The book is in three parts - one part deals with individual habits, another deals with the institutional habits and the final one on societal habits.
What is interesting in this book - most of the tim...

You cannot remain un-convinced.

The theories with practical examples are so robust and yet so simple...you will have to believe it...you become optionless to think for other logic...

I want to add many sitations and captions from book...but short of time...surely will add...

For those who believe that any change is attainable

I can't promise you that this book will trigger utter change in you, but the only thing that I can promise you that it helps you to form a framework through which you can achieve the same.

It will help you to break the bad habits and from the good ones regardless of what those habits are, which is the goal of Charles Duhigg...

Why we do 40% work in life out of habit

The book has various case studies of successful organization who succeeded in creating habit to their customer to buy their products, be it shampoo, toothpaste or cereals. The book gradually becomes very serious and try to reform the readers. Makes us unde...
