Smarter Better Faster by Charles Duhigg is one of these rare few. Fewer still prepare us with the tools we need to do so. Many books can inspire us to achieve our goals, but few actually motivate us to achieve them. When you’re simply reading about ways to become a more efficient, productive, type-A superhuman, anything seems possible-that is, until you close the book.ĭeveloping a new habit or organizing a large part of your life is far easier said than done, which is why so many people prefer to read about ways they can achieve these goals rather than actually putting in the work necessary to achieve them. Whether you’re trying to find the motivation to organize your life, pick up a new hobby, or stay on top of your schoolwork, it always seems easy to find inspiration in the form of a “self-help” novel. Mostly in the hopes that this time, you won’t be awake at midnight the day before an important test wondering how you could have studied differently (spoiler alert: you’ll be up late studying anyway, no matter how many books you read). If you’re anything like me, you frequently read books designed to teach you how to improve the way you live your life.
