Tiny Changes, Remarkable Results
No matter your goals, Atomic Habits offers a proven framework for improving–every day. James Clear, one of the world’s leading experts 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.
If you’re having trouble changing your habits, the problem isn’t you. The problem is your system. Bad habits repeat themselves again and again not because you don’t want to change, but because you have the wrong system for change. You do not rise to the level of your goals. You fall to the level of your systems. Here, you’ll get a proven system that can take you to new heights.
Clear is known for his ability to distill complex topics into simple behaviors that can be easily applied to daily life and work. 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. Along the way, readers will be inspired and entertained with true stories from Olympic gold medalists, award-winning artists, business leaders, life-saving physicians, and star comedians who have used the science of small habits to master their craft and vault to the top of their field.
Learn how to:
- make time for new habits (even when life gets crazy);
- overcome a lack of motivation and willpower;
- design your environment to make success easier;
- get back on track when you fall off course;
…and much more.
Atomic Habits will reshape the way you think about progress and success, and give you the tools and strategies you need to transform your habits–whether you are a team looking to win a championship, an organization hoping to redefine an industry, or simply an individual who wishes to quit smoking, lose weight, reduce stress, or achieve any other goal.

What Audible Listeners Are Saying
5/5 stars — “Good Book but did not deliver on resources promise”
Lots of bonus stuff promised but could not access online. Not credible. So was disapointed.— Tim Ervin, Audible listener
5/5 stars — “Great book!”
One thing I dislike more than anything when it comes to self-help books is when the author writes 100+ pages about why you should become a better person but doesn’t give practical tools and methods for accomplishing it. The reason I gave this book 5 stars is because James Clear spends the MAJORITY of this book detailing tools and methods for achieving better habits and also maintaining them. He breaks down habit formation into four categories, goes into detail about what they mean, and offers practical steps to utilizing them to either destroy bad habits or reinforce good ones.
Basically, if you’re like me (someone who really wishes they could change their bad habits and replace them with good habits but has no idea where to start) you will love this book.
Is it a life-changer? I’m not sure yet because I just finished it 5 minutes ago. However, I will be using these strategies for the rest of my life.Edit:
I did myself a favor and read a few of the other reviews for this book (so glad I didn’t do that before reading as I probably would’ve missed out on it based on some negative opinions). If something as small as him mentioning his website is going to bother you or leave you dissatisfied then don’t read this book. In fact, don’t ever try to achieve anything ever again for the rest of your life. If something THAT small is going to put you off then there is no telling how many small things in your life are preventing you from improvement. Start with an open mind. Read this book, take notes, build a plan, implement that plan, and if that plan fails THEN only can you adequately criticize this book.— Melody du Biel, Audible listener
5/5 stars — “Pretty good “
The only thing that would make this audio book better would be to remove the dozens and dozens of website plugs that seem to jump out all the time. Other than that, the info and delivery was good. I will be listening to this book often and recommending it to others. Great work!— DTR, Audible listener
