We rely on willpower to create change in our lives...but what if we're
thinking about it all wrong? In Willpower Doesn't Work, Benjamin Hardy
explains that willpower is nothing more than a dangerous fad-one that is
bound to lead to failure. Instead of "white-knuckling" your way to
change, you need to instead alter yoursurroundings to support your
goals. This book shows you how.
The world around us is fast-paced, confusing, and full of distractions.
It's easy to lose focus on what you want to achieve, and your willpower
won't last long if your environment is in conflict with your
goals--eventually, the environment will win out. Willpower Doesn't
Workis the needed guided for today's over-stimulating and addicting
environment. Willpower Doesn't Work will specifically teach you:
-
How to make the biggest decisions of your life--and why those
decisions must be made in specific settings
-
How to create a daily "sacred" environment to live your life with
intention, and not get sucked into the cultural addictions
-
How to invest big in yourself to upgrade your environment and mindset
-
How to put "forcing functions" in your life--so your default behaviors
are precisely what you want them to be
-
How to quickly put yourself in proximity to the most successful people
in the world--and how to adapt their knowledge and skills to yourself
even quicker
-
How to create an environment where endless creativity and boundless
productivity is the norm
Benjamin Hardy will show you that nurture is far more powerful than your
nature, and teach you how to create and control your environment so your
environment will not create and control you.
