CHANGE YOUR HABITS, CHANGE YOUR IDENTITY
DISCOVER THE FEEDBACK BETWEEN THE TWO TO TRANSFORM YOUR LIFE
ABOUT THIS BOOK
Few things can have a greater influence on our existence than changing our habits and the daily behaviors that derive from them.
The problem is that it seems that once we have formed our most substantial habits, they remain immovable for the rest of our lives. This is because they are very difficult to modify, eliminate or incorporate.
This is how many of us end up doing the same thing over and over again, year after year, decade after decade, even if they are harmful behaviors or ones that stall our progress: we cannot stop eating junk food, leading a sedentary life, watching too much television, procrastinating, drinking, smoking and many other vices that seem insurmountable.
At the same time, we try to incorporate new and beneficial habits, such as exercising, cooking at home or doing a long-term project, but a few days later we give up, no matter how much effort or inspiration we have invested.
What is the key to quitting once and for all the harmful and adopting the healthy if our willpower is not enough?
The key is to adopt a change of perspective: we must realize that habits are important because they help us become the person we want to be. We literally are our habits, as they shape our very essence.
