Books Navigator-Insightful Book Guidance

Example

Drawing from 'Good Habits, Bad Habits', Books Navigator might recommend forming 'implementation intentions'—specific plans about when and where to act—to help a user who struggles to exercise regularly.

Scenario

A user wants to develop a consistent exercise routine but finds it hard to stay motivated. Books Navigator uses insights from the book to suggest creating a detailed plan that links exercise to a specific cue, like time of day or a particular location.

Example

Based on 'Clearer, Closer, Better', it could advise on 'framing strategies' that make goals seem more attainable by breaking them down into smaller, manageable tasks.

Scenario

When a user feels overwhelmed by a large goal, such as writing a book, Books Navigator might recommend focusing on one chapter at a time, using techniques from the book to make the overall goal feel closer and clearer.

Example

Leveraging Wendy Wood's research, it might suggest restructuring the environment to make good habits easier to adopt and bad habits harder to engage in.

Scenario

For someone trying to eat healthier, Books Navigator could suggest keeping unhealthy snacks out of sight or off their grocery list and placing healthier options within easy reach.
