Amazon CustomerAmazon Customer | AH5M24Z73ZHQGN77WA3JT3Q7TEBQ | NUWAVE, GRILL IS PRETTY GOOD SO FAR | https://www.amazon.com/gp/customer-reviews/R29PC1849EQ2PD/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_rvw_ttl?ie=UTF8&ASIN=B085LT31HP | Verified Purchase | 87 | Reviewed in the United States on February 17, 2021 | 5 | This is a pretty good little grilling cookerIt's easy to use and clean, and with a bunch of time and temperature settings you can easily air grill all kinds of meat and other foods, not like any stove or grillIt doesn't heat up the house or smoke up the place like a regular oven would and with the timer you just set it and it turns it's self off, so that's makes cooking easyWith that DCVIRUS in 19 our bodies do better with more protein foods is my thoughts so I got it to help lose weight by eating more good protein grilled meatsThe draw backs of the black unit is that it's too tall to fit under a counter and needs 3 inches of room around it so, I took the electric burners out of 2 spots on the stove and put it there, but you might need a separate table or other to put it on, or think about getting the other silver nuwave model that looks like it would fit on a counter but under the cabinets.6 muffin pan fits good and are easy to make and cook so yummy muffins and biscuitsIt cooks didn't than a stove so for recipes that call for 400 degrees you probably need to turn it down to 360 degrees and for less time.I am pretty happy with it so far as I had the first round nuwave cooker for years, but didn't like cleaning it and this unit seams to do a much better job and a lot easier to use, and clean so I am using it every day.I put 3 to 5 eggs on a glass plate and put it in on 300 degrees for 10 minutes or so with some cheese on top and it turns out pretty good and I don't have to stand at the stove as it turns it's self off afterwardsHopefully it will hold up well like there earlier models that I have had for many years.When grilling meats I spray the meats with coconut oil spray first because I think it helps shear the food and the flavor stays in the meats better is my thoughtsI had it now for about a month and used it several times a day and it's fun and easy to use, and I bought it for better healthy foods, and post virus cooking needs | kitchen |
Wyeventer | AFI7ALURI5CPDT4V7CUXZXLNFDVA | Game changer | https://www.amazon.com/gp/customer-reviews/R1FL0IVHF0LG49/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_rvw_ttl?ie=UTF8&ASIN=B085LT31HP | Verified Purchase | 119 | Reviewed in the United States on January 28, 2021 | 5 | I wasn't sure I needed an air fryer but when my convection toaster oven finally died, I thought this might be a good replacement. I'm so glad I took the leap! I use this more than any other appliance (outside of the coffee maker!). The first thing I tried was toast. LOL But I ended to know if it was going to do the job of my dead toaster. Some users have complained that it doesn't toast well. It does great, just not in the traditional way. I pre-heat it for a few minutes while cutting my bread and then put it on sear. After a few minutes, flip the bread! Now you will get a nice toasting on both sides.Next up, rotisserie chicken. This is a total game changer. It could not be easier. The hardest part is finding a small chicken (no more than 4 pounds). But wow is this delicious and it does not take long!We use the rotisserie basket to do our fries as then you don't have to shake and rearrange them to get them crispy.The pre-programmed functions are super helpful and take the guesswork out of converting a recipe. I use the programs for sausage, brats, bacon, and various veggies (we sous vide so I do not use the grill feature).Oh yes - bacon. So quick and easy! I do line the bottom tray with foil just to make clean up a bit easier but I will never do bacon any other way.On the note of cleanup - I agree with other reviews, clean it ASAP! I find it much easier to keep everything clean if I do so as soon as the unit cools off. I will generally toss the mesh trays in a sink of hot water and then use a kitchen brush to get any baked on stuff off. Only then do they go in the dishwasher. Same with the bottom tray. Make sure to remove and stuck on food prior to putting in the dishwasher. Use a clean rag to wipe down the inside (important so you don't get buildup). One of my favorite things about cleanup on this unit is that the door comes off easily. Yes, others complain about this but once you see how it operates and you know how to open and close it properly, the fact that you can take it off to clean far outweighs the issue of it being easy to come off. No more crumbs caught in the crack! And as an added bonus, the glass can be removed as well if necessary (I have not had to do so yet).This is a fairly large unit so take measurements. that's the only real "con" I can think of! | kitchen |
A | AENH6LSB6BM7XLPEYUL43WBOD6JA | More Than Meets My Needs | https://www.amazon.com/gp/customer-reviews/R2VFK3BHMVUB18/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_rvw_ttl?ie=UTF8&ASIN=B085LT31HP | Verified Purchase | 87 | Reviewed in the United States on February 23, 2022 | 4 | My Needs:Smallish footprint.No burns.Even cooking.Versatility.Intuitive operation or a good manual.Durability.Shouldn't be too hard, right? I had an Emerson convection toaster oven that took great care of my family for almost exactly 15 years. When it died a week ago, I looked at the counter space and thought SCORE!Then we tried to live without a toaster oven.I have a Samsung smart range that I would marry if not for my husband's objections. It does a lot and has a lot of perfectly calibrated presets. But it's a big machine that uses gas and electricity and takes a while to heat up and that's a lot to reheat a slice or a sandwich. And, even though it's a lot better insulated than the oven it replaces, it does heat the kitchen in the summer.And wouldn't you know it? Right after the toaster oven died, we had need to heat a sandwich. The dead toaster oven was oppressing us.It's a first world problem and we are first world people, but we are not made of money, and it was Presidents Day. So we bought this thing.It stays cool enough to be able to put your hand on it while it airfries. My actual air fryer will scorch you if you try laying hands on it. You can touch the sides, the top, the door, the handle. Warm? Yes. Do you harm? No.The footprint is smaller than my old one. It's small enough that I can pull it out to the end of the counter and not have it under my cabinets while it cooks.So far, it cooks perfectly evenly. Tater tots come out looking like little brown shirts or army tots, completely conforming, each to the others. The probe seems accurate.Accessories were easy to set up, but the oven operation is a bit opaque on the panel. Luckily, the manual works. It's an alleged air fryer? But there's no preset for that (you can make one if you're into operator's manual deep dives).And it's very versatile - bread proof/yogurt temp all the way up to air fry. I just lost the need for three different appliances.Hope this thing lasts. I kind of love it. | kitchen |
Aylene W. Barr | AHFAAT5CJ6IIGIURHFBICP44ZHVA | Great machine and incredible customer support! | https://www.amazon.com/gp/customer-reviews/R2TUCZK4Z3FHJK/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_rvw_ttl?ie=UTF8&ASIN=B085LT31HP | Verified Purchase | One | Reviewed in the United States on December 27, 2024 | 5 | My family is following a low carb diet and we have essentially six adults living together (MIL and adult children still here while going to college etc) so there is food being cooked at all hours of the day. This machine is used at least twice a day, sometimes five or six times a day. Crisy bacon is easy, frozen patties cooked to done and great for chicken nuggets too.We were very unhappy when I started getting an error message when preheating and worried that it might be dangerous. I looked up the online customer manual and found the error message listed there. I followed the directions and emailed customer service for help. I received a response on the same day and they sent me a replacement unit free of charge that I got in less than a week. The box includes a return shipping sticker (prepaid) to send back the defective unit. That is customer service!The new unit works great and we are back in business! | kitchen |

