My biggest gripe with this book is some of the examples selected. If you are someone who struggled with an ED or just are trying to avoid diet culture, you may find some of the examples provided quite triggering. There is some inherent fat-phobia underlying the author's perception of health related habits. There were many times I was shaking my head at his analysis or example about how to build healthy diet habits.

If I'm being honest, Clear doesn't say anything new or revolutionary. I already did many of the things he recommends. However, I think the value in this book is the compilation, identification and clasification of these common practices and ideas in key principles and strategies. This allows for a more comprehensive and conscious approach to habits.
Important trigger warning: Many examples are centered around dieting. This kinda sucked tbh.

The parts I found useful/interesting:
Systems > goals, and identity based goals > outcome based goals
Resetting and priming the room. Useful to keep in mind for trying to tackle my messiness.
The 2 minute rule OR, making the first step of the habit your goal rather than outcome. Something I already do with uni work - my goal is just to go to the library rather than write a certain amount.
And the "annual review" at the start of the year and an "integrity report" in June, basically just journalling and reflecting on yourself.

Trigger warning for those with eating disorder/disordered eating. Would not recommend.
