The Innovation of You – Strategies for Living Your Best Life
summary
A personal near‑death sequence leads to a pacemaker, repeated emergency surgeries and a donor organ flown from Arizona for a 12‑hour transplant surgery, which reframes priorities into concrete practices: write a 50‑item wish list, review goals daily, and adopt two‑minute habits. Cites research that 40% of the day happens on autopilot and a UMass cafeteria redesign that yields 25% more water and 11% less soda. Practical tactics: make good habits easy, bad ones difficult, and master the art of showing up.