I almost NEVER write Product reviews, but this Air Fryer absolutely blew me away (pun intended).First things first, the sound. One of the things that made me want to spend a bit more on an Air fryer than I did initially (this is my second fryer in the past few years) is the noise. My first Air fryer (about $70) was LOUD and it got annoying as I work in the room next to it. This thing comparatively makes almost no noise.Next, my favorite feature, Rotisserie. I never thought I needed this feature until I tried it. It does a REALLY good job. I am able to rotisserie two chicken breasts at the same time quite comfortably using the included basket. The chicken comes out after about 18 minutes hot, crispy and juicy!I have also done a fair amount of "bulk cooking" making an entire dinner across 3 racks for a family of 5 fairly comfortably.I haven't used the included probe yet, but having the ability to cook to temperature is exciting.Finally, the most hidden gem feature is easily the glass front and light. I can watch my food cook! Very often I am cooking something I haven't air fried before, so I don't know exactly how long I would need, and being able to watch it cook and make decisions based on what I am seeing is a game changer! | kitchen |

As a mom of toddler, this is very helpful tool so that I get notification while my phone is inside stroller or diaper bag and chasing my child in the park. I also love the GPS and emergency notification that I can share with my family. I have started to work out little more and care for health as it encourage to stand up, track movement etc which is very helpful. I’m impressed with the battery life and how fast it charges too! I’ve been using iPhone since it came out and MacBook but Apple Watch was something I didn’t think I needed. It’s not something you need, but it is well worth investing to make your life easier.

It’s my first smart watch, so I decided to start with the SE and if I wanted to upgrade to the Series 9/10 I could later. But this little watch does everything I need it to. I don’t work out a lot, but I enjoy using it when I dance and go on walks. I like that you can text or answer calls quickly when you’re away from your phone. I have a very hands-on job, but the screen looks good, some scratches if you look reallly hard, but no large cracks. I also really like the starlight color, it’s a nice warmer silver that matches more of my outfits/jewelry. Vernal, very happy with it. | Electronics |

As a graduate student pursuing a master's in computer science at the University of Florida and a research assistant at the Learn Dialogue Lab, I needed a smartwatch that could seamlessly integrate into my active lifestyle, help me stay on top of my health, and even assist in my research tasks. The Apple Watch SE has exceeded my expectations in all these aspects.One of the standout features for me is the fitness and sleep tracking capabilities. With my busy schedule, it's crucial to keep tabs on my physical activity and sleep patterns. The Apple Watch SE does an excellent job of tracking my steps, calories burned, and even encourages me to move when I've been sitting for too long. The sleep tracking feature has been a revelation, providing insights into the quality of my sleep and helping me make adjustments for better rest.Being a tech enthusiast and someone deeply involved in the IT sector, I appreciate the crash detection and heart rate monitoring functions. Safety is paramount, and the watch's ability to detect a potential fall and initiate an emergency call is a reassuring feature, especially when I'm out traveling or in the middle of a research project. The heart rate monitor keeps me informed about my cardiovascular health during workouts and daily activities.As someone who loves teaching and mentoring, the Apple Watch SE also helps me manage my busy schedule. The calendar notifications and reminders keep me on track for meetings with my mentees and colleagues at the lab, which is essential for our collaborative projects, such as "Collaborative sports," "Amby: Language model for middle schoolers," and "Integrate AI."Moreover, the watch seamlessly integrates with my iPhone, allowing me to respond to messages, emails, and calls without taking out my phone, which is incredibly convenient during our frequent lab meetings and while I'm on the go.In conclusion, the Apple Watch SE (2nd Gen) has become an indispensable part of my daily life. Its fitness and health-tracking features, coupled with its integration into my professional and academic activities, make it a must-have for anyone in the IT sector aiming to be a leader in future IT solutions. Whether I'm teaching React JS or exploring new states in the USA, this smartwatch has proven to be a reliable companion. Highly recommended! | Electronics |

So I was in the market for a new smart watch.Finally broke down and bought this watch. Price for the SE was similar to the Fitbit.This is night and day!! If you’re on the fence about which one to choose, go with the Apple Watch!!The only downside is you have to charge it daily. You’ll get used to it. It’s fine, you’ll live.It’s beautiful, stylish but most of all you get all the features that mimics your phone. You’re not limited to the basics like you are with Fitbit. With the Apple Watch you can do it all so you get more bang for your buck. Don’t think on it. Just get this. It’s a no-brainer. Woot! | Electronics |

