Coexisting but conflicting needs create self-sabotaging behaviors. This is why we resist efforts to change, often until they feel completely futile. But by extracting crucial insight from our most damaging habits, building emotional intelligence by better understanding our brains and bodies, releasing past experiences at a cellular level, and learning to act as our highest potential future selves, we can step out of our own way and into our potential.

If you're like countless other women today, you probably feel overwhelmed, emotionally exhausted, anxious, stressed, frustrated, or unsatisfied. You may be taking on an abundance of emotional labor-tending to others' needs at the expense of your own. If you've spent your whole life trying to please and manage other peoples' experience, it's time to speak your truth out loud, stand in your own shoes, and live an authentic life-rather than just behave.

It's not you; it's your schedule. Does it sound like magic? It's not. We've all heard of circadian rhythms - those biological processes that give us jet lag and make us night owls or early birds. But few of us know just how profoundly these diurnal patterns affect our overall health. Bad habits - like skipping meals, squeezing in workouts, working late into the night and then trying to catch up on sleep during the weekend - disrupt our natural cycles. A growing body of research on chronobiology reveals just how sensitive the human body is to these rhythms all the way down to the genetic level.

Story
Almost every religion, spiritual practice, philosophy and person grapples with fear. The most repeated phrase in the Bible is “Be not afraid.” The ancient Greeks spoke of phobos, panic and terror. It is natural to feel fear, the Stoics believed, but it cannot rule you. Courage, then, is the ability to rise above fear, to do what’s right, to do what’s needed, to do what is true. And so it rests at the heart of the works of Marcus Aurelius, Aristotle, and CS Lewis, alongside temperance, justice, and wisdom.

Same old tired rehash of studies and common sense
After only 4 chapters I was hit with yet ANOTHER recap of the famous Stanford Marshmallow Experiment (with a promise of more to come) as well as the study where people who were allowed to eat chocolate chip cookies instead of radishes did better on a subsequent cognitive test (will power being a limited resource argument) and heard amazing advice like... don't bring junk food that you don't want to eat into your house in the first place. This was followed by what is arguably a contradiction...increase your will power / self-discipline by exercising it (the frontal cortex I think) like a muscle to make it stronger! Ok,uh, then maybe I SHOULD buy junk food and practice resisting it?
Even a hint of an original thought or concept or approach and I would have given at least another chapter but.... no....just... can't. So many books building chapters off of already over-quoted and over-explained historical events and experiments as if they just discovered something fresh and ground breaking - and this is one of the most flagrant (again, after 4 chapters). I expect many more instances would have followed in later chapters. How about the one where the guy burned his ships so his army had no choice but to fight and win because their escape option was removed? Did I guess right? Was that one quoted later in the book as well?

If you are well-read, you've already read this one
I was disappointed, but I was also looking for another book and downloaded this one by accident. If you haven't read many self-help books, this may be a helpful, quick read for you. But if you are well-read, you've already been exposed to all this research, and there are no additional personal anecdotes added to the mix, after the introduction. It's not horrible, there's just no point in reading a summary of the 20 other books and research studies you've already read, and he simply summarized here. Thanks, but no thanks.

worth every credit or dollar you spend on this boo
I was feeling so unmmotivated and unhappy at my job. After searching for a book that would pick me up and change my thoughts I'm glad I chose this book. I'm still at my current job but this helped understand that just because I'm feeling a certain way doesn't mean I have to immediately act on my emotions. discipline yourself. his stories and research done on discipline and habit forming goes well beyond the tools needed to change your life.

Excellent book on Self-discipline
The author provides concise, clear and doable advice. It really opened my mind and made me realize what I have been doing wrong and why some attempts at attaining goals have failed. He provides well researched information that supports his views.
Totally worth it. Every chapter is a mini study on the subject to help you expand if you are serious about conquering yourself once you arrive to the conclusion that YOU are responsible for your own successes and failures.
