Publisher's summary

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.

The Power of Self-Discipline 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 toward 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.

Peter Hollins has studied psychology and peak human performance for over a dozen years and is a best-selling author. He has worked with a multitude of individuals to unlock their potential and path toward success. His writing draws on his academic, coaching, and research experience.

Gain self-awareness, and cultivate your determination and tenacity. Immediate action has never been so easy.

  • Learn the main emotional, psychological, and biological obstacles you are battling.
  • Understand and break the five-step cycle of laziness that keeps you glued to the couch, unhappier than ever.
  • Confront yourself with a series of direct questions that force self-awareness and action.
  • Discover insightful formula for maximizing willpower and how to manipulate it.
  • Find out what your discipline style is.

Not bad

This wasn’t the best book I’ve ever read. To be honest I got hardly nothing out of it until the last few pages. I have no clue why though. I will go back and read it again later. Hopefully I will gain more from it.

Great book for clarifying what self-discipline is

If you’ve read 20 books on self-discipline, maybe you won’t like this one. I almost didn’t read it because some reviews said that it is all common-knowledge. Well, if all this is just common knowledge, than call me stupid, cause for me it was not!
Sure, some of the stuff the author says is common knowledge, but most of the book is a great mumbo-jumbo-free manual on changing your life for the better.
The only bad thing is the narrator and the recording quality. More attention should have been paid to it. The book seems to have been recorded while editing the content or something, as there are obvious insertions and quality differences throughout the book.

Don't let the donut make you say, oh, not another diet book!

I like srory line and the speakers voice made me feel like anything could be successful as long as I have a plan and am honest with myself and stop right in the midst of a potential problem and have a discussion with myself and realize what it looks like to see my goal
accomplish

Refresher to foundational success

Great read and will reread this book again. Applying new and old positive habits and eliminating excuses that keep me from success and having a balance life. I recommend this book to those that need to be refreshed and to those looking for structure and accountability components for winning.

Realistic ways to obtain your goals

I liked this Audio because it was easy to follow, offered helpful tips and wasn’t too long to lose interest. I would recommend it to anyone who is feeling lazy or stuck and want to achieve motivation and a deeper sense of why.
