For those reading this comment, I would honestly advise just picking up a psychology textbook that focuses on learning; the "Power of Habit" he refers to is just basic learning and behavior modification. The "Power of Habit" book is full of rambling anecdotes that do more to obfuscate the valuable content than emphasize it.
- ortekk 10y agoWhich one would you recommend?
- adolph 10y agoI too found the anecdotes rambling and in the way. On the other hand, some folks may find the stories to be parables or mind palaces [1] that enhance retention of key points. YMMV 1. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Method_of_loci https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Method_of_loci
- petra 10y agoActive learning is usually more effective than passive learning , so reading a shorter focused book while building memory palaces should be more efective .
