Publisher's Synopsis
Control your brain so it doesn't control you. A science-based approach to getting things done and avoiding laziness and procrastination.
Our brains are not wired for goal achievement. They are wired only for speed, survival, and the present moment. It's time to defeat this primal tendency and make self-discipline your new normal.
Stop leaving tasks unstarted and/or unfinished. You're better than that.
Neuro-Discipline tells the tale of two battling brains, and why we are predisposed to laziness and energy conservation. Time after time, we take the path of least resistance to our detriment. The key to beating this is understanding the brain's imperatives and working with them. Neuro-Discipline is your layperson's guide to self-discipline success - just enough biology and psychology to give important context, while ensuring that you don't get stuck in the minutiae.