The wide choice of watch faces that show different information (or none at all if that's what you want) is nice to have.I had a Fitbit Charge 5 (which I opted not to replace when it died bc Fitbit seems to have reliability issues) & some of the features I loved about that watch were that it showed real-time info on your heart rate without having to click off to another screen, and it tracked SPO2 info, which this watch does not & you will have to buy a separate pulse oximeter. You will need to charge this watch every day, as opposed to every 4-5 days with a Fitbit. And the band that came with the watch kept popping off. I ended up buying a set of silicone watchbands from a third-party seller on Amazon that had a rectangular stud instead of a round one & that solved the popping-off problem.I'm still trying to figure out the Activity app on this watch bc i don't find it easy to follow & don't feel that it provides good real-time info on your activity levels, but maybe that's just bc I haven't figured it all out yet.It seems like this watch is really more for people who want the convenience of having a mini-iPhone on their wrist than for people who want to track their health and fitness. | Electronics |

This book is different from others in the way it covers an enormous amount of ground in the larger area of self-improvement while seamlessly tying all these ideas back into the central theme of habits.One of the core concepts in Atomic Habits is to focus on the small improvement. The impact a 1% improvement per day can make may appear negligible at first, but Clear makes a compelling argument that in the case of habits, thinking small produces the biggest results over time. "Habits are the compound interest of self-improvement," explains Clear.Over the months and years, the accumulated effect of small habitual daily behaviors is staggering. Early in the book we are also warned that this compounding works both ways, so we'd better make sure we're making it work in the positive direction, not for the negative.This is a concept I was introduced to years ago under a different name - Kaizen - the Japanese term for continuous incremental improvement. What's different and new in this book is how the concept is applied specifically to building habits.I found the information introduced in chapter two about behavior change at the identity level to be spot-on. You're also given a simple two-step process for changing your identity and this one idea alone is incredibly powerful.In chapter three, we are introduced to the habit loop - cue, craving, response, reward - and we learn how to build good habits in 4 simple steps and break bad habits in 4 simple steps.One of those steps to habit formation, which goes hand in hand with the 1% concept, is how to make it not only small, but easy. In the chapters that follow, this is exactly what you find out.Other ideas of great value that stood out included, habit stacking (the best way to form a new habit), habit tracking, habit shaping and how to design your environment - physical and social - for habit building success. You learn the truth about self-control, how to stop procrastinating and how to use implementation intentions, temptation bundling and motivational rituals. The book is simply packed with actionable ideas, tactics and strategies.Virtually every idea in the book is useful and resonated with me. While I may not agree that we should "forget about goals," I agree with one of Clear's core principles in the book - that we must develop systems for change. If we only focus on goals and don't develop systems and a focus on the process, we risk falling into a number of goal-related traps which ultimately lead to stagnation. With the right systems, we're rewarded with continuous improvement on a lifelong journey of success.Another difference between Atomic Habits and other books in this genre is that while it's based on science it doesn't bog you down with unnecessary details of the research. Clear's book is intensely practical, giving you a huge toolkit of organized and named strategies you can apply immediately to create and strengthen positive habits and stop the negative ones.The book is conversational, and includes many interesting stories, making it easy to read - and hard to put down (I read it cover to cover in one day).It's possible this might become your most highlighted personal improvement book because every page is so chocked full of memorable and quotable gems of advice. | Books and Stationary |

