Book summaries
Habit and behaviour-change book summaries
Individual habits are easy to admire and hard to install. Organisational habits are worse: a poster, a kick-off, then the old system wins.
These notes are about behaviour that lasts — Atomic Habits, Tiny Habits, Essentialism, and the books on attention and time. Use them if you are trying to change how people actually work, not what they say they value.
Also see Best habit books.
