Discover: How to add dozens of positive changes to your daily routine

Want to improve your life, but don't have enough time? Right now you could easily think of a dozen ways to instantly improve your life. Odds are, these ideas will only take a few minutes apiece to complete. The problem? You might feel like there's not enough time to do all of them. One solution can be found using the power of "habit stacking."

One Routine and Multiple Habits = Habit Stacking

We all know it's not easy to add dozens of new habits to your day. But what you might not realize is it's fairly easy to build a single new routine. The essence of habit stacking is to take a series of small changes (like eating a piece of fruit or sending a loving text message to your significant other) and build a ritual that you follow on a daily basis.

Habit stacking works because you eliminate the stress of trying to change too many things at once. Your goal is to simply focus on a single routine that only takes about 15 to 30 minutes to complete. Within this routine is a series of actions (or small changes). All you have to do is to create a checklist and follow it every single day. That's the essence of habit stacking.

In the book Habit Stacking: 97 Small Life Changes That Take Five Minutes Or Less, you will discover 97 quick habits that can instantly improve your life. Plus you'll discover how to create a simple routine (managed by a checklist) that you repeat on a daily basis. Even better, you'll discover a few tools that will keep you motivated and consistent. So even if you're completely stressed out, you'll still find the time and energy to complete these actions on a consistent basis.

By completing dozens of small habits on a daily basis, you'll be able to make giant leaps forward in your business, strengthen your personal relationships, stay on top of your finances, get organized and improve your health.

Book was short and to the point.

Would have liked a little more on the psychology and tips for implementing a habit. Book felt a bit rushed together. But for a short book, i did pull some gems from it. the whole stacking concept trends to solve some of the issues around habit triggers.

Not great

Narration was great. The habits, not so much. I understand these are small changes, but most of them were almost useless. I know, you pick those to inflate your number of 'habits' but most of them wouldn't really be improvements, some are actually really bad ideas like checking facebook, pintrest, etc... I was especially disappointed with the financial habits.

Short, efficient, a quick read.

I enjoyed this book. As the author states there is nothing revolutionary in his concept just the way that it's put together, formulated, and how it's implemented. It's definitely worth reviewing in adding to your life.
