Atomic Habits: An Easy & Proven Way to Build Good Habits & Break Bad Ones by James Clear

5.0

“The only way to become excellent is to be endlessly fascinated by doing the same thing over and over. You have to fall in love with boredom”

I was reading this whilst I’m studying (& also in full time work), to give me a kick up the arse really!
It’s what we already know but it helps to read it and bring it to the forefront of your mind.

Going through this book before I went to bed, knowing I had to be up at 5am and hit revision. I was pumped!! I was in my bubble...phone off..social life relatively out (say yes at times because you need reward)...saying no no no (believe me this has caused disappointments, but the people who understand will stand by you so don’t worry about those that cause ruckus in your life!).
There are times in your life where a real focus is required and this book helped through that.

Focus on a system that works indefinitely...I now find myself waking up at 6am (maybe not 5am..work in progress) on autopilot with no alarms! It’s bliss! Implementation of this works for whatever you want it to!! It can be life changing.

Highly recommend for anyone who needs a kick up the back side to get their shit together
