Description
David Rossi was a man who had it all—his own business with annual sales of $30+ million, a beautiful wife, children, a big house, vacation homes, cars, boats, private schools for the kids, and exotic vacations for the family. Only one thing was missing: happiness. It was only after David’s life fell apart—he lost his business, his marriage, and his best friend—that he took a leap of faith and went on an earnest search for happiness. What happened? David transformed his life. He found lasting happiness.
David wrote The Imperative Habit, so you too can move from dissatisfaction and suffering to joy, contentedness, and peace. The Imperative Habit details the seven habits that changed David’s life. In this book, you learn how to shed old beliefs and make new ones, and how to practice and form habits, create growth, and eventually experience real transformation. By practicing the steps of the Imperative Habit, you can:
- Leave behind old beliefs that no longer serve you
- Deconstruct self-sabotaging behaviors
- Develop self-awareness and consciousness
- Create new goals in alignment with your true self
- Make conscious choices to drive yourself toward your goals
- Live a happy, joyful, fulfilling, and meaningful life, as you are meant to live When you follow the steps in The Imperative Habit, just like David, you too can make authentic happiness your true north.

Take Control with this Practice
I read this book and refer back to it several times a month, refreshing and renewing my own habits. As a child I had no choice of my reactions and followed what was modeled for me. This book provides simple habits to wear new pathways in the grass, shaping and forming what you choose for yourself. Choose love. Choose compassion. Choose to love yourself. Choose to clear the river of happiness that is inside you with the imperative habits Dave so graciously shares.

A Life Changer!
This is a great book! At times it left me thoughtful with emotion. Which I didn’t expect. The author does a wonderful job of not only giving theory, but giving examples of his own experiences. This book can help you in so many areas of your life. I’ve read it three times and after applying the practices/habits I have lost 20 lbs. This book is a must read!

To anyone who wants to be their best, to ease unnecessary suffering, and know JOY like never before.
The brief preview of this book grabbed my attention immediately. Like the author, I too had built a life remarkably similiar to his yet in the end, it all came crashing down. The habits have given me a way to make better decisions that ultimately are leading me to a life filled with more joy, and less fear. Because of what I've learned from reading this book and applying the habits to my life, I get up every day and do what I have to do. The habits applied, are like maintenance for my mind. They are helping me to go after goals and leave my comfort zone that I would never have before. I am now creating harmony with my body, mind and my heart. It takes practice, this means work. But each day is a blessing and I made a decision to master my full potential while I'm here.
Like the author, I lost everything. My husband, my career and my home. I have a new home now, I live alone with my little dog. I often let the past and past regrets haunt me. The habits have helped me learn to let go. To unchain myself from the past. I think this was the most unexpected gift I found in this book. I recommend this book to anyone who wants to be the best they can be, who wants to increase their level of confidence, to ease unnecessary suffering and to know joy unlike ever before.

The best book ever!!!
The imperative habit has become my new favorite book. Not only has it changed my way of thinking, but my life has taken a dramatically different course for the better, since reading Dave Rossi’s book. Dave Rossi’s story, a man who had everything and lost it, and transformed his life, is not only compelling and insightful, but riveting as well. The practice of using his Seven Daily Habits will change your life instantly if you follow his lead. Happiness is easily found with this author’s intelligent take on the age-old wisdom: Can we really experience joy without suffering? I found myself reading the book over a weekend and couldn’t put it down, as I started to apply all his secrets to shift my life into balance. It has details and information where so many self-help books are just general. This author knows what you need, and hits the target every time. His philosophy that we are all programmed is not only an eye-opener, but explains so much why so many of us are in so much pain that we cannot get out of our own way. I found myself highlighting my favorite parts and going back to them on occasion when I felt myself slipping. The book not only gives you the information to manifest your dreams, but also explains why we get stuck in a rut. Dave Rossi is an excellent writer, and a spiritual leader that everyone should read if they want to find their bliss. I just can’t wait for his next book, as I know this author is here to stay in the self-help community for a very long time.
