Review:
This was a nice self-help book; it was not earth-shattering with the information, but I still enjoyed myself. The layout was nice with a chapter dedicated to every habit so there was enough time to go in-depth with each topic. I did think that the book title was a little misleading, I thought there would be 24 habits for each hour but there were only 15 (which is still a lot). The two themes that I found to be the most well-written chapters were habit 2 and 15, mapping out your day, and sleep is more important than you think respectively. I know those are the two best ways to set your day up for success, but it is difficult to notice, work on and improve those two habits for myself.
The book seems well-researched, and the antidotes kept me engaged. Some of the chapters would run a little long but I think some people would like the more in-depth chapters, it is just not my cup of tea. You can tell Vivian, is very well-read, and respected in her community. She had plenty of suggestions to help not only your work life but your home life, and relationships of all kinds as well.
Final Thoughts: Overall, nothing was completely new, but it is nice to be reminded of habits that are productive and to challenge yourself to get 1% better each day. I think anyone new to the self-help book world would get a lot out of this to get a good overview of all the different aspects of life that can be improved.
