I can never forget this quote! It brings in mind the concept of Identity based habit which is the rewarding type of habit. Focus of those little actions, be consistent with them, over time it's gonna culminate in a particular identity of you; basically you're now the kind of person that pulls off success by default.

Which actions contribute to a successful identity?

1. Make it obvious/clear/track your habits 2. Make it attractive/enjoyable/tweak ur env't 3. Make it easy/accessible/start slow 4. Make it satisfying/rewarding/motivating

" Winners and losers have the same goals.” ― James Clear, Atomic Habits

Atomic Habits and The Power of Habit are the most essential books to read of all time. Pure gold.

My new habit is as follows: Whenever I feel unmotivated and end up browsing KZread, watch a Thomas Frank video to get motivated again!

The sad thing is that ive read the atomic habits before however after i finished i failed to implement any of the methods id learned, just goes to show, knowledge and applied knowledge are two vastly different things.

I was reading James clear's blog for a long time even before Atomic Habit is published. So whenever the book becomes available I brought that book to support him. Now I am glad that this book becomes one of the best seller.

Hey Thomas, I just wanted to say, I really appreciate all your helpful videos. This is the first time in my life that I'm doing a reset sprint and trying to set my goals properly, organise my systems and you are the most helpful person out there for this. One day, I know I will achieve all of my dreams, and it'll be done sooner thanks to you.

"We first make our habits, and then our habits make us." - John Dryden

This book seriously changed my life forever! I truly encourage people to read the book. That book is so powerful.

I love that you gave more detailed examples of the principles mentioned in the book. It helps with my personal assessment and in solidifying what I have already started implementing.

I started reading the book a week ago and I'm loving it! It's so easy to read and so enjoyable. Thanks for the recommendation!

Even more detailed information is available in, Atomic Habits. 👍 Start with an incredibly small habit. Make it so easy you can't say no. Increase your habit in very small ways. As you build up, break habits into chunks. When you slip, get back on track quickly. Be patient.

Everyone who goes to the Olympics has a goal to win gold. The goals are the same for each competitor, yet the systems to achieve are different. That’s why only one wins the gold. I LOVE Atomic Habits!

I have read the book twice and will be uploading a review/summary as well. Your videos are concise, simple to understand, and humorous. Keep up the good work!

I loved reading this book a few months ago. Nothing earth shattering but a great reminder.

Thank you so much Mr.Thomas Frank for this two videos series. They will be really helpful for me.🙏

Easily one of the most impactful self-help books you can read. Well worth the 2-part video!

Atomic Habits is a game changer of a book. Has benefits on so many levels. Thanks for the summary.

This is such a great and practical book! I love how all the subjects in the book can be seen everywhere in your daily life. Btw good video Thomas!

A clear goal that is relevant to you and baby steps towards every day it will make sure that it is a habit in no time!

At 12:17 you read my mind!! And not only in this video but in all your videos you come up with the perfect examples! Keep up the great work, I love it.

Best timing for the video . Yesterday I added few new things to my daily routine.

That ending was the icing on the cake. Brillisnt video. Thank you very much.

One of my favourite books! Great recommendations, this book helped me get into a better system for making videos! 😊

Thanks to your advice, I've been spending 90 minutes each morning on learning Japanese this past week and hope to continue it. Thanks Thomas.

This is one of my favo books! So effective! The way you explain things are really clear and you are super confident about the subject that you are talking about, I just learned a lot, thanks! cheers from Brazil.

Our whole life is revolving around Instant gratification and dopamine addiction. We have created a good environment for bad habits.

“Make it attractive”, true !! I agree! If it’s not attractive we don’t be sticking to it! Loving all these tips

Amazing video as always! Thank you for creating and sharing it. My best wishes!

Thank you so much 🙏🏼 this is exactly what I was looking for

Loved that book. Thanks for the refresher!

This video is brought to you by... your car spinning out in the mud *ANDDDDD* vegetables. 10/10 would recommend.

Thanks for the refresher, it’s been a minute since I read that book.

It's so funny, I bought the book weeks ago but since I haven't properly read a book in years, I've barely read the first few pages...this video inspired me to start!

More Atomic Habits! Highly recommend this book, habits are a fundamental building block of our lives.

Thanks for the recommendation, this book is one of the best books on habits.

This is so motivating. I feel so pumped and ready to work after seeing this.

"you should be far more concerned with your current trajectory than with your current results".. where are you headed is what matters more than what you have right now! BEAUTIFUL!

4:02 That proud moment when you have an app before Thomas Frank recommends it😁 ... thank you so much for the video!

Thank you, Thomas!

Thank you for sharing this!

Such a solid book. Definitely my current favorite on habits.

“Every action you take is a vote for the type of person you wish to become.” I also like the meditation workbook called 30 Days to Reduce Stress by Harper Daniels. It seems to go well with this book.

I’ve been waiting for this video!

