Making Habits, Breaking Habits: Why We Do Things, Why We Don't, and How to Make Any Change Stick Audiobook

" It read like a truly scientific, reputable psychology book. That is to say, it's a little slow, and actionable takeaways are buried under test results. I was able to create a habit changing action plan that I'm confident in, but it required a lot of work on my part to get there. "

" I got halfway through before giving up. Your time will be much better spent reading The Power of Habit by Charles Duhigg. "

" I appreciate books that have some research to back up the author's theories. "

" No miracle cures here: habits are hard to break/begin, and it takes a conscious effort to change your behavior. "

" This book was fairly interesting, and had some good tips on how to change a bad habit or implement a good one. "

" I really liked the concept of this book, but I found it lacking. The writing style was not engaging for me, and I didn't feel the author took the subject as far as he could have. He stops short of showing how we can apply this research effectively. "

" Some parts were very good, but I couldn't help compare it to the Power of Habit and The Willpower Instinct, both of which tackled the same topic and which were better "

" Listened to this book on my drive to Moab. First half was super boring and obvious. Second half was very good with great tips on how to establish or change a habit. "

" As someone with a good handle on CBT this wasn't much new but good points that would have been just as effective in less words. I imagine for people that don't spend much time evaluating the things they do this would be a great book "

" Quite simply. The best book i have ever read. Applied properly this is a life changing book. Currently reading it for second time. "

" Reasonably well-written, though they needed a copy editor. The information was incrementally new, not earth-shattering. "
