In Willpower,
pioneering psychologist Roy F. Baumeister teams up with New York Times
science writer John Tierney to reveal the secrets of self-control.
Drawing on cutting-edge research, the authors explain that willpower
isn't just a metaphor—it’s a physical resource that functions like a
muscle.
What you’ll learn:
- The Science of Ego Depletion: Why we make poor choices when we’re tired or stressed.
- The Glucose Connection: How your body’s fuel affects your ability to stay disciplined.
- Practical Strategies: How to "train" your willpower, set effective goals, and use "pre-commitment" to bypass temptation.
