This book discusses all aspects of habitual domains: their foundations, expansion, dynamics and applications to various important problems in our lives, including effective decision making, effective goal setting, cooperation, conflict resolution, negotiation and career management. Based on an integration of psychology, system science, management and common sense and wisdom, the book provides a simple but unified set of tools to understand the human behavior mechanism. The tools can be applied to expand and sharpen our capacity for knowing ourselves, our coworkers, our rivals, and our environments, and to form winning strategies for solving our problems. To make the book fun to read and the concepts introduced easy to understand and apply, the book is illustrated with many lively and interesting examples. The first half of the book focuses on general descriptions of the behavior echanism and habitual domains, the second half on applications.
