Today's Book-Of-The-Day "Willpower: Rediscovering the Greatest Human Strength" by Roy F. Baumeister is amazing.
I just put it into my Top 150 best books list!
It says, “When psychologists isolate the personal qualities that predict “positive outcomes” in life, they consistently find two traits: intelligence and self-control. So far researchers still haven’t learned how to permanently increase intelligence. But they have discovered, or at least rediscovered, how to improve self-control.”
Everyone focuses on intelligence. The problem is, you can't change your IQ easily.
But self-control and willpower (what scientists call "self-regulation") are like muscles - they can get stronger over time.
My 67 Steps Program is a great way to start building up willpower. It's built around research that shows that it takes 66 days to form a habit, so by the time you're finished you'll have successfully built a positive habit.
One insight into increasing your willpower level: "What stress really does, is deplete willpower, which diminishes your ability to control those emotions.”
So cut stress like your life depended on it and watch your willpower effortlessly increase.
