    Summary of The Power of Habit by Charles Duhigg  
    by FlashBooks Book Summaries, Narrated by Dean Bokhari 
    About 
    In The Power of Habit, Charles Duhigg, award-winning business reporter for The New York Times, takes us to the thrilling edge of scientific discoveries that explain why habits exist and how they can be changed. By distilling vast amounts of information into engrossing narratives, Duhigg brings to light a whole new understanding of human nature and its potential for transformation. 
     
    Along the way, we learn why some people and companies struggle to change, despite years of trying, while others seem to remake themselves overnight. We discover the neuroscience behind how habits work and precisely which parts of the brain they develop and reside within. We discover how the right habits were crucial to the successful promotion of Pepsodent; to Tony Dungy who led his team to a Super Bowl win by changing one step in his players’ habit loop; and we learn how a large corporation managed to turned itself around by changing just one routine within the organization. 
     
    At its core, The Power of Habit contains an exhilarating argument: The key to exercising regularly, losing weight, raising exceptional children, becoming more productive, building revolutionary companies and social movements, and achieving success is about understanding how habits work. By harnessing this new science, we can transform our businesses, our communities and our lives. 
     
    Here’s what you’ll learn about in this summary: 
    Why the brain tries to make routines into habits.How cravings create and power new habits.How to apply the golden rule of habit change.What “keystone habits” are and the importance of them in creating a new routine.

    In this milestone book, a previous examiner, legitimate master, and driving expert on sexual viciousness looks at why we are prepared to distrust charges of sexual maltreatment — and how we can change a culture and a general set of laws organized to excuse informers 
    Sexual offense allegations flash contending claims: her statement against his. How would we conclude who is coming clean? The response comes down to believability. However, as this enlightening book uncovers, imperceptible powers twist the validity decisions of even the benevolent among us. We are undeniably molded by a bunch of misleading suppositions and secret predispositions implanted in our way of life, our overall set of laws, and our minds. 
    In Tenable, the creator gives a genuinely necessary system to make sense of how we see validity, why our discernments are contorted, and why these twists hurt survivors. Social orders and disparities cultivate question that is typical and unsurprising, bringing about what the creator calls the "validity markdown" — our excusal of cases by particular sorts of speakers — basically ladies, and particularly the individuals who are more minimized.

    How this audio learning experience works 
    This audio presentation has been designed using an experiential learning model, Kolb, D. A. (1984): concrete learning, reflective observation, abstract conceptualization, and active experimentation. 
    By taking this approach we hope to cater for all learning styles. 
    You will be given specific new information in the recording usually as “key tips”, “explanations” and “quotes”. You will be led through a gentle but positive meditative reflection process to assist you before conceptualisation and then putting your new skills into practice. 
    You will be encouraged to return to the recording from time to time to re-listen and reinforce your learning and the desired changes in your life. 
    Enjoy!
