Atomic Habits For for Brain Injury Recovery

I actually read Atomic Habits by James Clear when it first came out. I wrote a post about my first impressions back then, and it’s been on my re-read list ever since.

In particular, since my crash, the concept of developing better habits has been essential to my recovery.
