James Clear: What is an Atomic Habit?
The 4 Laws of Fundamental Change
My first book, Atomic Habits, offers a proven framework for getting 1 percent better every day. It’s the ultimate guide on how to design a system where good habits emerge naturally and unwanted habits fade away. ~ James Clear
An atomic habit is a little habit that is part of a larger system. Just as atoms are the building blocks of molecules, atomic habits are the building blocks of remarkable results.
1. Small habits make a big difference
Focus on getting 1% better every day.
2. Forget about setting goals. Focus on your system instead
Goals are about the results you want to achieve.
Systems are about the processes that lead to those results.
3. Build identity-based habits
Your identity emerges out of your habits. Every action is a vote for the type of person you wish to become.
Implementation Intention
I will [BEHAVIOUR] at [TIME] in [LOCATION]
People who make a specific plan for when and where they will perform a new habit are more likely to follow through.
What is Habit Stacking?
Habit stacking is a strategy you can use to pair a new habit with a current habit.
The Formula
After I [CURRENT HABIT], I will [NEW HABIT]
Design Your Environment
Make the cues of good habits obvious and visible. The key is to tie your desired behavior into something you already do each day
Use Temptation Bundling
Pair an action you want to do with an action you need to do
The Formula:
⓵ After I [CURRENT HABIT], I will [HABIT I NEED]
② After [HABIT I NEED], I will [HABIT I WANT]
Suggestions
Use the Two-Minute Rule
When you start a new habit, it should take less than two minutes to do.
Reduce Friction
Decrease the number of steps between you and your good habits.
Prime the Environment
Prepare your environment to make future actions easier.
Master the Decisive Moment
Optimize the small choices that deliver outsized impact.
Automate Your Habits
Invest in technology and one-time purchases that lock in future behavior. For example, enrol in an automatic savings plan
The 4th law of behavior change increases the odds that a behavior will be repeated next time.
We are more likely to repeat a behavior when the experience is satisfying.
Use Reinforcement
Give yourself an immediate reward when you complete your habit.
Make 'Doing Nothing' Enjoyable
When avoiding a bat habit, design a way to see the benefits.
Use a Habit Tracker
Keep track of your habit streak and don't break the chain.
Never Miss Twice
When you forget to do a habit, make sure you get back on track immediately.
