2020 y’all. It’s already one for the history books. I hope you and your loved ones are well. I hope you’re staying home if you can. I hope you’re reading a lot.
I’ve been reading a lot! But I’ve been remiss in posting. And one of my “20 in 2020” goals is to blog every book I read this year.
I’m on book 13 right now, and not one post blogged! Guess I better get on it. Pitter patter, as they say on Letterkenny.
There’s an author interview coming soon, too.
Atomic Habits by James Clear
There were some changes I wanted to make in my life a few months ago, and I needed help getting motivated to do them. I forget exactly how I came across Atomic Habits, but I used an Audible credit and downloaded the book.
It’s an easy listen, only a few hours, but I found it worthwhile. Some of the advice Clear gives is things we have all heard before, but his strategies for making habits stick were game-changers for me. I found them practical and easy to use.
I’m using them today, in fact, and have been every day since I finished the book. Despite life being upended in its current chaos.
If there’s something you’d like to change in your own life, I recommend Atomic Habits. The audiobook was great, the narration straightforward and easy to listen to. But I think it’s worth buying or downloading a copy of the book as well, especially if you want to refer back to it. And you may very well want to do just that.
