Dipanjan Das's Key Ideas from Atomic Habits
by James Clear

“Small habits don’t add up. They compound. It’s not just that they get you results—they multiply themselves as you layer them on top of each other.”

“You should be far more concerned with your current trajectory than with your current results.”

“Motivation is overrated; environment often matters more.”

“The greatest threat to success is not failure but boredom.”

“Your identity emerges out of your habits. Every action is a vote for the type of person you wish to become.”

“The problem is not a lack of goals, but a lack of clarity.”

“To make a habit stick, you need to make it obvious, attractive, easy, and satisfying.”

“A habit must be established before it can be improved.”

“Reduce friction. Decrease the number of steps between you and good habits.”

“Incentives can start a habit. Identity sustains a habit.”
