Status Updates From Better Than Before: Masteri...

Just Because - Treats

Johnny Cash's to do list: Kiss June. Don't kiss anyone else. Worry. I just added "Worry about work" to my to do list for next week. And I feel better already.

Not feeling well = catchup on TV and reading.

Tonight's chapter was on habit pairing.

"The conduct of our lives is the true reflection of our thoughts." - Michel de Montaigne

Want to finish this week so I can start the Tidying book.

The danger of finish lines and goals in habit formation.

Getting back in the habit of reading before bed :)

Not quite owl or lark, procrastinator, over buyer, simplicity lover, opener, familiarity lover, promotion-focused, big step taker.

Can't tell if I'm an Upholder or a Questioner. An Upholder who questions but had learned to go with the program?

I'm an Obliger. I need accountability. So, I'm counting on someone to ping me if I don't finish this book by Aug 1 :)

"How we schedule our days is how we spend our lives."

The importance of scheduling regular tasks

This is going to be a great help for me in many ways, this book will be passed on to others. Thank you, Gretchen!

Slow starting, but, excellent reading and excellent new paths I plan to choose.

Great!!!!!!!

I think this will prove useful for me!

I'm an Obliger. Not surprised.

"The conduct of our lives is the true reflection of our thoughts." - Michel de Montaigne

Habits eliminate our need for self control. Hmm.

A lot of this book is repetitive, and the way she gives people recommendations unsolicited is kind of annoying (maybe I'm a bit rebel, who knows?). But I am enjoying the motivating aspects of this books, and am learning ways that might work for me to make new habits. The consideration of different personalities is great. Also, I apparently have most of the same tendencies as the author.

Great practical advice for habit formation. I love the categories of personality types...I was able to identify my type immediately and so am able to develop specific strategies for developing desirable habits.

I would not want to be friends with this author. She seems to use everybody in her life as a guinea pig.

Lots of good ideas and she lets you self-diagonose your own type of habit forming and habit keeping person.

Random gems but a lot of wading to get to them.

kind of boring

Snore Going over all the different characteristics of decision-making/habits and I feel like in all of the cases I fall into the less desirable of the choices. So, I'm hoping there is some redeeming insight later on.

Absolutely adore this book.

I am loving this book!
