A fantastic book, feels like a fun text book, the kind a super cool teacher would assign a high-school class! It was full of great ideas and successful examples of how to make social media work for you and your business. It broke everything down into understandable bites without the normal jargon you find in a lot of business books. The Author did such a fantastic job I lent my copy to my 66 year old mom and 59 year old dad to help them understand "what us young people do with our fancy phones and Internets" we are bringing our family business into its 50th year and this will be a great help in crossing the generation gap when it comes down to how to promote successfully.
This started out as a review a day blog, that lasted for 280 days. now it is a review as I read blog.

The Power of Habit: Why We Do What We Do in Life and Business - Charles Duhigg
one sentence summary:
every been curious about your habits? Read this to learn where they came from and how to change them.
review:
A fascinating look at how to build new habits and destroy old ones. This book will help you get a deeper understanding of why you do what you do and how to change for the better. Science made simple in this well written look at how motivation works and how to make it work for you. It teaches you that everyone can be successful if they just have the self discipline and willpower to do what they already know needs to be done, and give tips on how to achieve this. This is not the best book I have read on this topic but it is fairly interesting and easy to get into. I recommend it to people who haven't read a tonne of self help already and want to change something in their life... or to business majors as it has a tonne of interesting tricks and anecdotes that will make you sound like you know your shit in class.
6/10