Today, February 15th, after applying James’s system for 100 days on a few tiny habits, I feel compelled to share updates with you because they have sincerely worked.I will divide the review into 5 parts. The first part is a summary of the book with short excerpts highlighted while taking notes. Next, I hope to share pieces of advice that have motivated me while building new habits. Following that, I will share how I implemented the first 3 habits throughout these months. Then, some thoughts to whom I would recommend reading the book. Last, there are 4 complementary readings.SUMMARY[Introduction] James starts by sharing personal strategies he implemented to recover from a serious accident in high school. That event forced him to improve the quality of his routine to get his life in order, coming to the conclusion that “we all deal with setbacks, but in the long run, the quality of our lives often depends on the quality of our habits. With the same habits, you will end up with the same results. But with better habits, anything is possible.”[Section I : The Fundamentals][Chapter 1] Here we learn the power of compounding effect: changes that seem small and unimportant at any given day will compound into remarkable results if we are willing to stick with them for months and years. James explains that “breakthrough moments are often the result of many previous actions, which build up the potential required to unleash a major change.” Comparing to habits, he shows that bamboo can barely be seen during the first couple of years while the roots grow underground before exploding for almost 100 feet into the air in a few weeks. From that perspective, we come to understand the best outcomes are generally delayed.[Chapter 2] Based on a 3-layer concentric circle behavior change model—divided into outcome change, process change, and identity change—James explains that we should pay attention to our inner identity by focusing on beliefs, assumptions, and values. “Many people begin the process of changing their habits by focusing on what they want to achieve. This leads us to outcome-based habits. The alternative is to build identity-based habits. With this approach, we start by focusing on who we wish to become.” The strongest changes, then, happen from inside out, starting from our identity, passing through the process, and ultimately changing the outcome.[Chapter 3] In this chapter we are introduced to a 4-step framework, which is composed of cue, craving, response, and reward. James calls it 'The 4 Laws of Behavior Change'. He then explains that we can think of each law as a lever that influences our behavior—when the levers are in the right positions, they create good habits effortless whereas when they are in the wrong position, it is nearly impossible. Through examples, he explains that “the cue triggers a craving, which motivates a response, which provides a reward, which satisfies the craving and, ultimately, becomes associated with the cue.” Together they create a habit loop that, when repeated many times, habits become automatic.[Section II : Make It Obvious][Chapter 4] A primer on how cues play a crucial role in predicting habit formation without consciously thinking about the outcomes. Once our habits become so common, the cues associated with them become essentially invisible because they are deeply encoded. If we want to create better habits, a good idea is to be aware of the cues. James finishes up by sharing a strategy called 'Habits Scorecard'—a simple exercise to become more aware of our behavior on a daily basis. We first write down a chronological list of our daily habits and, once we have a full list, we score each habit as an effective, ineffective, or neutral habit. Besides noticing what is actually going on, we can notice if certain behaviors help us become the type of person we wish to be.[Chapter 5] The cues that can trigger a habit come in a wide range of forms, and the 2 most common cues are time and location. When we make a specific plan for when and where we will perform a new habit, we are more likely to follow through. Stacking our habits by pairing a new habit with a current habit is a form to connect our behavior to our own advantage. An example when building a daily journaling habit would be: “after I pour my cup of coffee each morning, I will journal for 5 minutes.”[Chapter 6] This chapter shows how our environment plays a crucial role in defining habit behaviors. “Given that we are more dependent on vision than any other sense, it should come as no surprise that visual cues are the greatest catalyst of our behavior.” To build good habits, then, we should either make desirable cues obvious in our environment or build new habits in a new environment to avoid fighting against old ones.[Chapter 7] One of the most practical ways to break a bad habit is to reduce exposure to the cue that causes it. As James points out, “it is easier to avoid temptation than resist it.”[Section III : Make It Attractive][Chapter 8] James explains how the modern food industry has created products that are more attractive and addictive to consumers, and by doing so he shows that the more attractive an opportunity is, the more likely it is to become habit-forming. Every behavior that is highly habit-forming tends to be associated with higher levels of dopamine. It is the anticipation of a reward that motivates us to take action. “Temptation bundling is one way to make your habits more attractive. The strategy is to pair an action you want to do with an action you need to do.”[Chapter 9] “We tend to adopt habits that are praised and approved of by our culture because we have a strong desire to fit in and belong to the tribe.” That said, it is common to pick up habits and behaviors from our parents, peers, and colleagues. There is also a tremendous internal pressure to comply with the norms of the tribe. And, finally, we try to copy the behavior of successful people because we desire success ourselves. One of the best strategies to build better habits is to join a culture where the desired behavior is the normal behavior.[Chapter 10] To avoid unnecessary and detrimental cravings, we should highlight the benefits of avoiding a bad habit by making it seem unattractive. “Habits are unattractive when we associate them with negative feelings.”[Section IV : Make It Easy][Chapter 11] “All habits follow a similar trajectory from effortful practice to automatic behavior, a process known as automaticity. Automaticity is the ability to perform a behavior without thinking about each step, which occurs when the nonconscious mind takes over.” The key component is to pay close attention to the frequency we perform a habit, not much for how long we have been practicing it.[Chapter 12] Since every action requires a certain amount of energy, we are motivated to do what is easy. By contrast, the more energy required, the less likely it is to occur. “You don't actually want the habit itself. What you really want is the outcome the habit delivers. The greater the obstacle, the more friction there is between you and your desired end state.” That is why we should reduce the friction associated with our habits by creating a prosperous environment to make future actions easier.[Chapter 13] There are decisive moments that deliver an outsized impact every single day. As James puts, these decisive moments are a fork in the road, sending us in the direction of a productive path or an unproductive one. To avoid procrastination, the skill of 'Showing Up' says that we should start a new habit by taking baby steps, making it as easy as possible to take action. “A new habit should not feel like a challenge. The actions that follow can be challenging, but the first 2 minutes should be easy. What you want is a gateway habit that naturally leads you down a more productive path.” He calls it the 'Two-Minute Rule', meaning that new habits should take less than 2 minutes to do in the beginning. Once the habit is established we can improve and master the finer details.[Chapter 14] In order to keep bad habits away is to make them difficult in the first place. There are 2 interesting strategies to improve our future behavior. [1] Make good choices in advance before we can fall victim to temptation in the future. James gives a personal example by sharing that whenever he is looking to cut calories he will ask the waiter to split his meal and box half of it to go before the meal is served. If, however, he waits for the meal to be served and tries to eat just half, that would never happen. [2] Make onetime actions that can automate our future habits and deliver increasing returns over time such as buying a good water filter, unsubscribing from unwanted emails, moving to a friendlier neighborhood, buying a standing desk, or setting up automatic bill pay.[Section V : Make It Satisfying][Chapter 15] We should make sure to feel immediately satisfied after performing a new habit to increase the odds that the behavior will be repeated next time. “The human brain has evolved to prioritize immediate rewards over delayed rewards.” For that, we can add a little bit of immediate pleasure to the habits that pay off in the long-run.[Chapter 16] Here we learn how to measure our progress by tracking our habits. The immediate satisfaction it delivers—as mentioned earlier in Chapter 15—is one of the many benefits that standout. Besides that, James says, “when we get a signal that we are moving forward, we become more motivated to continue down that path.” The most basic format to track our habits is to get a calendar and mark an X each time we stick with our routine. One of the most important passages of the entire book is as follows: “If you miss one day, try to get back into it as quickly as possible. The first mistake is never the one that ruins you. It is the spiral of repeated mistakes that follows. Missing once is an accident. Missing twice is the start of a new habit. This is a distinguishing feature between winners and losers. Anyone can have a bad performance, a bad workout, or a bad day at work. But when successful people fail, they rebound quickly.”[Chapter 17] In order to prevent bad habits and/or eliminate unhealthy behaviors, James says that we could either add an instant cost to the action or make it painful. A habit contract is also another strategy to hold our accountability: “It is a verbal or written agreement in which you state your commitment to a particular habit and the punishment that will occur if you don't follow through. Then you find one to two people to act as your accountability partners and sign off on the contract with you.”[Section VI : Advanced Techniques][Chapter 18] We learn how to distinguish habits when genes may or may not influence our performance especially for competitive activities. “One of the best ways to ensure your habits remain satisfying over the long-run is to pick behaviors that align with your personality and skills.” James proposes us to set some time apart to explore new activities in the beginning, before shifting our focus to exploit them thoroughly.[Chapter 19] When we find the sweet spot of our ability we tend to learn best and fastest. The ‘Goldilocks Rule’ states that "humans experience peak motivation when working on tasks that are right on the edge of their current abilities. Not too hard. Not too easy. Just right.”[Chapter 20] One downside of certain habits, James explains, is that we may stop paying attention to the little details and errors. To counterbalance that we should review and reflect on the process over time to remain conscious of our own performance. Using a simple chart to convey his message, we learn that “the process of mastery requires that you progressively layer improvements on top of one another, each habit building upon the last until a new level of performance has been reached and a higher range of skills has been internalized.”PERSONAL THOUGHTSReading the book twice helped me take better notes and capture details. In the meantime, I thought about 3 simple strategies that could improve our adherence to new habits. Let me share these strategies here with you, and in the following section, I will describe how I managed to cultivate the first 3 new habits upon reading the book—following the system proposed by James together with these 3 strategies.[1] The first strategy is about determining a 'commitment time frame' to avoid excuses during this initial trial period. A 1-month time frame is a fair commitment, choosing to start on the first day of the month to practice it every single day for a full month. Just at the end of the period, I will take the time to reflect and evaluate the pros and cons.[2] The next one is to choose only 1 new habit each month. In doing so we become familiar with the practice intentionally while we develop a sense of purpose.[3] Last, during the first month of any new habit, I noticed that if I spend time exploring the details and the benefits, my motivation stays high. It doesn't only help us create better practices, but it is also inspiring to learn from others who have succeeded previously by adding the same habit into their lives. Podcasts, articles, videos, books, online courses, tutorials, and blog posts are all good sources.IMPLEMENTATION OF NEW HABITS[Nov 1, 2018] I had been wanting to journal on a daily basis for many years but that had never happened. Although I have carried a notebook with me for quite a while, it has never worked as a real journal—a daily routine, when we sit down and write personal thoughts, intentions, and reflections at around the same time. Instead, it has been mostly used to take notes during meetings, to write down ideas and thoughts, to express travel memories, and to doodle. Today, after 3+ months, I haven't looked back once, and still can't believe it took me that long to start this daily habit. During the first month, I read blog posts, watched videos, and even read a short and inexpensive book to foster my creativity.[Dec 1, 2018] I have been impressed by the physical capabilities we can develop through body movement. Although yoga has been a special part of my life since I was 18, I hadn't given proper attention to handstands. But now, after 2+ months practicing it every day, it is rewarding to see improvements on a weekly basis. Again, I definitely recommend watching videos and reading tutorials to find your favorite method. This is the perfect habit to stack at the end or in the middle of any physical movement practice you may enjoy.[Jan 1, 2019] By now we know the benefits of cold showers—ranging from healthier skin appearance all the way to a more resilient perspective of the world. I had previously taken cold showers for 3 months in 2017, but it was a “goal” mindset instead of a “habit” mindset. After that trial I set aside and, although I have kept taking cold showers once or twice a week since then, I wished cold showers was the default mode. Now, after 1+ month, I can't see myself taking warm showers. After all, it is about intention. Again, we can learn uncountable benefits of cold showers by reading success stories. One of my inspirations was Wim Hof. It isn't comfortable in the beginning of any chosen day, but after 3-4 minutes, both my breath and thoughts calm down.Putting them together, these 3 habits don't take more than 30 minutes of my day. While I spend about 10 minutes journaling and 10 more minutes practicing handstands, I save 5 minutes taking cold showers because I won't stay any longer than necessary.RECOMMENDATION[1] First, if you have watched videos, listened to podcasts, read articles and books on habit formation and, after all that, you feel satisfied, then, please, save your money and time.[2] However, if you are like me, that even after reading a few books on building habits and having successfully added good habits to your life, feel that there is still room for improvement, this book can be a terrific addition.[3] Last, if you haven't spent much time and energy discovering a good system to build lasting habits while breaking bad ones, please, read this book.COMPLEMENTARY READINGS[1] Game Changers, by Dave Asprey, exposed me to a wealth array of ideas/habits/tools that have helped me decide which new habit to build next. The book is divided into 46 laws.[2] Essentialism, by Greg McKeown, helped me focus on less but more important tasks, giving clarity to what matters most. This is especially interesting to break bad habits.[3] The Talent Code, by Daniel Coyle, brought more motivation when learning new skills based on the assumptions that we develop new talents through deep practices, finding our ignition identity, and having the right coach to guide us genuinely. I read it many years ago, then, a few years back, I read his following book called The Little Book of Talent—which is perhaps even more to the point.[4] The Systems View of Life, by Fritjof Capra, enlightened my perspectives on how nature and living beings are systematically integrated. It is a profound and slightly academic book that can complement Atomic Habits especially to tie together the 4-step framework into the feedback loop system.I sincerely hope you, too, have fun while building new habits.Take care,Haical | Books and Stationary |