I love this book, thanks for the video and reminding me its core concepts! :)

agreed. atomic habits is probably one of the best books for building habits and maximize productivity

so used to being inspired to work by watching your videos, that as soon as I hear your voice I have an urge to make my programming homework

*BEST book about habits...hands down* 🙏

I used to read articles and haven't been doing that these past months. I think it's time for me to bring that back.

great book I just read through it and on my way to becoming a habit master!

Really needed this

Hey Thomas! Loved the whole content...I have a request, pls do a video on best books to read including your favourite ones!

Today I just finished the book. What astounded me was mentioning of Thomas Frank in it.

I'll have to check out that book. Great video 👌

One should prepare a SMART goal S: Specific M: Measurable A: Achievable R: Realistic T: Timebound

Atomic habits is a great book...I will surely recommend it anyone who want to be really productive in their life..

You're good, man. Thank you!

I kind of meditate on my walks to and from Uni - it’s quite nice and about 20 minutes. :) Sorting thoughts in the brain is important!

Atomic Habits is on my list for a very long time. It's time I read it

Love the guitar concept. I did the same thing with sailing worried so much about the up keep and OCD systems that didn't sail.

Man, your videos are so helpful.

you are very helpful for me thankyou thankyou for making this such amazing videos

This was a good video. I genuinely have such lofty goals esp when it comes to my health and for the past 3 weeks I’ve been eating fast food. I realize that I’m actually overwhelmed with information and execution. So from this video im just gonna commit to eating a healthy breakfast only everyday. And I will come back and update this comment

Your videos are awesome. Thank you!

Reading Atomic Habits is one of my Atomic Habits 😎

All on a sudden while reading the book my eyes r stuck on the word Thomas frank with his example of waking up early

Love it!!! ✨

Simple I see Thomas in a thumbnail and I click it.

Perfect video for using the lockdown here in Germany to build new habits that boost you after-lockdown life 🔥🙏

Those dudes who disliked realized how much they regret and tried to hit like but couldn't see through their tears. Everyone loved this video, Tom.

I saw both of the videos and this book seems like a good buy

I made it a goal to have at least half of my plate to be non-starchy vegetables at every meal. I keep a lot of canned and frozen vegetables in the house but I also pick up fresh ones that I know that I like. Having a rule that’s clearly defined with flexibility has helped a lot and it’s now automatic to eat a lot of vegetables every day! :-)

Hii Thomas! And everyone reading this. This is gonna be the last KZread video that I watch. I'm gonna go underground (remote) from all media. Thanks for such a great video(Series) ! Wish me luck for Deep Work

The metaphor of goku with the turtle shell got me. I will definitively check out this book!

The KZread channel Better Than Yesterday inspired me to read this book, and I regret nothing.

Well, I am about to finish the book (Audio Version). It is a really helpful book.

Congrats on 2 mil!

I have read the book and the best idea is that when I finish a habit I will do the next one like a chain this helped me alot

that is really the best habits book i see

Thank you 🙏

Great video and information!

hey Thomas....with you since 2015.. thanks man

That was a smoooooth promo transition.

I'm actually reading that right now, nice 😄

awesome vid 👊

Thomas very good video !, I read that book and is awesone, please I would like see in a video talking about stoicism.

1 - *make it obvious.* When, how and where do you do the habit? What PRECISELY should you do? Make the ambiguity go away and as clear as possible. The system you set up is more important than your goals. If you want to become fit (goal), you have to work out frequently (the system). 2 - *make it attractive.* Clean your desk, get a cup of tea and listen to music you enjoy with a work you don't enjoy so much. Bundle the boring stuff with the fun stuff. So " if i do X, i get to do Y. Not anytime else ". So doing the fun stuff at the end of the day, after earning them by being productive during the day, you can implement it. 3 - *make it easy.* So by putting your workout clothes in a place you can see, e.g. next to the door, you remind yourself to do that habit and they are within reach so it's not difficult to get going right away when you have an urge to do so. And start with baby steps. Don't start with 5 hours a day. Start with 5 minutes a day and work your way up. You should be far more concerned with the trajectory you're headed, not where you are now and how fast you are moving. 4 - *make it satisfying.* Similar to the bundling thing that was kind of a long term thing, make something so that you get satisfaction in the very short term. ( to battle the quick dopamine hit of social media for example. ) Especially in the beginning. E.g. right after you finish a 1km run, maybe listen to your favorite song or read a page of a fiction book you like so you get some reading time in too and it's double-ly good. Be careful though not to build bad habits through this. So if you were to reward yourself with junk food, that'd be counterproductive in the long run. By doing this overall, you'll get through the first steps of the compounding effect where it doesn't show itself yet and you don't know you are actually progressing. *But,* if you fail to do the habit you are trying to build, don't beat yourself up about it and try to cast a vote in the right direction next time so the majority of votes are on the side that you want to win. If you keep your trajectory at the direction you want to and not let it sway in another direction, that's a win in and of itself. **GOODLUCK KING 👑**

The idea of a Jedi Council is really cool. A later video delving deeper into this would be nice

Thank you

thanks, thomas! :D
