For busy people who want habits that actually stick (without burning out)

A new practical book that helps you

Build habits that stick – feel better, focus better, and live better

Without pressure, perfection, or starting from zero.

A calmer approach to building habits that last 

The 4-Part Habit Compass (Pause • Plan • Practice • Partner) is a simple approach to building habits that stick — without the painful cycle of pushing harder, failing, and restarting.

This approach helps you improve your habits without needing to:

  • overhaul your whole life in one go
  • chase perfection instead of progress
  • follow routines that don’t survive real life
  • rely on motivation (to only blame yourself)

We achieve this by creating space, making conscious choices, and returning to them — again and again.

Which means you can focus on what matters — your work, your relationships, and your wellbeing instead of worrying about discipline, perfection, or getting it “right.”

Happy Habits is a shortcut

Before writing the book Happy Habits, I was doing what many people do when they want to feel better, focus more, or change something in their life: I was trying harder. Reading more. Setting rules.

Making plans that looked good on paper but didn’t survive real life. From the outside, it looked like discipline. On the inside, it felt exhausting.

At some point, I realised I had made a deal I never consciously agreed to: that change had to be uncomfortable, forceful, or driven by pressure.

That assumption quietly shaped everything — until it stopped working. So instead of pushing more, I started questioning the model itself. Not breaking rules — just letting go of the ones that didn’t serve me anymore.

Over time, through observation, reflection, and lived experience (not hacks or hype, rather layoffs and losses), a different approach emerged. One that didn’t ask for perfection. One that worked with real life instead of against it. That’s what became Happy Habits.

And it’s the same approach you’re being invited to use here.

Here’s the difference between how most of us try to change and a calmer way that actually lasts.

Here's what this means for you and your life

Once you grab your copy of Happy Habits, you’ll finally be able to stop doing the things that look like change but don't actually last — and start feeling better, focusing better, and living with more ease.

Which means no more:

❌  starting habits with enthusiasm and abandoning them later
❌  forcing yourself into motivation when you’re already tired
❌  trying to "fix" yourself instead of understanding yourself
❌  comparing your progress to other people’s routines
❌  setting unrealistic plans that don’t survive real life
❌  feeling guilty for trying but being “inconsistent”
❌  believing that you just need more discipline

And instead, you'll finally be able to:

✅  feel calmer, clearer, and finally more grounded
✅  choose habits that actually fit your energy or life
✅  develop habits that grow quietly and stay with you
✅  return to habits gently even when things get messy
✅  create space before reacting or rushing into change
✅  build consistency without pressure or self-judgement
✅  trust yourself again instead of starting over from scratch

If this sounds like the kind of change you’ve been looking for, you can grab your copy below.

If you’d like to understand how this approach works — and why it feels so different from everything else you’ve tried — keep reading.

Hi there, I’m Gunnar Habitz.

I didn’t write Happy Habits to help people do more. I wrote it to help people feel less pressure while creating change that actually lasts.

Over the past years, I’ve written more than 25 books, worked across corporate and creative worlds, and lived through multiple life transitions that forced me to rethink how habits really work — in real life, not in ideal conditions.

Happy Habits is the framework I wish I had earlier: gentle, practical, and designed for humans, not machines.

This book is not at all about becoming someone new who you don't know. It’s about returning to what already works and building from there.

PS: Habitz really is my last name — written with a "z"... it's not a pen name 😀

I’m offering you a practical 128-page book called Happy Habits — designed to help you feel better, focus better, and live with more ease, one habit at a time.

Inside the book, I share a simple framework built around four phases:
