― Jossey-Bass, The Five Dysfunctions of a Team: A Leadership Fable

“Reducing the thinking required to take the next action increases the likelihood of the desired behavior occurring unconsciously.”
― Nir Eyal, Hooked: How to Build Habit-Forming Products

“There are people who drive luxury cars, but have only second- or third-rate sofas in their homes. I put little trust in such people.”
― Haruki Murakami, Hard-Boiled Wonderland and the End of the World
