One of the most comprehensive books about self-control and willpower. Explains willpower using insights from economics, psychology, neuroscience, and medicine, and provides tested strategies to help you improve self-control, overcome distraction, temptation and procrastination. It's clear, engaging and humorous. There's a nice blend of scientific/research background, detailed examples and practical tips/strategies. But the writing can be roundabout at times and there’s a fair amount of repetition and overlapping ideas. Would've also preferred if Mcgonigal also helped to connect the dots more. And I like that she didn't rely on 1 basic scientific idea or framework, but explores the topic using a range of concepts from psychology, economics and neuroscience. What it covers: • The 3 components of willpower (I will, “I won’t” and I want) that determine if you can exercise self-control when you need it. • Why you lose self-control due to the effects of your brain and body, how willpower works like muscles, how we give ourselves the license to sin, how we confuse desire and happiness, how giving in to indulgences makes us feel worse, why we make bad long-term decisions, how willpower is affected by social influences, and why suppressing/denying your feelings or impulses will only backfire. • What you can do about each of the factors above, including a list of practical exercises and strategies to help you develop self-awareness and address real-life challenges.
