Totally agree with what you’re saying here. I really liked that Charlie Munger quote too, (I’ve added it to my collection of inspiring quotes). A couple of books I can recommend for habits: The Power of Habit & Atomic Habits. My simple philosophy is if you can get one thing from anything you read, watch, listen it’s great value. Thanks for sharing😎
I read the power of habit first and while reading it I came across some articles by James Clear (atomic habits) I read a huge amount of his articles on his website (he is very sharing with his references to the book) so I got some valuable points just from his site that I felt obligated to get the book which was great value.
I think Atomic Habits, from what I can remember, was my first ‘self-help’ book. I could have done worse. I was and still are fascinated by marginal gains.
Thanks Nick!
After reading Poor Charlie’s Almanack a few months ago it’s hard not to sneak a bit of Charlie wisdom into my articles. He just makes so much sense.
Great article, as I was reading it, what came immediately to mind was “Invert, always invert”.
I use this approach constantly.
Easier to eliminate what makes you unhappy, than search for the elusive happiness potion.
It has been guiding me forward.
Happy to see you also brought it up on the close of the article too! That Charlie was brilliant in many ways.

Thanks Mark for the kind words 😊
I’ve read Atomic Habits (brilliant) but not The Power of Habit. I’ll check it out 👍
