About this listen
One afternoon - after another failed attempt to get motivated to exercise - I (accidentally) started my first mini habit. I initially committed to do one push-up, and it turned into a full workout. I was shocked. This "stupid idea" wasn't supposed to work. I was shocked again when my success with this strategy continued for months (and to this day). I had to consider that maybe I wasn't the problem in those 10 years of mediocre results. Maybe it was my prior strategies that were ineffective, despite being oft-repeated as "the way to change" in countless books and blogs.
I was right.
Is there a scientific explanation for this?
As I sought understanding, I found a plethora of scientific studies that had answers, with nobody to interpret them correctly. Based on the science - which you'll find peppered throughout Mini Habits - we've been doing it all wrong.
You can succeed without the guilt, intimidation, and repeated failure associated with such strategies as "getting motivated," New Year's Resolutions, or even "just doing it." In fact, you need to stop using those strategies if they aren't giving you great results. They don't work because they all require you to fight against your subconscious brain (a fight not easily won). It's only when you start playing by your brain's rules and taking your human limitations seriously--as mini habits show you how to do - that you can achieve lasting change.

Money - investing, personal finance, and business decisions - is typically taught as a math-based field, where data and formulas tell us exactly what to do. But in the real world people don’t make financial decisions on a spreadsheet. They make them at the dinner table, or in a meeting room, where personal history, your own unique view of the world, ego, pride, marketing, and odd incentives are scrambled together. In The Psychology of Money, award-winning author Morgan Housel shares 19 short stories exploring the strange ways people think about money.

Perfectionism is a naturally limiting mindset. For example, kids are taught to color inside the lines, and any color outside the lines is considered a mistake that must be corrected. Imperfectionism frees us to live outside the lines, where possibilities are infinite, mistakes are allowed, and self-judgment is minimal.

Your power to change one moment can create life-changing momentum. In The Magic of Momentum, international best-selling author Stephen Guise reveals how momentum works differently in our behavior and lives than it does in other areas. Behavioral momentum, however, is far more powerful than other forms of momentum. It’s not the “string of successes” we often perceive it to be. Behavioral momentum is layered and exponential because every action you take changes how your brain interprets that behavior.

Coexisting but conflicting needs create self-sabotaging behaviors. This is why we resist efforts to change, often until they feel completely futile. But by extracting crucial insight from our most damaging habits, building emotional intelligence by better understanding our brains and bodies, releasing past experiences at a cellular level, and learning to act as our highest potential future selves, we can step out of our own way and into our potential.

Most organizations and individuals work in the context of annual goals and plans; a 12-month execution cycle. Instead, The 12 Week Year avoids the pitfalls and low productivity of annualized thinking. This book redefines your "year" to be 12 weeks long. In 12 weeks, there just isn't enough time to get complacent, and urgency increases and intensifies. The 12 Week Year creates focus and clarity on what matters most and a sense of urgency to do it now. In the end more of the important stuff gets done and the impact on results is profound.

It was there that Sophia decided to start selling vintage clothes on eBay.

A lot of business books hold your hand, make you feel good, and are set to convince you that your passion and “unique” business idea are enough to plow through your competition, garner new leads, and make millions just because you can write a business plan that says so. This is not that kind of book. A 20-something hustler, rainmaker, and boot-strapper, Scott Gerber here shows you how to overcome today’s chronic conditions of mass unemployment, underemployment, and dead-end 9-to-5s.

Story
Your power to change one moment can create life-changing momentum. In The Magic of Momentum, international best-selling author Stephen Guise reveals how momentum works differently in our behavior and lives than it does in other areas. Behavioral momentum, however, is far more powerful than other forms of momentum. It’s not the “string of successes” we often perceive it to be. Behavioral momentum is layered and exponential because every action you take changes how your brain interprets that behavior.

Story
Transformation is a process we all will go through. It is sometimes long, and often painful. But the truth is, what we think is key during a time of change. A transformed life is preceded by a transformed mind. How we think about our journey may make the difference between 11 days or 40 years in the wilderness. Just ask the children of Israel. In this four-part series, Joyce uses examples from her own life, as well as some of life's ordinary, everyday tasks to offer hope and encouragement for your journey.

