It's an easy read and packed with goodness.By Brian Johnson[[VIDEOID:4e4c7cc10c7c0458bac1ea5e862725a2]] "The result, after dozens of experiments in Baumeister's lab and hundreds elsewhere, is a new understanding of willpower and of the self. We want to tell you what's been learned about human behavior, and how you can use it to change yourself for the better. Acquiring self-control isn't as magically simple as the techniques in modern self-help books, but neither does it have to be as grim as the Victorians made it out to be. Ultimately, self-control lets you relax because it removes stress and enables you to conserve willpower for the important challenges. We're confident that this book's lessons can make your life not just more productive and fulfilling but also easier and happier. And we can guarantee that you will not have to endure any sermons against bare ankles.""Improving willpower is the surest way to a better life.""Self-control is a vital strength and key to success in life."~ Roy Baumeister John Tierney from WillpowerWillpower.It's ESSENTIAL to optimizing our lives. In fact, in their *great* book, Willpower, Roy Baumeister (one of the world's leading scientific researchers on self-control) and John Tierney (science writer for the New York Times) tell us that "Improving willpower is the surest way to a better life."I absolutely loved this book. It's an easy read and packed with goodness.Her are some of the Big Ideas:1. Eat Your Way to Willpower - No glucose, no willpower.2. Exercise Self-Control - And improve your life.3.

The most fascinating point is this. Willpower, self-control, free-will, whatever you would like to call it, is a relative capacity, and it is more or less controlled by certain features of our physiology, and it is particularly tied to glucose. Think of glucose in the body as the fuel that lets you run, or gives you self-control or free will. When this fuel gets burned up through the activities you engage in throughout your day, your level of self-control decreases. You make bad or hasty decisions, you get angry at a loved one, you don't do something as well as you should have, etc. And it's all because you are burning up the fuel that powers your body. The book is very good and practical about what to do to avoid your depletion of self-control, and it involves getting a reasonable amount of sleep and eating well throughout your day. 'Well' in 'eating well' is the operative word, by the way, because what gives your body a good dose of glucose that will serve your body best is healthy food that contains sugars but that does not just give your body a quick dose of sugar. Things like energy drinks, for instance, can increase your glucose levels, but they also cause a big crash because these are the kinds of sugars that burn quickly. Slow-burning sugars are the ticket. The book also gives other practical advice about kinds of exercises you can do throughout your day to increase your willpower. Perhaps it's a truism, but one easy way is setting clear goals, sticking with a standard to meet those goals, and rewarding yourself for the big and little goals met proportionate to the size of the goals are all ways you can maintain adequate levels of self-control and not use too much energy worrying or involved in trivial matters. Pretty good book.1 of 1 people found the following review helpful.This explains a lot....By Nadaa A. TaiyabI thoroughly enjoyed this book. As someone who is constantly striving to improve my willpower and self-discipline, I read this book with keen interest. However, this book gave me the most unexpected insight - why I hate shopping SO much! I avoid it, I procrastinate, I just go without even if I am perfectly able to afford the item I need.Whenever I go to the mall I feel absolutely drained and miserable, while my bargain hunting mother and sister absolutely thrive off it. Here's the reason - making decisions about what items to buy requires will power and drains energy! It's something called decision fatigue.The author presents a disturbing case study in which parole judges would be multiple times more likely to grant parole for prisoners they reviewed earlier in the day than later in the day. By the end of the day they were too tired to go through all the effort to review the info and make a good decision so they just erred on the side of caution!The overall message of the book is that we have a finite store of daily willpower. We use that same store for everything that requires will power, from going to the gym to finishing a difficult report. Willpower requires energy, specifically glucose, which is why it is important to refuel a bit before attempting something difficult. On a positive note, willpower can be strengthened and expanded with practice. Small successes build our confidence and ultimately our willpower - a concept known as self-efficacy.However, If you are trying to make lifestyle changes you have a greater chance of success by attempting one thing at a time. This approach allows you to concentrate our willpower on a new activity until it becomes habit and no longer requires much willpower.Bottom line - it's a really fun read and you might learn a few things about yourself along the way.See all 338 customer reviews...
