This post will introduce the talk that we had by David Sora about the book Atomic Habits. The Gutenberg
library, now has a big learning space with more that 70 books.
Presenter
We had an amazing talk by our very own David Sora. He is one of the most driven and focused members of Critical Manufacturing. So it was no surprise to find he was an avid reader. He was challenged with presenting a book that made him be better. He choose one of the most requested books in the Gutenberg
library, Atomic Habits
.
Book - Atomic Habits
Walkthrough
David gave us a vivid account of the impact of the book on his own life and at the same time walking us step by step in the main concepts and ideas of the book. The major impact of small and incremental changes is a big eye opener. Everyone that is trying to build good habits and kick off bad habits should definitely grab this book.
The idea of compound interest and that a 1% improvement generates a 37x improvement after just one year, is a unbeatable argument to nay sayers. The contrast between the proof / identity methods is also a great brain poke to everyone that wants to understand the construction of the habit.
The big lifecycle of Cue -> Desire -> Reaction -> Reward
is very important to understand ourselves and our relation between what we do and why we do it.
It was not just a presentation we also had a big Give Away of four Atomic Habits
books and a big lunch!
This was an awesome way to kick-off the Gutenberg Library
. Stay tuned for more presentations.
