Atomic Habits by James Clear Book Summary
The #1 New York Times bestseller. Over 10 million copies sold!
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.

This book gave me a new way to look at habits and how powerful they can be in your life. There are many ways that this book can change your life if you put forth the effort. Truly inspiring!
Powerful book that goes beyond just a todo list to adjust your habits. Itâs inspiring and makes you think deeper about the person, leader and professional you aspire to be and how to reflect to make changes even if itâs just 1% at a time.
If you believe, that there is no much difference between mice and human beings, this book is for you. Human gullibility goes a long way :)
Thank you for taking me on this journey I will read this book again and again. Mitakpa!!!!
How delightfully helpful.
Highly recommend it for anyone looking to break a bad habit, find themselves stuck not knowing how to do that or move forward. Anyone looking to add a new habit to their life. This book will provide you with content in habit formation and destruction but also give you a step by step guide on how to implement and execute the changes in your life.
Definitely a book I will reread several times.
I read this book at my lowest point and it has helped me out tremendously. Just getting 1% better can start big changes
This book is easy to read and the ideas presented are easy to implement. The best part is that itâs a short book. Clear drew upon multiple sources to make this a concise and convincing book. Absolutely loved it.
Really good book you can learn from it.
This book really opened my eyes. Genuinely heard of things I hadn't even thought of.
Wow, what a powerfully moving book.
This author was able to explain habits in the most simple way possible. I love the examples as they are inspiring. Amazing book!
This is a must read if you are an adult who claims to be a lifelong learner. Approachable, understandable, relatable and very simple ideas to working on a better version of yourself.
Highly recommend reading!
Everyone should read this book. Iâm in my mid 20âs and this book has calmed my mind about approaching and building my future. It gave me a tool to help me reach my, once thought, impossible goals and stay motivated in the process.
Doing the 75 Hard challenge at the same time as I read this. It was almost like a perfect explanation of what I hope will change for me after Iâm done with the challenge.
I just finished. My life will change for the better.
Wish I would have read this book sooner, everyone heals and gets better at different times. I love the book so far and look forward to reading more! Take care of yourselves and never give up .
I found this book to be profound, well-written, super actionable and practical.
I really enjoyed the book. Overall, it helped me develop better habits. He backed up a lot of his information with research. Itâs all science pretty much to build better habits from what I understood and he breaks it down well and gives great examples.
Loved it
A family member of mine recommended this book to me and I could not be more appreciative that he did. The amount of insight in this read in endless and very easy to comprehend! I myself am not much of a reader. I have struggled and still do at times to get into the mindset of sitting down to read and relax. After diving into Atomic Habits this is one important aspect of life that I will continue to make one of my habits and its all because of the systems this book has helped me put in place. 10/10 would recommend to ANY reader out there!
As someone who has undiagnosed adhd đ I struggle with procrastination, non-commitment, impulsive behavior, perfectionism and the list goes on and on. This book not only helped me to understand my habits on an atomic level but gave me the confidence and the know-how to make effective changes in my life WITHOUT ALL THE PRESSURE! A 1% positive increase over time can compound into astronomical differences in your life. This is a habit âbibleâ!
This good shared many good tips on how to create small changes in order to make large impacts. The author shared many stories that made the book enjoyable and relatable. Many great lessons were shared, some points that Iâll probably never forget.

El autor demuestra, a través de historias y estudios, que pequeños håbitos pueden hacer la gran diferencia.
I truly love this book . So many good gems ! Thanks James clear
I thought this book had good ideas but was very slow and repetitive.
Best book ever
This book was recommended to me, and I really enjoyed it! Great book if you feel like you are in a rut in lifeâŠ
such a good book fr
Must read book
Would recommend to anyone!
Life changing stuff inside this book!! Buy it! And read it NOW! Thank me later!! Just Wow!
Really changed my perspective and understanding of habits ! Great Read !
I donât usually write reviews but this is most definitely tied with my favorite book about this topic.
This book helps you to get control over negative habits while accelerating positive habits.
Easy read with good stories but basically repeats itself through much of the book. Could have been 6 chapters

You can't argue with someone if the arguments that he gave you are well-founded. That is the case with this book. It makes it easy to understand why I had such a hard time changing and how I can solve that with a real strategy.
This book is too practice lacking theory ,statistics, good examples, or abstract concepts. Itâs not thought provoking. I also didnât experience any single ah ha moment while reading. I would would suggest that reading a summary is more than enough.