How often do you interrupt? How often do people interrupt you? Can you remember the last time someone listened to you all the way through your thinking? In her new book, Nancy Kline, best-selling author of Time to Think, makes this radical proposal: 'I won't interrupt you' is a promise that changes everything. It deepens relationships, spawns dignity, raises the intelligence of groups and enriches every conversation. It may, in fact, be the most important promise we ever make. And the hardest to keep.

stonishingly irrational ideas are spreading. Covid denial persists in the face of overwhelming evidence. Anti-vaxxers compromise public health. Conspiracy thinking hijacks minds and incites mob violence. Toxic partisanship is cleaving nations, and climate denial has pushed our planet to the brink. Meanwhile, American Nazis march openly in the streets, and Flat Earth theory is back. What the heck is going on? Why is all this happening, and why now? More important, what can we do about it?

Breaks Things Down Into Tiny Do-able Bits
This isn't a book that will wow you with facts and research and science. Instead, it is a book that makes huge and often overwhelming goals possible. The theory and method presented are based on the author's personal experiences of creating change in his own life. I agree with other reviewers -- there is something strangely liberating about the idea of setting your goals so low that you can easily meet them. Then from these tiny goals bigger change begins and builds. Worth a listen if you need a new and simple approach for attacking the problem of feeling bogged down and want to start building new daily habits. A positive listen.

Procrastination In A Whole New Light!
I enjoyed this book very much, including the narrator. And I asked myself this morning--after all the books I've read and listened to--why I was still procrastinating, checking off lists, putting lists into shorter lists, etc. etc. etc. Is it just me or does this book resonate with the very core of the problem, which is always the "getting started" part? This book is light (which I liked), but to the point. I began using it before I'd finished it, which was over two days. If you are someone who feels overwhelmed by the projects you want to do, I believe this book will help you. I'm sure I've never had a book get me moving so quickly and easily.

Surprised by how deeply helpful the thoughts in this book are
I started out listening to this book thinking that it sounded kind of gimmicky, but halfway through things clicked and I saw what he was talking about in my own life. I already, accidentally, have a whole lot of mini habits in process, some good and some bad. The further into the book I got the more powerful the concept became as I realized this dynamic is already existing in my life and he is showing me how to tap into that dynamic and leverage it for increased productivity.

Great information
This book gave me much needed information, although I didn't realize it, I have personally subscribed to this way of thinking for many years. Today I am a physician and I am constantly battling with my patients about changing their lifestyles for the sake of their health. Now I see why they resist and I will implement Mini Habits starting immediately! Thank you, and I will update this post as my practice and patients progress.

Very helpful- creating mini habits works!
I really enjoyed this book. Great idea to make a habit so small it would only take a minute to complete but it trains you to get IN THE HABIT (which is the hardest part). I have been doing my exercise mini habit for over a month now. I have over achieved it everyday except for 1 day. So much better than waiting for enough discipline for a full workout session.
Good concepts to remember:
-Break the habit down as small as possible and commit to do it everyday ex. One push-up
-Make it too small to fail to create the habit
-Don't do too many at once
-Track it and make it visible
Only drawback - it was a little long for the amount of content

This Is Incredible for Procrastination!
If you could sum up Mini Habits in three words, what would they be?
Useful, Insightful, and Essential.
Who was your favorite character and why?
There are no characters within this title.
Have you listened to any of Daniel Penz’s other performances before? How does this one compare?
I have not listened to any other works by this author.
Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?
Mostly of "Eureka" whenever something I didn't notice in my life was brought up.
Any additional comments?
This book teaches you how to feasibly do important tasks daily and also explains in detail why it works and the reasons other methods fail. As the title suggests, it is done by making the said goal in question so small that your ego won't let you fail and although it sounds like nothing the idea is that you are doing said action so consistently over time that it becomes a habit and thus easier to do without having to drag yourself to do it. The added bonus is that at times when you have the "I don't feel like it's" the goal is so underwhelming that it is too easy to not do it.
My problem is that when I wanted to do something every day I was making the mistake of setting my daily goal bigger than I thought it was and so it was incredibly hard to keep doing it every day consistently. Making the goal very small and following some of the extra advice this book offers have done wonders for my productivity. I wish I knew of this method many, many years ago!
This book is essential to anyone who has trouble reaching goals, procrastinating, keeping priorities, and even if you don't have those problems you should still give this book a listen.
