Image by Sajith Ron We all have found ourselves trapped in a cycle of unfulfilled ambitions at some point of our lives. Some escape this by building good habits while others take accountability and finally put the procrastination to a halt.Two years ago I found myself in these same circumstances, in a dark void where I was buried under the weight of academics and everyday life. While the covid-19 pandemic had passed, no one recovered from the hangover that had ruined the lives of many.Lost in failed resolutions about building good habits and working on myself, mentally and physically, I picked up my first non — fiction book ever.“It’s a waste of time”“Do not go down the self help path, it’s a scam”“Save your money and do not buy such a book”
These were some of the reviews I found online, and given how lost I felt in life, I thought another mistake wouldn’t hurt.
When I look back at that moment, I cannot thank myself enough to have made that purchase because Atomic Habits by James Clear changed my life.
