  • I want to thank you for this comment. I saw your recommendation for Tiny Habits so I grabbed it from the library on a whim around October 20. Since then, I feel this book is life-changing!

    The smallest, easiest example was his tooth flossing idea. I normally had only flossed right before going to the dentist because I would forget about it, or not feel like doing it or whatever. Trying his little experiment, I’ve now flossed my teeth everyday without missing and it’s already become a non-issue with me. It seems little but it proves the concept strongly enough to me that I’ve started to embrace it in other ways to.

    Thank you, thank you, thank you random internet stranger.









  • For me, I tried reading it years ago and it felt slow like he was going into too much detail about things that didn’t matter, like the slope of the road or some such. After the movies came out and I enjoyed them, I decided to go back and give it another try. What finally made me stop was when I realized a scene he was describing that was dull and boring in the book was actually exciting and intense in the movie. I’m glad for the people who like it, but I’m glad I got to see the story in movie form instead.
