This week’s book of the week is The Power of Habit by Charles Duhigg. A New York Times bestseller, the power of habit talks about why we do what we do in life and business. One of the most interesting things about habits, as Charles mentions in the TED talk below, “When a habit emerges, the brain stops fully participating in decision making. It stops working so hard, or divest focus to other tasks. So unless you deliberately fight a habit – unless you find new routines – the pattern will unfold automatically.”
Each week I pick a Book of the Week with the intention of helping you find and develop your “superpowers”. Throughout the week I will discuss the book and look forward to your input in the discussions. This blog is or superheroes and superheroes in training.
