Some of the primary things I got out of this book:
  • Make it easier on yourself – Go slowly into new, helpful habits bit-by-bit
  • Reward yourself, being mindful that those rewards align with what you are striving toward
  • Make the habits you are divesting from less appealing
  • Behave as though you are the person you're striving to be; don't think "I'm quitting x", think "I do not do x"
These and other similar lessons were helpful. However, the repeated exemplars of nutrition and exercise as they relate to body size/appearance were not universally applicable; these examples and many like them felt like inappropriately-universalized prescriptions for an audience that likely strives to do more than alter their weight. While I did pick up some pointers, it was clear that this book was written by a businessman, and not a behavioral scientist or humanist.
