Look closely at the pile of books in the image above and you will spot my all time favourite book on the topic of habits - how we develop them, how we can change them and what you can do to make new habits stick.

That book is Atomic Habits by James Clear. There is a storytelling approach to the narrative which brings the text to life and makes it relatable. Check out the video below to hear one of the stories that really landed with me. It illustrates the importance of tiny steps repeated often to successfully build new habits.

While I make no secret of my love for this work by James Clear, their are other texts that have unlocked and sharpened my understanding of different elements of the psychology of habit.