One of the greatest self improvement book Iâve read. Would 100% recommend to anyone.
Definitely worth reading if you are wanting to learn more about habits.
Simple and extraordinary at the same time
So many ppl recommended this book and now understand why . Basic yet effective concepts to navigate through life
Fantastic book with practical, easily-actionable changes that bring real results.
I knew the content of a lot of this book, but seeing it all written out so clearly was incredibly valuable.
The approach suggested in the book to develop good habits is feasible and fruitful. The examples used by author are truly inspiring. Itâs the book one can read multiple times while trying to get back on track in life.
An amazing book that will break down the science and motivation behind habits in a clear concise way
I love this book so much. I love how the author presents his ideas in clear and straightforward ways, this makes the ideas easy to understand and the concepts easy to apply and implement into ones life. I highly recommend.
Really forces you to reflect and improve your daily habits. This is one of those books that I think everybody should read once. An eye opener.
Great and enjoyable read
Great book, easy to understand and very practical. Highly recommend
Great book đ
As a professional sales person and coach it just helped open my eyes to how much there is to know about compound interest and change. Get up and start the habit.
By far one of the best books I have read in my life. I have learnt a ton from it, very intriguing and fascinating content, and extremely practical as well. Itâs the kind of book that I would recommend everyone to read it. Excellent book.
This book saved my life. Bold statement I know but when you start to understand how small little negative habits are eating away at your success, happiness, joy and love it becomes scary to think of what 5 or 10 years down the road looks like. I listened to this book in December of 2018. I only started to apply these tools in February of 2019. I was at my lowest at that point. I was 192lb, drinking at least 2 drinks a day and rarely exercising. I let my business falter and my marriage was heading down a terrible path. This book sparked me, but not only that gave me tangible tools to make the tiny micro changes I needed to do I could get back on track. It started with 5 push-ups and 5 sit-ups. We are almost a year later to the date and I have lost 20lbs. I have completed 75 Hard and am not only in the best shape of my life I feel like I am in elite shape comparatively. My business is thriving and I have had so many opportunities hit my plate in the last 2 months that I can barely keep up. I have fully prescribed to the notion of setting huge goals and then setting the smallest habits to get their. Thank you for writing this book and truly saving my life. I cannot express in words how different 2019 would be had I not read this book.

Very well written
Yep, another review saying it. But this book is truly life changing. A completely new way to think about discipline and progress.
Unearthed some principles I knew subconsciously, and gave me new strategies to work with.
Pretty good self-help book. Allows you to look at life by different stages and executing it precisely. Every step matters.
This was a wonderful read & helpful in creating habits that have brought much peace to my life.
Top 5 book!
There is great information in this book and definitely reminders of some subconscious activities we perform without assessing them. Check it out! 1%+
I finished this book in two days because it gives some much suggestion and right mindset on building habits. I find proper methods to start, undergo habits and sustain habits next time. The attitude for having habits taught me enjoy the process and reward for the habit I cultivate.
Fantastic book. So many great stories and references that could be applied and implemented immediately to see results. Between this and Outwitting the Devil, Iâve added 2 new books to my top 10 list.
For anyone who is looking to start creating changes in their life this is a great point of view .
It should definitely be this one. This is the most important book in all of self improvement, a must read and a must first read. Will be reading this over and over until itâs engraved in my head.
Me encanta la forma en que estĂĄ estructurado el libro. Ame las historĂas de Ă©xito , cuando hablaba de grandes personajes de la historia y como con hĂĄbitos lo han logrado. En algĂșn punto quizĂĄ me aburrĂ un poco , pero se puso interesante nuevamente. Lo leerĂa mas de una vez
Great book! Easy to read and valuable.
Such a great book! Will literally change your life! These are the books they should have us ready in high school!
This book gave me the chills when I finished my reading. It really helped me realize what bad habits I had and how to minimize them while also creating good habits along the way.
Absolutely loved this book so much! Canât express how grateful I am for this perspective and the tools I now have to become 1 percent better each day. I have already seen the compounding effect as I have applied the 4 Laws of Behavior Change and using the Habit Tracker! I will always recommend this amazing book to all and especially to those I love! Thank you James Clear, thank you for your work and this absolutely masterpiece.
