If you’re the type of person who makes New Year’s resolutions but has a hard time making them stick, then the first book you should read this year is Atomic Habits by James Clear. Clear’s writing is simple and straightforward. In the book, he teaches us an easy and proven way to build good habits and break bad ones.
I’ve read it once before, but I’m reading it again because honestly, the first time around I read it quickly without really implementing the lessons. So this time, I’m learning by doing. That means I’ll read the material, put it into practice, and share whatever I’m learning along the way.
If you want to read, practice, and learn together, here’s a reading schedule. We’ll read about fifty pages per week. The slow pace is intentional. It’ll give us time to digest the material, discuss it, and fully integrate the lessons into our daily life.
I hope you had a great holiday. Cheers to the New Year! And cheers to happier, healthier versions of both you and me in 2023!
