When you want to get up for an early flight, what do you do? You set an alarm. If you want to benchpress your body weight, how do you start? You slowly build up your muscles so you can achieve your goal. And when you've got a big deadline looming, what's the best way to handle it? Plan out your time.If you're like most people, you know all these things are true, but at some point or another, you've dropped the ball: You've missed a flight because you cut it too close, you've overestimated what you can physically do, hurting yourself in the process, or you've tried to cram in a month's worth of work into a frantic forty-eight-hour panic fest. Yes?You're not alone. Even Aristotle knew this when he said, "I count him braver who overcomes his desires than him who conquers his enemies; for the hardest victory is over self."You want the secret to success. You want to take control of your life and achieve your goals. We all do. Since research has repeatedly shown that self-control is like a muscle, think of this book as your personal trainer to build up your skills and strength. Self-Control in 7 Steps offers the proven mental tricks, organizational strategies, and tools to transform the bored, unfocused, and lazy in all of us.
