Really enjoyed reading this book! Definitely a good buy and has a lot of really informative information that can be easily applied!!! Loved it

I feel like there was a lot of basic common sense information. I came away not really knowing a LOT more but there were a couple of tips that made stuck with me and have helped me be more self disciplined in a few areas of my life. I'll try some of the other tips out as well - but some just aren't practical.The book was riddled with typo's though. It wasn't too distracting but they could use a good proofreader/editor or something.I thought the "5-minute exercises to build self control" is a bit misleading because I expected the book to be more about that when, in reality, it was short chapters that each didn't really give practical exercises you can use in your every day life to help build self control.Overall it was an okay book.EDIT: I am upping it to 4 stars just because there was a chapter towards the beginning that talks about excuses for not doing things and how it affects you and THAT chapter really resonated for me and I have made huge strides in self discipline over the last few weeks specifically because it taught me to call out my excuses and do whatever I'm supposed to do anyways. I haven't missed a day of exercising or cleaning in over 2 weeks because I'll be like "I'm too stressed to clean" and then I'll be like "No that's a f***ing excuse you're GOING to clean" and then I'll clean. So props to that chapter!

The book is very well written by someone who KNOWS a lot of cool stuff about self-discipline. You will learn a lot! The book is very well organized throughout the chapters, and, even better, there is a nicely-prepared SUMMARY of each chapter at the end of the book. If you are struggling with self-discipline (as I was) this book will give you new insights on how to get on your way. Now, if you’ve finished reading this review, it’s time to go do what you know you should be doing! :)

Clear and straight to the point, follow through with action and you'll achieve self discipline and with it many more accomplishments.

An okay book. Pretty basic information, but a good reminder. SO many typos (misspellings, repeated words, etc.) which was a bit of a distraction and sometimes made me wonder if I understood the what the author was conveying.

I bought it because of ten doughnut but kept it because everything in it was so important and is important to everyday life

A must read once in a life time, your future self will thank you. Read my on kindle.Nice work Peter Hollis!
