Ship It Review -1

This books has been described Habits in interesting manner. Following story took from it and the story shows how we should go for a decision rather considering everybody doing it or becuse of we have already done it.

Story:

Did you hear the story of the woman who always cooked ham by cutting off and discarding a third of it first? When asked why, she said that was how her mother always cooked hams.

and it became a habit.
