The Science of Making & Breaking Habits: How to Change Your Life in 1 Month

Hey, it's your friend Mel and welcome to the Mel Robbins Podcast. I just got out of the studio and I am so excited for you to hear today's conversation because ever since starting this podcast three years ago, I have wanted to sit down with the person who just left our Boston studios. He's a world-renowned researcher and the number one best-selling author. whose book on habits has sold 25 million copies, and more than any other book, this is the book that has fundamentally changed my approach to behavior change and habits. What book am I talking about?

Well, I'm talking about none other than Atomic Habits. James Clear taught me, your friend Mel Robbins, that change isn't about willpower. It's about systems. James's going to tell you today. Goals are about the results you want to achieve.

Systems are the processes that lead to those results. And what you're about to learn is that there are very simple, specific systems that you need to have in order to break bad habits and create new ones. Today, you're going to learn exactly what these systems are, how to set them up, why they work. And even if you've read Atomic Habits, you need to hear the conversation today because number one, you've probably forgotten the systems. And number two, James is about to share things he has never said in any other interview.
