About the book

Gretchen Rubin, author of The Happiness Project, examines how habits are made and broken, starting from the premise that no single solution works for everyone. She sets out a practical framework for understanding habits and changing them, explaining core principles of habit formation, some of them counterintuitive, through research and stories of people who changed. Rubin takes up questions such as why a habit is hard to form even for something people enjoy, how to keep healthy habits amid temptation and how to help someone else change. Her answer is that self-knowledge comes first, and habits shaped to suit the person can succeed. The book reached the New York Times best-seller list.

Brene Brown endorsed it as a force for real change and named curiosity as Rubin's superpower.