It is filled with dozens of science-backed and actionable nuggets of wisdom. Do you want to improve any habits in your life? I heartily recommend Atomic Habits to you! We are all driven by our habits - many of which are unconscious. Below are 9 quotes and takeaways from this life-changing book:1. "Getting 1 percent better every day counts for a lot in the long-run." Atomic Habits explains why the little things you do every day matters. Your little habits matter. It may not seem like a big deal to skip a workout or to be kind, but it is a big deal. Imagine if you improved your habits by only 1% every day. You'd be dramatically a different person in a year. Then imagine if you let your habits decline by 1% every day. You'd be in a much worse spot in life overall a year from now. Your little habits - atomic habits - count for a lot in the long run. What little habits are you improving upon (or neglecting...) today?2. "You do not rise to the level of your goals. You fall to the level of your systems." This is such an important point in the book. Oftentimes we focus on goals in our life, while neglecting to focus on the systems that help us achieve goals. As an example, I had a friend who had the goal to complete a triathlon. He achieved this goal! And then he quit working out for the next year and got out of shape... He was so focused on achieving a goal that he neglected his underlying systems of being healthy. Goal achievement can actually set us back if we don't get set up sustainable systems. Get the systems right and then we'll indeed also achieve our goals. Systems > Goals.3. "Every action you take is a vote for the type of person you wish to become. No single instance will transform your beliefs, but as the votes build up, so does the evidence of your new identity." I love this quote from the book. Every action - every habit - you take casts a vote for the type of person you want to become. Do you want to be a more organized person? When you develop habits and systems that organize your life, you are casting votes for thinking of yourself as an organized person. You think to yourself, "hey, I'm an organized person." And then you reinforce that belief with your habits and actions - a virtuous cycle! The flip side of this can be true too. What if you often show up late to meetings? You're casting votes that may make you think "well, I'm just a person that is always late." An un-virtuous cycle. Be careful to make sure that your habits and ultimately your beliefs cast votes for the type of person you want to become and, indeed, who you truly are.4. "How long does it actually take to form a new habit? You just need to get your reps in." Atomic Habits answers the question of "how much time does it take to form a new habit" with a better answer of : X number of actions. Meaning, you may need to simply complete a new habit 100 times for it to stick, which could be done in 3 days or 3 weeks or 3 months, depending on the new habit. It is better to think of forming new habits in terms of consistently taking action, versus trying to stick to a habit for just X number of days. Get your reps in.5. "Reduce friction. Decrease the number of steps between you and your good habits." The inverse of this is also true - increase friction between you and your bad habits! I think about this a lot when it comes to eating healthy. I need to reduce friction by having healthy food in the house and healthy snacks at work. And I need to increase friction by not having candy in the house or in my office! Out of sight, out of mind. In sight, and I eat it. :) (which of course reminds me of the Dad joke I often tell my girls: "I'm on a seafood diet. I see food and I eat it...)6. "Use temptation bundling. Pair an action you want to do with an action you need to do." This is a powerful concept. I put this in practice by only "watching TV" when I'm on the treadmill. I am able to run at a 6 MPH pace and watch TV or videos on the iPad when I'm on a treadmill. So, I generally only watch sporting events or movies or 80s music videos on YouTube when I'm running on the treadmill. This approach actually allows me to run longer if I want to watch a full half of a game, for example. And 80s music videos will often give me the energy to run that extra mile. :) Think about a new habit you want to start and how you can bundle it with an action you're already taking. Stack them together - i.e. habit stacking.7. "Use a habit tracker. Keep track of your habit streak and 'don't break the chain.'" Atomic Habits does a nice job of explaining the importance of tracking your habits for success. What gets measured gets managed. One of my favorite habit trackers is a FitBit/Apple Watch, which tracks steps, heart rate, sleep, weight and can even track food intake/calories, if you input this data. My behavior definitely changes thanks to these habit trackers. Atomic Habits gives you additional habit tracker resources.8. "Never miss twice. When you forget to do a habit, make sure you get back on track immediately." We all will have days where we fall off the bandwagon and our habits go in reverse. Well, that's okay for one day. Don't let it happen twice. Get back on track as soon as possible. (And, yes, sometimes we miss a habit two days in row. Just don't let it become three days...)9. Author James Clear gets to the point quickly in Atomic Habits and with actionable advice. James has been blogging about habits, health, happiness, creativity and productivity since 2012. Check out a sampling of his writing at his website. James is also fun to follow on Twitter. Atomic Habits has 20 relatively short chapters that open with compelling stories and end with helpful chapter summaries. If you listen to books on Audible, I highly recommend the audio book as James reads this book very passionately. | Books and Stationary |

