ATOMIC HABIT BY SURENDAR THAKUR

1.         Why small habit makes a big difference.  It is easy to say to overestimate the importance of defining moment and underestimate the value of mailing small improvement on a daily basis called as Atomic Habit.

Too often, we convince ourselves that massive success requires massive action. Whether it is losing weight, building a business, writing a book, winning a championship, or achieving any other goal, we put pressure on ourselves to make some earth-shattering improvement that everyone will talk.

Meanwhile, improving by 1 % particularly notable sometimes it isn’t even noticeable. But it can be far more meaningful, especially in the long run. The difference a tiny improvement can make over time is astounding.

Habit is the compound interest of self-improvement. The same way that money multiples through compound interest, the effect of your habits multiply as you repeat them.

Slight changes in your daily habits can guide your life to a very different destination. Success is the product of daily habit, not once in a lifetime transformation.

That’s said it doesn’t matter how successful or unsuccessful you are path toward success. You should be far more concerned with your current trajectory than with your current results.

If you are a millionaire but you spend more than you earn each month, then you are on a bad trajectory. If your spending habits don’t change, it’s not going to end well.

Your outcomes are lagging measures of your habit. Your weight is a lagging measure of your eating habits.

atomic habit (HOW INVINCIBLE THINKING WORK BY SURENDAR THAKUR-2)

Your knowledge is a lagging measure of your learning habits. Your clutter is a lagging measure of your cleaning habits. You get what you repeat. Are you reading books and learning something’s new each day?

Tiny battles like these are the ones that will define your future self. Time magnifies the margin between success and failure.

It will multiply whatever you feed it. Good habits make time your ally. Bad habits make time your enemy. This is one of the core reasons why it is so hard to build habits that last.

Atomic Habit

Best outcomes take times to build in itself. People make a few small changes, fail to see a tangible result, and decide to stop. If you find yourself struggling to build a good habit or break a bad one, it is not because you have lost your ability to improve.

Whatever work have you done from your side in the past that’s all are not wasted in your life rather than it already stored inside you. All big things comes from small beginnings.

The seed of every habit is a single, tiny decision. But as that decision is repeated, a habit sprouts and grows stronger. Roots entrench themselves and branches grow.

The task of breaking a bad habit is like uprooting a powerful oak within us. And the task of building a good habit is like cultivating a delicate flower one day at a time.

In my life succeeded at a few, but failed at most of the time. That means failure is not called failed but its called learning from failure.

But what determines whether we stick with a habit long enough to survive the plateau of Latent Potential and break through to the other side. Forget about goals, focus on systems instead does on systematic works.

HOW INVINCIBLE THINKING WORK BY SURENDAR THAKUR-2

If you are coach, your goal might be to win a championship. Your systems are the way you recruit players, manage your assistant coaches, and conduct practice.

Goals are good for setting a direction, but systems are best for making progress. A handful of problems arise when you spend too much time thinking about your goals and not enough time designing your systems.

Winners and losers have the same goals. Goal setting suffers from a serious case of survivorship bias. If you summon the energy to tidy up, then you will have a clean room for now.

But if you maintain the same sloppy, pack rat habits that led to a messy room kiln the first place, soon your will be looking at a new thoughts.

We think we need to change our results, but the results are not the problem. What er really solve problems at the result level, you only solve them temporarily. In order to improve for good.

3.         If you are 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. Focusing on the overall system, rather than a single goal, is one of the core themes of this book.

It is also one of the deeper meaning behind the word atomic. By now, you have probably realized that an atomic habit refers to a tiny change, a marginal gain, a one per cent improvement improvement.

But atomic habit are not just any old habits, however small. They are little habits that are part of a larger system. Just as atoms are the building blocks of molecules, atomic habit are the building blocks of remarkable results.

Habit is like the atoms o our lives. Each one is fundamental unit that contributes to your overall improvement.

At first, these tiny routines seems insignificant, but soon they build on each other and fuel bigger wins that multiply to a degree that far outweighs the cost their initial investment.

If your do not rise to the level of your goals. You fall to the level of your systems.

4.         How Your Habit Shape Your Identity.    Why is it so easy to repeat bad habits and so hard to form good ones (atomic habit).

Few things can have a more powerful impact on your life than improving your daily habits. However, once your habits are established, they seem to stick around forever-especially the unwanted ones.

Changing our habits is challenging for two reasons first is we try to change the wrong things and second we try to change our habits in the wrong way.

5.         Putting this all together, you can see that habits are he path to changing your identity. The most practical way to change who you are to change what you do.

Write some page a writer. Each habit not only gets results but also teaches us something far important to trust on ourself.  Just start to believe that I can actually accomplish these things.

Every time we choose to perform bad habit which make our identities to be existed. Our habits shape our identity drive the loop rather than your results.

In 1898, a psychologist named Edward Thorndike conduct an experiment that would lay the foundation for our understanding of how habits form and the rules that guide our behavior.

Thorndike was interested in studying the behavior of animals, and he started by working with cats. From his studies, Thorndike describes the learning process by stating.

Behaviors followed by satisfying consequence tend to b repeated and those that produce unpleasant consequences are less likely to be repeated.

His work provides the perfect starting point for discussing how habits form in our own lives. It also provides answers to some fundamental question like what are habits. And why does the brain bother building them at all. 

A habit is a type of behavior that has been repeated enough times to become automatic. The process of habit formation begins with trial and error. Whenever, you encounter a new situation in life, your brain has to make a decision.

How do I respond to this? The first time you come across a problem, you are not sure how to solve. It like Thorndike’s cat, you are just trying things out to see what works. As a habit are created, level of activity in the brain decreases.

Habit formation is incredibly useful because the conscious mind is the bottleneck of the brain.  It can only pay attention to one problem at a time. 

As a result, your brain is always working to preserve your conscious attention for whatever task is most essential. Atomic Habit does not restrict freedom.

Hey create it. Your response also depends on your ability. Make the behavior difficult and you won’t be able to do it. And if the reward fails to satisfy your desire, then your will have no reason to do it again called as Atomic Habit.

Moral of story is that habit is that what you not, but it make you what want.
