This is such a well-researched read. Insights that will be sure to inspire. Charles Duhigg is an award winning reporter for the New York Times and author of Smarter Faster Better, a book about productivity which now I must also read.
Duhigg has helped me understand habits. Why they exist and how I can go about changing them. What’s more is that in understanding habits I not only get insight into my behaviours but also why others behave in certain way. This is good for leadership, influence, and business.
