Blinkist gives you "Atomic Habits in 15 minutes." Distilo gives you the identity-change framework as an animated explainer video, connects it to Kahneman's System 1/System 2, shows you where Clear's argument is weakest, quizzes you on it next Tuesday, and maps it all into your growing knowledge graph.
Your brain has a forgetting curve. We have a system.
Distilo's Learning Engine fights back with research-backed retention science.

Atomic Habits
James Clear
Clear's radical premise inverts conventional wisdom: forget ambitious goals and focus on getting 1% better each day. The compound mathematics — 37× improvement over a year — provide the quantitative backbone, but the book's real insight lies elsewhere: in the Identity-Based Habits framework, which argues lasting change requires becoming a different person, not just achieving different outcomes.
