Summary of the Power of Habit: Why We Do What We Do in Life and Business, by Charles Duhigg
Description:... ORIGINAL BOOK DESCRIPTIONThe Power of Habit is highlighting an important role of habits and their necessity in our lives. Some of these habits you are already aware of, such brushing our teeth, smoking, exercising, but did you know how exactly those habits are formed? This book is the result of a tremendous research consisting of academic studies and interviews with scientists and executives. Our choices of deliberately making every day some things are part of these habits that we continue doing even though we are not thinking of doing. After a while, we stop focusing on what we are doing, thus, we stop making a choice. This could only mean that our behavior becomes automatic, as a natural consequence of our mind. -ABOUT SAPIENS EDITORIALBooks are mentors. Books can guide what we do and our lives. Many of us love books while reading them and maybe they will echo with us a few weeks after but 2 years later we can't remember if we have read it or not. And that's a shame. We remember that at that time, the book meant a lot to us. Why is it that 2 years later we have forgotten everything? That's not good.This summary is taken from the most important themes of the original book.Most people don't like books. People just want to know what the book says they have to do. If you trust the source you don't need the arguments. So much of a book is arguing its points, but often you don't need the argument if you trust the source you can just get the point.This summary takes the effort to distill the blahs into themes for the people who are just not going to read the whole book. All this information is in the original book.
