    About this ebook

    Get the Summary of Katy Milkman's How to Change in 20 minutes. Please note: This is a summary & not the original book. Original book introduction: Change comes most readily when you understand what's standing between you and success and tailor your solution to that roadblock. If you want to work out more but find exercise difficult and boring, downloading a goal-setting app probably won't help. But what if, instead, you transformed your workouts so they became a source of pleasure instead of a chore? Turning an uphill battle into a downhill one is the key to success.

    Drawing on Milkman's original research and the work of her world-renowned scientific collaborators, How to Change shares strategic methods for identifying and overcoming common barriers to change, such as impulsivity, procrastination, and forgetfulness.

Simply telling people that change is easy, cheap, and beneficial will not work. Effectively promoting behavior change requires understanding when to begin.

      #2

      People get discouraged when adopting healthy habits requires rearranging busy lives and entrenched routines. This limits their openness to change.
