with your current results.
