Introduction

According to research from Duke University, somewhere around 40 percent of the actions people perform every day arent due to decision making but habits.

Take a moment to reflect on what that means. Almost half of the things you do on a given day arent the result of conscious decisions but behaviors that you have repeated so many times they have become more or less automatic. You no longer think about them, you just do them.

Imagine what it would mean to you if you could find a way to change this 40 percent of actions so that you got them to work for you in every area of your life. What would it mean for your health? Your finances? Your relationships? Your personal growth?

This is why I absolutely love the topic of habits. Its also why I think understanding the mechanics of human behavior is a crucial skill in life. Because when we understand human behavior, it enables us to create our habits, which then create us. Almost every area of life reflects our daily habits:

• How in shape you are is a result of your habits.
• How productive you are is a result of your habits.
• How educated you are is a result of your habits.
• How much money you have is a result of your habits.
• How good your relationships are is a result of your habits.
• How happy you are is a result of your habits.

When we dont have a proper understanding of how habits work, we try to force our way to change by sheer will and usually end up at square one within a matter of months (or days). Whats worse, each time we fail, we lose a little bit more confidence and get more and more discouraged until learned helplessness sets in.

If youre at the point where new-year resolutions have become something you keep just for the sake of keeping resolutions, rather than actually going after them, you know exactly what I mean. And youre not alone. About 92 percent of people fail at their resolutions every year.

But that also means 8 percent actually follow through on their goals. And contrary to what you might expect, these people are no different from you. They dont possess superhuman levels of self-control and some innate drive that makes them unbeatable.

What separates the habitual achievers from the rest is simply a system theyve found to work for them that they use over and over again to create the change they want in all areas of life.

The only thing that stands between you and your most desired goals is really nothing more than a systematic, proven strategy you can use to make them a reality.

This book contains that strategy.

In the next couple of chapters, youll be guided through a series of scientifically proven techniques for creating habits. Everything will be laid out with very simple, step-by-step explanations and actions based on the latest and best research regarding behavior change.

Sound good? Lets do this thing!

How to Use This Book

There are two ways you can read this book: passively or actively. Passively means you consume the material, getting a bit of entertainment and learn some new stuff. Reading actively, on the other hand, means you engage with the material, think about how the strategies outlined relate to you, and most importantly, take action on what you learn.

This book contains all the strategies you need to establish new habits and create massive change in your life. But that will only happen if you actually put the tactics to use.

So dont confuse motion with action. Dont settle for just reading passively, nodding along as you go, thinking, yeah, I should probably do that. Ideas are worthless without execution. So make a commitment right now to experiment with what youre learning. Doing this will not be as comfortable as just reading, but it will make all the difference in how much value you get out of this book.
