Willpower. Take control of your life.
6.99 €
Lack of willpower is the main social pathology of our time, according to the authors of this book. Shopaholism, procrastination, low self-esteem, chronic depression, conflicts with loved ones - behind most of these problems is a lack of self-control. And, on the contrary, it is the ability to control oneself that underlies almost all success stories.
Understanding this, two brilliant minds, Roy F. Baumeister and John Tierney, offer readers a simple system of self-education. It is infinitely realistic and based on the physiological characteristics of the human body. For example, the authors link manifestations of willpower with the decisions that had to be made the day before, with the level of glucose in the blood, with hormonal processes in the body. The approach of Baumeister and Tierney is a rare case when the problem is proposed to be solved not head-on, but using roundabout, often much shorter than the main, paths.
Who is this book for
For everyone who suffers from a lack of willpower. He spends his whole life trying to compensate for it and fails every time. This is an amazing book that can help even inveterate procrastinators and complete anti-achievers.
