"The Power of Habit" by Charles Duhigg
Have you wanted to improve yourself: lose 15 pounds, stop smoking, learn to juggle,
paint landscapes, or even travel to an exotic location you’ve always dreamed about?
Yet time has passed and you've not changed a thing. Why?
People are creatures of habit, perhaps more than we realize. This book explains the
science of habit from three perspectives: habits in individuals, in organizations,
and in society. Break out of your habit!
