Wow thank you to the author! There is more packed into this small book than can be found in the self-help aisle of Barnes and Noble and a 100 improvement blogs combined. I enjoy learning and growing and especially appreciate the shortcuts that come from the opportunity to glean from the insight of others. This little gem of a book provides that opportunity in a simple and basic format that makes even the obvious profound. It contains ideas and strategies that I am quickly applying to my career, finances, relationships, health and fitness. Many I already am doing but the book raised my awareness of their importance and how to tweak them. The book is laid out in a simple, easy to read format. The author backs his statements with research, science (although no citations) and case studies of real people. The book goes a step further by providing written exercises, charts and forms than can help readers become aware of what they are doing, what they should be doing, and how to get to the desired next step. I think whether you already successful in these areas of your life or whether you realize you have leaps and bounds to grow, you will grow from “Change Your Habits, Change Your Life.” Thank you Tom Corley for the heart you have poured into this book and into Rich Habits: The Daily Success Habits of Wealthy Individuals. I recommend both books.Disclaimer Alert: I never heard of the author until last month when he was a guest on a J. Money and Paul Pant M.O.N.E.Y podcast. I’m a 50-something female on a journey to make these last 5 to 10 years of my career life the best they can be and to make the remaining “retired” years the most amazing they can be. I’ve nothing to gain from this review except the hope others will buy the book and add value to their already valuable lives.

Habits can make you Rich or Poor. It is your choice
What a wonderful book. It is not smarts, talent, or working hard that will make you rich and happy sustainably.Its your habits. It take ~ 66 days to form a new habit, and 21 days to break a bad habit. Only when you have a strong purpose or large enough carrot, will you have and need the determination to get you over the 21 or 66 day hump to break or form a new habit.Habits are something that should be taught in school.A great read.William TehInvestor | Author | EntrepreneurTTTrends Investments

The Habits of the Millionaires Next Door are revealed
This book presents one method to become healthy, wealthy and wise. It explains the slow method of becoming rich by making progress and saving each year over an extended period of time. In this gem of a book, Tom Corley, a CPA, and CFA shares 26 “rich” habits among wealthy people that helped them become rich. Corley also reveals "poor" habits that prevent people from becoming wealthy. The idea behind the book is that if an average person switches from following poor habits to developing rich habits, s/he can become rich too [with an early enough start to allow compound interest to work its magic].

Practical To-Dos From The Wealthy
I read this book as a follow-up to Charles Duhigg's, Power of Habit. Nowhere have I seen an exclusive study done on such a specific subset of successful individuals, millionaires. Not only did Corely go into scientific details of the how and why of habits, but does so with intimate knowledge of what made his clients so successful. In addition, he provides very practical steps on how to build rich habits into one's life. Something, I'm currently in the process of. That said, if you're a person who can apply knowledge in real life, then this book is for you. It'll probably transform your life in someway down the road. Otherwise, I suggest The Power of Habit instead.

Absolutely, Fantastic!
Even if you don't like Self-Help books, this is a must read for anybody that wants to improve themselves, and become more effective and efficient. Highly Recommend is a complete understatement, and doesn't give this awesome book the credit that it deserves for being outstanding! The only minor compliant is that while it's a short read, sometimes it a bit heavy on the science, but that's also what makes this book groundbreaking and unique!
