Status Updates From Better Than Before: Masteri...

The chapter on loopholes is killing me. I am so good at finding loopholes. :(

this book is taking me so loooong

Echt wel boeiende materie, tot nu toe. De jury leest aangenaam verrast verder.

The moment when you burst out I am an opener! and your husband looks at you funny...

I'm definitely an Obliger.

I expected it to be better :(. Still fun to read tho and, I need to finish it first before judging the book.

Listening to this on Audible and it's great!

Looks like I am an obliger- ugh.

Excellent book so far - Highly recommended and terrific writing style full of experiences and stories as well as great content.

Very interesting so far.

This.Book.Is.Awesome.

The first chapter (not the intro) is AMAZING. I will be recommending this book to everyone - at least to read the first chapter. It's genius.

So far I like how Gretchen has throughtly researched most aspects of creating and quitting a habit

Love this quote-Habits make change possible by freeing us from decision making and from using self-control.

Self-righteousness galore. Sorry I'm a Moderator and you are SO CLEARLY disapproving of any lifestyle that doesn't conform to your rigid ideas of "right." I want to finish this book out of the sheer desire to be annoyed with this lady (I'm sure she has some kind of cutesy, insulting name for this kind of behavior, along with a pretentious quote to back it up).

"Adam, how would you like for me to suggest some habits for you?" "Remember, working is one of the most dangerous forms of procrastination. You want to use your time for writing only. NOTHING ELSE, including no other kinds of work." Just me, or does she come off as absolutely insufferable?!

"... I assumed that I was pretty average, so it was a shock to realize that as an Upholder, I'm actually an extreme and rare type of personality." UGH. Get over yourself.

<3 Gretchen Rubin. Wasn't particularly excited for this but now loving it.

Literally just started the introduction and saw "I've learned to put great store in my own observations of everyday life, because while laboratory experiments are one way to study human nature, they aren't the only way. I'm a kind of street scientist." That's . . . not the same as science. Anecdotal evidence is NOT scientific.

My bad habits are stopping me from reading this book about habits.

I am FINALLY almost done this one!!!

Really great. I love that Gretchen asks such prying questions and gives vivid examples to help you learn about yourself.

I'm enjoying this but not as much as the happy books.

Moving slowly but really enjoying this one!

Very similar to the Happiness Project - excellent, even life-changing information and research mixed with barely-relevant recaps of conversations that the author had that make her sound really annoying.

Found out I'm a rebel, which explains why I'm taking so long to finish this book!

yep, love this book.

I am really into reading life improvement books, and this one is awesome so far. it's funny, down to earth, and Gretchen Rubin is relatable and a quality writer.

Extraordinarily helpful, thus far. Already well worth my time ...