I began this exploration with a hint of skepticism and concluded with an undeniable realization of its potential. "Atomic Habits" is not just another self-help book; it's a guide, a mentor, and a blueprint that ignited my drive for growth in ways I never foresaw.While it's nearly impeccable in its approach, there are a few nuances that could resonate differently with readers. Eager to provide an objective viewpoint, I'll dive into my thorough experience with this book, offering an insider's perspective on its profound layers. This review is packed with my praises, yet it also touches on areas where the content could be slightly refined for broader appeal.🖥️📚 **Detailed Strategy Over Mere Concepts**: A refreshing twist in self-help literature: At first read, it's evident that "Atomic Habits" isn’t just about abstract concepts. Instead, it offers actionable strategies, a pivot from the norm that significantly influenced my approach to habit formation. Its emphasis on the power of compound growth resonates deeply, bridging the gap between mere knowledge and its practical application.💡🌙 **Micro Changes, Macro Impacts**: Illuminating the potential of the minuscule: One of the standout features of the book is its emphasis on small changes leading to profound impacts over time. This concept is relatable, especially for those who've faced the daunting task of overhauling their lifestyles overnight. It’s these minor tweaks, consistently applied, that can shape destiny, a theme consistently echoed throughout the book.📚🎒 **Science Meets Anecdote**: A Blend of Research and Real-Life Stories: James Clear masterfully intertwines scientific research with personal anecdotes, painting a comprehensive picture of habit formation. This duality provides both a theoretical foundation and relatable stories, enhancing the book's credibility and readability.🕶️🖐️ **Crisp Presentation Coupled with Engaging Narration**: A Treat for Avid Readers: The coherent structure and lucid style of "Atomic Habits" are commendable. But the true gem is its captivating narrative, which ensures readers are glued from start to finish. It feels less like a study of habits and more like an enlightening conversation with a trusted friend.🔋⏱️ **Sustained Motivation as the Central Theme**: The Powerhouse of Habitual Evolution: The recurring theme of maintaining motivation is a testament to the book's holistic approach. By focusing on systems over goals, it provides readers with a blueprint for long-term success, making transient motivation bursts a thing of the past.However, in the spirit of a well-rounded review, I'd like to touch upon a minor observation:⚖️🤔 **Overemphasis on Certain Concepts**: Repetition for Reinforcement, or Redundancy?: While the recurring themes reinforce the book's core concepts, there are instances where certain ideas felt slightly overemphasized. While some readers might find this repetition helpful, others might see it as a tad redundant.Considering everything, "Atomic Habits" overwhelmingly earns its 5-star rating 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟. Any minor repetitiveness pales in comparison to the goldmine of insights this book offers. The meticulous research, relatable anecdotes, and actionable strategies make it a must-read.To all individuals eager for personal growth and those on the fence about diving into the realm of habits, I wholeheartedly endorse "Atomic Habits". It promises transformative insights and practical tools to craft a better version of oneself. After all, don't we all seek a life of improvement, one habit at a time?I extend my deepest thanks to you for investing your time in this comprehensive review. I trust it aids in your decision-making journey, drawing you a step closer to finding your perfect self-improvement guide. To a future enriched with continuous growth, one habit at a time.

