JAMES CLEAR, a first reading
Clear explains habit change through the environments and systems that support repeated small actions.
Habits and systems: what does it mean?
Goals specify desired results; systems organize the actions that can lead toward them. Designing cues, environments, and rewards can make habits easier to sustain, without treating willpower as the sole explanation for change.
