- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5EXCELLENT FOUNDATION IN STARTING TO BOOST YOUR WILLPOWER AND DEVELOP YOUR PRODUCTIVITY
This book has tremendously changed the way i approach my work. I used to procrastinate a lot more than I do now. The book gives you the answers to your discipline & time management problems and practical solutions to fix them…
The techniques are simple and effective and the book is written in a fun and engaging way, sometimes it totally hooks you on the reading.
What really sets this book apart are the examples of his personal experiments, which really adds to the credibility of the author.
The only downside is that I felt that there are more things that could be said on certain topics, for example sleep and diet, but that's nothing some extra research on your part can't fix.
The exercises at the end of every chapter are pretty easy and straightforward, although at times a bit tedious, will all allow you to up your productivity and understand a little bit more about yourself in the process. Not all of them will work for you, but if you make the effort to try them out and consequently integrate into your lifestyle the ones that work really well, your procrastination will subside and your productivity will skyrocket.

Introduction
Self Discipline
Some people seem to have it all. They have great jobs, flawless bodies, and beautiful marriages. They even have the energy to go to the gym in the morning! Their self-belief is unshakable. When they want to accomplish something, they just do it. They seem to most of us to be godlike.
Okay, so I exaggerated a little. Nobody has a perfect life.
Some of us get quite close. What separates these fortunate individuals from the majority? What about them attracts success after success and opportunity after opportunity? You've probably observed that these outstanding individuals have a remarkable capacity to stay optimistic and stoic, even when everything around them falls apart.
Further, have you ever wondered how people who work and live in harsh environments keep going without giving up?
Some of them seem to enjoy the task! You've surely heard of Special Ops teams that spend weeks on near-impossible missions or adventurers who spend months trekking through freezing climes.
Other extraordinary people have lifestyles that need a different kind of extreme focus and concentration. A typical day in the life of a Zen Buddhist monk, for example, consists entirely of prayer and meditation. They reject the temptations of the earthly world and devote themselves entirely to spiritual growth. They are the religious counterparts of Olympic gymnasts and Fortune 500 CEOs. How can they maintain such a high level of motivation? What motivates them?
We may answer these issues with a single word: self-discipline.
It's not really about luck, you see. Sure, some individuals are born with genes that make them more attractive or happier than the typical person. But it's their laser-sharp concentration, tenacity, and the capacity to keep going when everyone else would give up that elevates a regular Joe or Jane to superhero status. You will discover their secrets in this book.
If you've ever wondered why you never seem to live up to your full potential, this is the book for you. If you're sitting on a pile of unfulfilled goals and ambitions, get ready to change your life! You're going to discover the secret that defines every successful athlete, CEO, and performer. You'll learn how some of the world's strongest people, including Navy SEALs and Spartans, consistently confronted danger and came out on top.
Why is this issue so important to me? I didn't realize the value of self-discipline until I was in my early thirties. I'd worked for several well-known firms, succeeding in most of my responsibilities in their human resources departments. But there was always something lacking. I felt as though I were losing control of my career. After all, no matter how big my position was, my work function and knowledge level were always chosen by someone else.
My normal pattern would be: I'd apply for an exciting new job, spend the first year getting to know the business culture, but then, around the 18-month mark, I'd get a growing sensation of claustrophobia. I'd become itchy. I'd fantasize about leaving my corporate job and becoming a freelancer. What would it be like to be my own boss? But every time I attempted to visualize truly starting my own company and accepting full responsibility for my life, I ran into a brick block. I couldn't seem to make a fresh start, no matter how much I wanted to. How would I keep myself motivated to look for new clients? Who would hold me accountable for my schedule? It all felt so overwhelming. As you can expect, I was nervous. I was at a fork in the road.
What eventually tipped the scales in my favor? One discussion helped. I was sitting at the coffee shop with a considerably older coworker one morning. He'd been in his position for over ten years and he despised it. We were chatting about the holidays we were going to take that year and I admitted that for a long time I'd wanted to start my company and travel the globe, going from country to country.
He burst out laughing. Yeah, yeah,
he said. That's something no one ever does.
A rush of disgust swept over me as he went back to his desk. So this is how losing feels, I reasoned. He is correct. That's something I couldn't do. It's all a dream. I don't think I've got it in me—or do I?
I had a decision to make. I could stay where I was, talking about the same difficulties and unmet dreams year after year, or I could make a drastic shift. I had a few self-help books on hand, some of which were unopened presents.
I immersed myself in
