Atomic Habits: An Easy & Proven Way to Build Good Habits & Break Bad Ones by James Clear is a good, practical life book to read. Mr. Clear describes, using great storytelling, how to develop and incorporate small habits in your life to increase your potential. He gives solid advice that is simple to begin to adopt in your own life.

Building  a habit (When you want to change your behavior):

Application of Habit Formations:

  1. Make a list of current habits (Habit listing)
  2. Build on current habits with new habits (Habit stacking)
  3. Design environment - make cues for good habits obvious and bad habit cues invisible
  4. Automate habits

Other Points:

Standardization before  optimization 

Don't break the chain of habits - get back on track as quickly as possible.

To increase odds of success is to [choose] the right field of competition. [Play a game that favors your strengths]. If you can't find one, create one using your strengths.
