具体描述

In "The Power of Habit", award-winning "New York Times" business reporter Charles Duhigg takes us to the thrilling edge of scientific discoveries that explain why habits exist and how they can be changed. With penetrating intelligence and an ability to distill vast amounts of information into engrossing narratives, Duhigg brings to life a whole new understanding of human nature and its potential for transformation. Along the way we learn why some people and companies struggle to change, despite years of trying, while others seem to remake themselves overnight. We visit laboratories where neuroscientists explore how habits work and where, exactly, they reside in our brains. We discover how the right habits were crucial to the success of Olympic swimmer Michael Phelps, Starbucks CEO Howard Schultz, and civil-rights hero Martin Luther King, Jr. We go inside Procter & Gamble, Target superstores, Rick Warren's Saddleback Church, NFL locker rooms, and the nation's largest hospitals and see how implementing so-called keystone habits can earn billions and mean the difference between failure and success, life and death. At its core, "The Power of Habit" contains an exhilarating argument: the key to exercising regularly, losing weight, raising exceptional children, becoming more productive, building revolutionary companies and social movements, and achieving success is understanding how habits work. Habits aren't destiny. As Charles Duhigg shows, by harnessing this new science, we can transform our businesses, our communities, and our lives.

读后感

第一次听的时候被故事吸引了。第二遍稍微总结了一下。 其实与其说习惯不如说是模式。当然作者的意思是有的行为模式是下意识完成的，如果合理利用，可以改变个人或者团体行为。我比较喜欢做联系，所以ambiguous definition is not such a turn off for me. 故事是多个故事穿...  

当我们谈论习惯时我们在谈论什么？ 也许是班主任老师苦口婆心地教导学生们要养成自主学习的习惯；也许是父母语重心长地叮嘱孩子要改掉丢三落四的毛病；也许是你在计划减肥的时候狠下决心要开始有规律地运动并严格控制热量的摄取；也许是你在为deadline焦头烂额的时候暗自发誓...  

Before I opened this book, I thought it would be another book just like those on positive psychology, which are spiritual. It turns out I was wrong. The book is anything but spiritual. The book, The Power of Habit, starts by explaining what is habit from th...  

拖延症患者我看了这本书两遍后，然后做了这个读书笔记。 按全书逻辑，把理论和案例都整理了一下，去除了重复的轱辘话，去除了“社会习惯”这种对个人拖延症患者没用的内容。 我觉得其实内容还算靠谱，但全书内容其实一篇文章就能搞定呢。。。 懒得看书或者买书的，我觉得看这个...
