Brad Revell asked this question about Atomic Habits: An Easy & Proven Way to Build Good Habits & Break Bad Ones:

You have provided a lot of additional / bonus information when one purchases the book; which is great. Are there any tools / apps / systems online that you would recommend (i.e. align to your approach on habits)?

James Clear Great question. I hope you've enjoyed the bonus materials and templates. (For others who are interested, you can find details on how to get them at at…moreGreat question. I hope you've enjoyed the bonus materials and templates. (For others who are interested, you can find details on how to get them at atomichabits.com).

As far as other tools go...

Apps: I generally think the best behavior change apps are specific to the habit you are trying to build. For example, Headspace is great for meditation. Or StrongLifts is great for strength training. But you wouldn't use those apps for other habits like reading or writing.

Trackers: I like habit trackers. I don't think you need to measure every habit (more on that in Chapter 16 of Atomic Habits), but habit tracking can be really useful for the most important habits. The simplest version is just making an X on a calendar for each day you do a habit. But I also created a habit tracker template that is part of the Clear Habit Journal: https://www.baronfig.com/products/cle...

Tiny Habits Method: I reference BJ Fogg multiple times in the book and I really like his Tiny Habits Method. He has a great, practical approach for making habits small and easy to implement.

Habits Academy: And, of course, I have the Habits Academy, which is my premium training platform for individuals and organizations who want to build better habits. More at http://habitsacademy.com