I have always wanted to make changes in my life and I have started many good habits and unfortunately bad. But regardless of how great or how much a âhabitâ improved my life I could never stick with it. But after reading this book I finally understand how the process of life and self improvement looks. Over the last 2 weeks reading this book, my life has begun to change dramatically and for the good. This time around however, I no longer strive for a certain goal or outcome for every habit. Instead I focus on the overall goal and the small steps or small improvements that I am making by showing up and being consistent. Thank you James Clear for not only the research that went into this book but sharing the wonderful knowledge of atomic habits.
High impact through small changes.
Deep insight on both developing good habits and removing bad ones. I even started exercising some methods into my daily routine and already have noticeable change. Great find! Will have to read again and take notes this time.
This book genuinely made me look at life differently. It helped me change my environment for the better and set myself up for success. If you put the information in this book into practice, it WILL change you.
This is a great book. There is just the right amount of redundancy that the critical points are well learned and remembered. Wish I had read this book earlier in my life! Great job!
This book helped many in so many ways from changing my mindset to knowing how to make change happen to feeling Encouraged about the future.
Iâm sure it can be inspirational to some
This book is incredible. It made me completely re-evaluate how I look at my behavior and does an amazing job of giving a new insight to how we go through our daily lives. A multitude of real life examples, readable charts, and helpful graphics complement this easy-to-read book and itâs become one of my favorites of all time. I canât recommend this book enough.
Iâve been wrestling with some personal habits and this book helped me to understand it isnât a fault in me, but my habit forming system. This book added several tools in my toolbox to help me work on some of my habits and help me shape my understanding about myself. Highly recommend it!
Minding blowing !!!!
This book really puts the value of building good habits into perspective, helps to make starting and keeping a habit easy. Learned a lot that has help me start good habits that iv been on only 20 sum days consistently and confident that it will continue. I recommend if you are looking to build good habits and break bad ones.
Great book!
It really broke some things down for me and made think about the habits that are so automatic for me. Already implementing some things and myself and my wife have noticed a change.
If you want to change your habits this give you a great insight on how to do so. We all struggle in our ways to change things, James walks your through step-by-step.
Information, or rather the effect of information, is highly dependent of oneâs emotional state, ie, if someone is in the appropriate emotional state to be ready to apply life altering changes, can be extremely gratifying. When I first picked up this book, mentally, I wasnât ready for its intended message. Consequently, I flipped through the first couple pages fairly passively acknowledging the message and considering it fairly obvious. I wasnât inspired. Certain life events occurred after starting this book which changed my emotional state and caused certain aspects of my perspective, unknowingly and organically, to shift and be open to exactly where this book seemed to be heading. Once this acknowledgment took place, I read this book voraciously. The light switch flipped on. Throughout the rest of the process of reading this book many âswitchesâ kept flipping. What was once common sense transitioned to re-applying what was known to a more effective structure suited for creating a sustainable change rather than momentary inspirational blips on a map. This book hit home and it has helped me develop a perspective I once dreamed of but didnât know how to hone. This started the first domino of a chain reaction which I feel better equipped to direct. Iâd love to thank this author. I am grateful for your product. Thank you.
so the book is amazing.. very practical and easy to follow. like most books there is a ton of examples or stories that support the point being made.. heâs not repeating himself.
Good book, easy to digest đđœ I would recommend to all ages
Iâve read The Compound Effect, The Slight Edge, and many other habit development books. This book takes it a step further and really illuminates human behavior in a whole new level. Very very glad I finally picked this up after hearing it recommended so many times.
Itâs a stepping stone of fixing your bad habits and creating new ones; and how to stick with the new habits without seeing them as a chore.
One of the simplest, yet eye-opening books Iâve ever read. If youâre into self-improvement this book is a must read. You will be surprised how profound some of the smallest changes to your environment and habits can radically change who you are over time. Thank you James for writing such an exceptional book, and helping so many learn how to sustainability refine and better themselves.
what a treasure!!
Very well explained & easy to follow. The summaries are nice to recap. Thank you for this wonderful book.
Very good book. I highly recommend it. This has change my life and how I see progress by creating habits that move me to the right direction. Habits that shape my identity.
This is the best book about building habits Iâve ever read. It provides both very solid theoretical framework and very actionable tips.
This is good for beginners on self development. Personally felt too simple and sounded like other books Iâve read.
I loved the high- level approach and the summaries of each section of âatomic habitsâ definite read and will re read again during those ârutsâ.
This book is awesome
