This book does not say anything that has not been said before. But Scott says it in a way that is familiar to us. Easy to grasp. Meaningul. And therefore it can have a really significant impact on our lives. Most of us are not great entrepreneurs or geniuses. We are "just a guy" that seeks to make the most of our lives, enjoy it and share the joy of it with our family and friends. This book is for us, most of us. And of course, also for great entrepreneurs and geniuses.
The most important lesson I learned from this book is to order my daily mini chores in piles that take about half an hour, ending with one of my keystone habits. That was my biggest "aha moment": to end up with an important habit like working out, doing my most difficult or important task of the day, etc.
There is a great little change that I am adding to my life thanks to this book: take my ordinary daily tasks and stack them in the right order and time of day, sometimes adding one or two tasks that I have not thought of before. This has helped me make a great change: I start and close every moment of my day doing what is most important to be productive and have a clear mind. I have 6 stacks, 2 for every moment of my day: before work, work, after work. My previous efforts to take control of my life are very easy to handle now. I'm getting more results with the tools I've been using for a while (Getting Things Done, Bullet Journal, Konmari method, etcetera).
I have not finished reading the list of 127 habits, but I think the concept of stacking habits and the advice that Scott gives to make it more fruitful are useful even if anyone is only going to take his or her daily tasks and order them in a new way, more fluent and more productive. There is no need to incorporate new habits to improve your life using this book. But surely I am taking more than one of the 127 habits to add even more value to my life. Thank you!
