The featured book for this meeting is (again) the International Bestselling book* ‘Atomic Habits: An Easy and Proven Way to Build Good Habits and Break Bad Ones – by James Clear.

*New York Times, Wall Street Journal, USA Today, Amazon charts, Audible

We discussed this book just over a year ago, so why a second time? I’ll tell you why:

  • It’s STILL topping a number of bestseller lists.
  • The buzz around it in personal development circles is STILL alive and kicking.
  • Our group has evolved over time and we’re keen to dive into these insights again with a new crop of attendees πŸ₯°.

So tell your friends, tell your mum, tell your dog, and register for what is sure to be another great meetup!

This meeting will be facilitated by a full-time Life Coach (yours truly) and former university educator with over a decade of international experience in facilitating discussions across groups from various cultural backgrounds and beliefs. We value inclusivity and insist on respectful discussion. Wanna suss me out ahead of time to see if we’ll ‘gel’? Then feel free to have a snoop here ☺:

From the book jacket:
People think when you want to change your life, you need to think big. But world-renowned habits expert James Clear has discovered another way. He knows that real change comes from the compound effect of hundreds of small decisions – doing two push-ups a day, waking up five minutes earlier, or reading just one more page. He calls them atomic habits.

In this ground-breaking book, Clear reveals exactly how these miniscule changes can grow into such life-altering outcomes. He uncovers a handful of simple life hacks (the forgotten art of Habit Stacking, the unexpected power of the Two Minute Rule, or the trick to entering the Goldilocks Zone), and delves into cutting-edge psychology and neuroscience to explain why they matter. Along the way, he tells inspiring stories of Olympic gold medalists, leading CEOs, and distinguished scientists who have used the science of tiny habits to stay productive, motivated, and happy.

At this meetup, we will discuss some of the key principles around habit formation presented by the author as well as how we can incorporate some of the strategies into our own lives. This will be a guided conversation, but we encourage free-flowing conversation.

Looking forward to meeting everyone 😁