I have taught my children, my employees, my friends, the folks I go to church with, etc. about the main points from this book. I no longer focus on goals, I focus on building better habits and using habit stacking. I have habits that I'd tried to develop for decades to no avail that I now have been doing daily for 2-3 years using the psychology from this book. My all-or-nothing personality benefited greatly from implementing the idea of showing up for 2 minutes, making it so easy that it didn't make sense not to do it, and then the habit grows from there. I think James Clear does an amazing job explaining these concepts. I am a huge fan of this book, and I've gotten several other people to incorporate these concepts so they can change their lives for the better as well. I feel better about myself and no longer beat myself up come New Year's, because it's not about reevaluating myself at the start of each new year. Now it's a daily process to focus on habits and get a little better as I go. I use a habit tracker every single day without fail, and there are some habits that are non-negotiable that I complete no matter what is going on in my life. These concepts truly work! | Books and Stationary |

This book is a complete game-changer when it comes to understanding how habits work and how to create positive, lasting change in your life. James Clear breaks down the science of habit formation into simple, actionable steps that anyone can apply.What I love most about this book is how practical it is. Clear doesn’t just talk about the importance of habits or motivational theories; he gives you a clear, step-by-step approach to making real change. His "1% improvement" philosophy is so refreshing—it’s all about making small, incremental changes that, over time, lead to huge results. This approach feels more achievable and sustainable than the typical “all-or-nothing” advice we often hear.The book is packed with insightful strategies for building good habits (like habit stacking and the 2-minute rule) and breaking bad ones. Clear also dives into the psychology behind habits, showing how environment, identity, and consistency play crucial roles. I found the examples and case studies particularly helpful for understanding how to apply these ideas to different areas of life, whether it’s fitness, productivity, or personal growth.Since reading the book, I’ve implemented several of his strategies, and I’ve already noticed positive changes. I’ve been able to stick with new habits in a way I never could before.If you’re looking to make lasting changes in your life and break free from old, unproductive habits, this book is a must-read. It’s one of the best personal development books I’ve read in a long time and is now a go-to recommendation for anyone trying to improve their habits.Let me know if you find this helpful, I hope it is! I put a lot of effort and time writing these reviews so it would be greatly appreciated! | Books and Stationary |

By "showing up" every day, even if I just do a 2 minute version or 5 minute version, I have now formed habits that have lasted 2 years so far, and I think they are deeply embedded enough that they will last a lifetime.Some of my habits include morning bible study (habit stacked) but also taking a 15 minute walk during my mid-morning break (and if it's stormy outside I switch to squats, planks, lunges, etc.).I also habit stacked my whole morning: wake up>deep breathing>brushing teeth>grounding for 3 minutes>drinking 12 oz water>showering>skin care>bible study and prayer>dress and out the door by 6:00 am). I've never felt healthier or more at peace with myself and the world. I've also shared these ideas with my students to get them to make small changes for a big impact in their life trajectory. Some run with it, some ignore it, but at least the idea is planted in their brain. | Books and Stationary |

That’s how much value I found in this book.This review probably isn’t necessary given the book’s massive success, but I felt compelled to write it because of how much James Clear’s content continues to benefit me.

I am not, I repeat NOT, a self-help book type. I found this book so helpful, however, I proceeded to purchase my own copy so I could highlight passages, make notes in the margins and turn it into a life reference book. And then I purchased an audio version... Unlike the sappy pabulum found in many other self-helps, this book gave me solid NUGGETS that provoked deep reflection into areas that prompted true personal growth. PLUS, it helped me create one-sentence prompts that I could burn into mind and pull up when immediate motivation was needed. For instance when I feel lazy, I ask myself, "What would a healthy person do?" I lean into his concept of identity-based habits rather than outcome based habits. I routinely revisit Atomic Habits. More than any program, or personality, this way of embracing change has impacted numerous areas of my life. Thank you! | Books and Stationary |

