James doesn’t merely report the research of others. He tries out the concepts for himself as he experiments with building better habits as an entrepreneur, writer, and weightlifter. In the end, his talks end up being one-part storytelling, one-part academic research, and one-part personal experiment, forming a colourful blend of inspirational stories, academic science, and hard-earned wisdom.

James Clear, one of the world’s leading experts on habit formation, is known for his ability to distil complex topics into simple behaviours that can be easily applied to daily life and work. In his book Atomic Habits, which spent over a year on the New York Times bestseller list, he draws on the most proven ideas from biology, psychology, and neuroscience to create an easy-to-understand guide for making good habits inevitable and bad habits impossible.
James is a supporter of the Against Malaria Foundation, donating five per cent of his income to support AMF in distributing nets to protect children, pregnant mothers, and families from mosquitos carrying malaria. It is one of the most cost-effective ways to extend life and fulfils his bigger mission to spread healthy habits and help others realize their full potential.
