For those of us who are bothered by our habits here is a book for us.
We are creatures of habit. Habits can help and they can
hinder us. Habits can speed time or slow time.
Habits are the architecture of life. Studies have shown that
40 percent of our behavior is repeated daily and mostly in the same context. So
if we wish to change our life we should look at chancing our habits.
Rubin has written a book to help us use our habits to make
the best life possible for ourselves. Change habits and change life. This may
be the right book to have in your library to help you
Habits are able to help us be as near perfect as we can be.
It is not always easy to modify our habits. If it were everyone
would be doing it and there would be no reason for anyone to write a whole 295
page book. Everyone would follow a magic formula and all would be right with the
world.
To change we must first know a bit about ourselves. Humans
can’t be put in a compartment and mass produced. We are all in one way different
and in another way the same. We are all unique like everybody else.
Rubin suggests we all have temperaments that place us in one
of four types. The types are Upholders, Questioners, Obligers, and rebels. None
wrong, just the way you form habits. She presents twenty-one habit changing strategies
that can allow a person to put the new self knowledge gained by reading this
book.
Read this book and see if maybe you can master your habits
and change your life to something better than before.
That is Better Than Before by Gretchen Rubin. It is put out by Crown Publishers.