I was already familiar with Clear because I’ve read many of his articles and I subscribe to his newsletter.You will be familiar with much of the material in this book, because there are so many self-help resources out there and on the internet, but it’s nice to have it all collected in one place. Also, Clear helps you analyze what you want to improve in your own life and gives you helpful strategies to do that. He identifies four laws to help you form good habits, and points out that to break bad habits you need to invert the four laws.Here are some sentences from the book that I underlined:Be far more concerned with your current trajectory than with your current results.You get what you repeat.In order to make a meaningful difference, habits need to persist long enough to break through the plateau of latent potential.Becoming the best version of yourself requires you to continually edit your beliefs, and to upgrade and expand your identity.Desire is the engine that drives behavior. Every action is taken because of the anticipation that precedes it.When changing your habits means challenging the tribe, change is unattractive. When changing your habits means fitting in with the tribe, change is very attractive.The most effective form of learning is practice, not planning.The amount of time you have been performing a habit is not as important as the number of times you have performed it.Direct your effort toward areas that both excite you and match your natural skills, to align your ambition with your ability.When you can’t win by being better, you can win by being different. By combining your skills, you reduce the level of competition, which makes it easier to stand out.Reflection and review enables the long-term improvement of all habits because it makes you aware of your mistakes and helps you consider possible paths for improvement.Each of the 20 chapters includes anecdotal illustrations and a summary at the end.Atomic Habits is a book that I will be rereading regularly. | Books and Stationary |

All in all, I felt like this was a great book and a good place to start if you have your mind in the right space to start making some big changes in your life by beginning with some very small habits. *hugs 🙏🏾💜🦋 | Books and Stationary |

Chapters are reasonably short and scientific explanation of habit construction is very readable. There are some personal examples but mainly consists of explanation of how habits are built or broken, specifically "cue, craving, response and reward." There are good examples of what it takes to build a good habit (make it obvious, make it attractive, make it easy, make it satisfying) as well as how to break ourselves from bad habits by distancing us from the cues that spark these habits and building mental and physical barriers that make these habits invisible, unattractive, difficult and unsatisfying. This was a good read, and the concepts explained here will apply to multiple aspects of our lives. | Books and Stationary |

Andreas Aristidou | AHL4PUMBLEFOFIWCJH2ONF2T322A | Distilled and clear ideas made into a simple system of behavior change. Top notch! | https://www.amazon.com/gp/customer-reviews/R2XP2P7JPYMHH1/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_rvw_ttl?ie=UTF8&ASIN=0735211299 | Verified Purchase | 55 | Reviewed in the United States on April 26, 2020 | 5 | I began reading this book with very high expectations and it did not disappoint. I, myself, am a big believer of the power of habits and have done a lot of research on the topic. Yet I learned a lot, especially the clarity with which the author presents his ideas. Big parts of the book were, in some sense, confirmation that I was doing things the right way, since I was oftentimes thinking "oh yeah, that's similar to what I'm doing". Still, parts of the book and strategies proposed were new to me and really helped add habit strategies to my toolbox. As mentioned though, the best thing about this book is the clarity with which the ideas are presented and the way they blend together.This quote from the last chapter summarizes the "Four Laws of Behavior Change" (that the book is about) well: " (1) Sometimes a habit will be hard to remember and you'll need to make it obvious. (2) Other times you won't feel like starting and you'll need to make it attractive. (3) In many cases, you may find that a habit will be too difficult and you'll need to make it easy. (4) And sometimes, you won't feel like sticking with it and you'll need to make it satisfying."Here's some of the notes I made while reading the book:- Habits are like compound interest in self-improvement.- Outcomes are a lagging measure of habits.- The "Valley of Disappointment" is the period where you are putting in the hard work but still seeing no results. --> but remember, your work is not being wasted, it is being stored.- You do not rise to the level of your goals, you fall to the level of your systems.- Your habits shape your identity and your identity shapes your habit. It's a feedback loop. (reverse causation for the nerds here)- Make clear plans - Use the "Implementation Intention": When X happens, then I will do Y OR if Z happens, then I will do W.- Use "Habit Stacking": After behavior X, I will immediately perform behavior Y OR If Z happens, I will immediately perform behavior W. (i.e. As soon as I begin boiling water for tea, I will do 10 burpees). Also, be very clear. (i.e. I will do the burpees next to the fridge in the kitchen, or whatever, you get the idea. As long as it works, it's good!)- People with high self-control are the ones who structure their environments in such a way to minimize exposure to tempting situations.- Use "Temptation Bundling" + "Habit Stacking": After X, i will Y. Right after Y, I will immediately Z,where X - habit I already do, Y - habit I need to do, Z - habit I want to do. (The anticipation of a reward is what gives us the most motivation - and not the reward itself.)- Do something you enjoy before a difficult habit.- Planning can sometimes be a form of procrastination because it can make you feel like you are making progress (while you are not).- Make your habits as easy as possible to start (i.e. do one set of abs, read one page of my book) - This is called a "Gateway Habit". and it helps to reinforce your identity of who you are which will itself help motivate you to keep going.- Prime your environment for future use - "resetting your environment" (i.e. Take out your coffee and mug the night before, make your bed perfectly, to remove the sense of sleep / bedroom if you'll be working from your bedroom)- Use pre-commitment devices to make it harder/ impossible to deviate from good habits.- Even one minute of a bad habit (i.e. checking instagram) can manifest into a lot (i.e. getting lost in time browsing instagram).- Put some immediate reward into good habits / immediate punishment to bad habits.- Create a habit tracker / calendar to provide a sense of accomplishment and motivation.- Rule: Never miss a habit twice! (life gets in the way, but don't let it derail you off your path)- Finding what you are naturally gifted in will make good habits easier. To do that ask the following questions. (1) What feels like fun to me but work to others? (2) What makes me lose track of time? (3) Where do I get greater returns than the average person? (4) What comes naturally to me?- You can also win by being different, by rewriting the rules (i.e. by combining your unique set of skills)- Periodic reflection and review can enable the long-term improvement of all habits - identity building.Finally, some quotes I liked:- "Really successful people feel the same lack of motivation as everyone else. The difference is that they find a way to show up despite the feelings of boredom."- "The greatest threat to success is not failure, but boredom."- "You have to fall in love with boredom."- "Improvement is not just about learning habits, it's also about fine-tuning them."- "Success is not a goal to reach or a finish line to cross. It is a system to improve, an endless process to refine."And my favorite:- "It is remarkable what you can build if you just don't stop." | Books and Stationary |
