Tranquility by Tuesday

2022

by Laura Vanderkam

Tranquility by Tuesday is not just a time management book about "how to do it all." Instead, it's a guide to intentionally living the life that you want and becoming an autonomous steward of life's possibilities. Laura Vanderkam, the bestselling author of What the Most Successful People Do Before Breakfast, shares nine strategies for reclaiming your hours and building opportunities for joy, nourishment, and fulfillment into your week.

Based on a time diary study of over 150 people, Vanderkam's book provides insights into how real people changed their lives using her nine rules. These strategies include embracing habits like "Three times a week is a habit," seeking out "One big adventure, one little adventure," and prioritizing "Effortful before effortless."

The book is a beacon for anyone who's tired of to-do lists dictating their time and who hopes for a less hectic life. Vanderkam explains that if you want something to happen, you need to design your life to make it so. Life's unpredictable nature, as seen during the COVID-19 pandemic, means that dull tasks can quickly consume our precious hours. However, with a resilient schedule, and not necessarily a perfect one, it's possible to make time for what truly matters.

The Power of Habit: Why We Do What We Do in Life and Business

2012

by Charles Duhigg

A young woman walks into a laboratory. Over the past two years, she has transformed almost every aspect of her life. She has quit smoking, run a marathon, and been promoted at work. The patterns inside her brain, neurologists discover, have fundamentally changed.Marketers at Procter & Gamble study videos of people making their beds. They are desperately trying to figure out how to sell a new product called Febreze, on track to be one of the biggest flops in company history. Suddenly, one of them detects a nearly imperceptible pattern—and with a slight shift in advertising, Febreze goes on to earn a billion dollars a year.An untested CEO takes over one of the largest companies in America. His first order of business is attacking a single pattern among his employees—how they approach worker safety—and soon the firm, Alcoa, becomes the top performer in the Dow Jones.What do all these people have in common? They achieved success by focusing on the patterns that shape every aspect of our lives. They succeeded by transforming habits.In The Power of Habit, award-winning New York Times business reporter Charles Duhigg takes us to the thrilling edge of scientific discoveries that explain why habits exist and how they can be changed. With penetrating intelligence and an ability to distill vast amounts of information into engrossing narratives, Duhigg brings to life 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 visit laboratories where neuroscientists explore how habits work and where, exactly, they reside in our brains. We discover how the right habits were crucial to the success of Olympic swimmer Michael Phelps, Starbucks CEO Howard Schultz, and civil-rights hero Martin Luther King, Jr. We go inside Procter & Gamble, Target superstores, Rick Warren’s Saddleback Church, NFL locker rooms, and the nation’s largest hospitals and see how implementing so-called keystone habits can earn billions and mean the difference between failure and success, life and death.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 understanding how habits work. Habits aren’t destiny. As Charles Duhigg shows, by harnessing this new science, we can transform our businesses, our communities, and our lives.
