When something works, that which doesn't work is exposed. The science in Mini Habits exposes the predictably inconsistent results of most popular personal growth strategies, and reveals why mini habits are consistent.

When you start playing by your brain's rules—as mini habits show you how to do—lasting change isn't so hard.
