Think with Charles Duhigg's tools
12 Stations through Duhigg's two books, from the loop behind a habit to the three conversations inside every talk, ending in a conversation habit of your own.
We do not re-summarise The Power of Habit; it has its own road. We connect two books: the habit loop and how to rewrite it, from The Power of Habit, then Supercommunicators' three conversations, about what this is, how we feel and who we are, and how to match them. The order is a teaching order designed by BookYol, not the author's own.

Milestone
Destination: a conversation habit
A one-line plan for one recurring conversation is written: the cue, a check on which kind of conversation it is, one question, one loop and the reward, with two weeks of notes on what changed.
