Mind Over Matter: The Self-Discipline to Execute Without Excuses, Control Your Impulses, and Keep Going When You Want to Give Up

Stop self-defeating behaviors and act with intention. You'll thank yourself later. What you receive in life is dictated by your self-discipline. The more you have, the more you get. Will you settle for less than you desire? How to make willpower automatic, second nature, and habitual. Mind Over Matter is not a textbook on self-discipline, nor is it a gentle and drawn-out discussion. It is a toolbox to keep you in motion and in action towards your goals. It pulls no punches as it provides direct techniques to ensure that your actions match your intentions - a difficult task. Self-discipline is not about grinding it out from morning until night. Let's work smarter and accomplish more with less effort. Tools to get started, keep going, overcome distractions, and follow through every single time.
