While compiling a list of books about habits, it would be impossible to ignore the fact that some people just want to make changes to their lives and relationships.
Truthfully, it is hard to habitualize your relationships. As the saying goes, it takes two people to argue. You can make all the changes you want and not necessarily lead to any difference.
However, if you do not try, one thing is certain — things will always stay the same or get worse.
Some of these life and relationship books, such as “Why We Don't Listen Better“, will give you ways to better communicate.
Some books, like “Power Cues” focus on mastering the art of persuasion, and some like “20,000 Days” simply focus on making those important changes in your life. Some of the books, of course, only deal with finding that special someone or keeping your current relationship strong and thriving.
