I was intrigued by the premise of this book, “Habit Flip – Transform your life with 101 small changes to your daily routines” by  R.L. Adams. The writer talks about “habit flips”, about those small disruptive adjustments that we may make to our daily routines that has such a transformational effect on our lives, helping us break the bad habits which are really stopping us from achieving our full potential – whether it's great health, great body, sound financial state, happy relationships and so on.This book was specially useful to me as the writer talks at length about a really bad habit of mine that has caused me so much – procrastination.  I have procrastinated going on a hard diet + exercise regime, postponing time and time again, even with the full knowledge of it not being the right thing to do. I have suffered a lot because of this habit, because of all the weight that I've picked up, and am really quite ashamed of my fitness level. But the problem was my bad habit of procrastination, which I hadn't identified as such, taking it as a normal.Writer Adams talks about how the first step in tackling a bad habit, and executing the habit flips is identifying the bad habit. I immediately identified procrastination as the root of most of my problems, even as I was reading the book. Then, he patiently explains how to analyze, disrupt and eliminate it, about the “habit flips” to be used. I found the information very useful.I also liked the financial habit flips and relationship habit flips, which I'll try to implement in my life. To conclude, I'm quite impressed by the depth of information and great advice in this book.
