Atomic Habits

 Here are 10 lessons from Atomic Habits: An Easy & Proven Way to Build Good Habits & Break Bad Ones by James Clear:


 1. Focus on Systems, Not Goals  

   - Success is achieved by improving daily habits, not by fixating on end goals. Systems lead to sustainable progress.


 2. Start Small to Build Momentum  

   - Small, incremental changes compound over time. Even a 1% improvement daily leads to significant results.


 3. Habit Stacking Creates Momentum  

   - Link a new habit to an existing one. For example, after brushing your teeth, meditate for a minute.


 4. Make Habits Obvious  

   - Design your environment to encourage good habits. For instance, place a book by your bedside to encourage reading.


 5. Make Habits Attractive  

   - Pair new habits with something enjoyable to make them more appealing and easier to adopt.


 6. Leverage the Power of Identity  

   - Shift your mindset from "I want to quit smoking" to "I am not a smoker." Align your habits with the person you want to become.


 7. Break Bad Habits by Making Them Invisible  

   - Remove cues and triggers from your environment to discourage undesirable behaviors.


 8. Use the 2-Minute Rule  

   - Start any new habit with an action that takes less than two minutes. For example, "open a book" instead of "read for an hour."


 9. Track Your Progress  

   - Keep a habit tracker to visually measure your consistency. It reinforces the habit and motivates you to continue.


 10. Focus on Long-Term Rewards 

   - Good habits have delayed rewards, while bad habits often have instant gratification. Train yourself to prioritize long-term benefits.

Archaeologists believe England’s most iconic prehistoric ruin was built in several stages with the earliest constructed 5,000 or more years ago. First, Neolithic* Britons used primitive tools, which may have been fashioned out of deer antlers , to dig a massive circular ditch and bank, or henge. Deep pits dating back to that era and located within the circle may have once held a ring of timber posts , according to some scholars Several hundred years later, it is thought, Stonehenge’s builders hoisted an estimated 80 bluestones, 43 of which remain...

Urban farming In Paris, urban farmers are trying a soil-free approach to agriculture that uses less space and fewer resources. Could it help cities face the threats to our food supplies? On top of a striking new exhibition hall in southern Paris, the world’s largest urban rooftop farm has started to bear fruit. Strawberries that are small, intensely flavoured and resplendently red sprout abundantly from large plastic tubes. Peer inside and you see the tubes are completely hollow, the roots of dozens of strawberry plants dangling down inside them. From identical vertical tubes nearby burst row upon row of lettuces; near those are aromatic herbs, such as basil, sage and peppermint. Opposite, in narrow, horizontal trays packed not with soil but with coconut fibre, grow cherry tomatoes, shi...
