About this audiobook
If you want to know what it takes to live a happy, independent life with an atypical brain, then keep reading…
Whether you are on the spectrum yourself or take care of a loved one who is: The fear of not making the right decisions and failing to ensure the best development possible for yourself or the person you are taking care of is an uncomfortable feeling.
Therefore, caregivers and people who are neurodivergent themselves often feel like the pressure is always on.
Fortunately, there is a proven way that supports independence and improves the ability to live an organized and anxiety-free life, even on the spectrum: Cultivating the right habits.
Most of our lives are ruled by habits, so by establishing good habits in every important aspect of life, creating a routine, and learning the skills needed, people on the spectrum can improve their life quality, do the things they love, and achieve the goals they set for themselves.
This guide provides a roadmap for people on the spectrum and caretakers, who want to experience the life-changing impact habits can have on one’s potential.
Inside, you’ll discover:
- How to successfully manage sensory and emotional issues – and turn them into strengths
- How to form good habits so you are organized and prepared
- The art of communication: Unlock hidden potentials with these 3 helpful tools
- What self-advocacy is, and why it’s especially important for people on the spectrum
- Crucial factors to ensure an independent, yet safe life
And much more.
If you are taking care of a loved one who is neurodivergent or are on the spectrum yourself, you know it is one of the biggest challenges to prepare for an independent life.
However, if you are prepared, use this guide, and understand that there is no straight line to success, you will master any difficulty along the way.

- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5Unfortunately the narration sounds like AI except that several words were mispronounced. It was hard to listen to this. Three chapters in and it has only addressed defining things that are hard for neurodiverse people without addressing habit formation at all.
