The greatest predictor of growth and happiness is actionable self-knowledge. Gretchen Rubin gives you the tools to not only understand yourself and others, but what to do with that knowledge. Insightful, practical, and crucial, The Four Tendencies will help you overcome the biggest impediments to your happiness and success.
Shawn Achor (Upholder), author of The Happiness Advantage and Before Happiness
Gretchen Rubin has discovered a new framework for understanding ourselves and other people. When we know our Tendency, we can manage ourselves more effectively and reach our goals fasterand we can help others to do that, as well. As a researcher who has studied habits, addiction, and change for twenty years, Im excited by the simplicity and power of The Four Tendencies as a tool for anyone seeking to make his or her life better. I am implementing this in my clinical programs to help people understand their Tendencies so they can change behaviors, such as stress and emotional eating.
Judson Brewer, MD, PhD (Questioner), author of The Craving Mind and associate professor in medicine and psychiatry at the University of Massachusetts Medical School
Gretchen Rubins groundbreaking Four Tendencies framework is a simple yet deeply-researched and powerful tool that helps us better recognize our own nature, harness its strengths, and counteract its weaknesses. With her trademark wit and insight, Gretchen gives us the tools to create the life we want, in a way thats right for us. The surprising thing? Once you know about these four types, you see them everywhere.
Susan David, PhD (Upholder), cofounder of the Institute of Coaching and author of Emotional Agility
If you want to change anything in your life, you need Gretchen Rubin. Her ideas are original, instinctive, and revolutionary. Whether you want to get fitter, work smarter, or be tidier, she shows you how to tweak your habits (almost) effortlessly. This Rebel sleeps better, deletes more email, is more than forty pounds lighter, and forever in her debt.

The Origin of the Four Tendencies How the Tendencies Weave Throughout Our Characters Why Its Helpful to Identify Our Own Tendency Why Its Helpful to Identify Others Tendencies
I didnt realize it at the time, but when I walked through the door of the Atlantic Grill restaurant one blustery winter afternoon, I was heading to one of the most significant conversations of my life.
As I bit into my cheeseburger and my friend picked at her salad, she made a comment that would occupy my mind for years. In an offhand way, she mentioned, I want to get myself in the habit of running, but I cant, and it really bothers me. Then she added, in a crucial observation, When I was on the high school track team, I never missed track practice, so why cant I go running now?
Why? I echoed.
Well, you know, its so hard to make time for ourselves.
Hmmm, I said.
We started talking about other things, but even after wed said good-bye, I couldnt stop thinking about our exchange. She was the same person shed been in high school, and she was aiming to do the same activity. Shed been able to go running in the past, but not now. Why? Was it her age, her motivation, her family situation, the location, team spirit, or something else?
She assumed that we all have trouble making time for ourselves. But actually I dont have any trouble making time for myself. How were she and I different from each other?
I would spend the next few years trying to answer these questions.
They say there are two kinds of people in the world: those who divide the world into two kinds of people, and those who dont.
