The Willpower Instinct: How Self-Control Works, Why It Matters, and What You Can Do to Get More of It


Description

The first book to explain the new science of self-control and how it can be harnessed to improve our health, happiness, and productivity. `The Willpower Instinct` is based on Stanford University psychologist Kelly McGonigal's wildly popular course `The Science of Willpower.` Informed by the latest research and combining cutting-edge insights from psychology, economics, neuroscience, and medicine, `The Willpower Instinct` explains exactly what willpower is, how it works, why it matters, and how to get more of it. For example, readers will learn: Willpower is a mind-body response, not a virtue. Too much self-control can be bad for your health. Giving up control is sometimes the only way to gain self-control. Willpower failures are contagious. `The Willpower Instinct` combines life-changing prescriptive, advice, and complementary exercises to help readers tackle goals ranging from losing weight to more patient parenting, less procrastination, better health, and greater productivity at work.

This book gives full scope to her tireless imagination through a year's worth of projects, fitted to the seasons, moods, and needs of knitters who would like to design their own work. Surprise, absurdity, and laugh-out-loud humor are the hallmarks of this "New York Times "bestselling author, and in "Killer Koalas from Outer Space," Griffiths offers up a collection of ridiculous stories featuring zombie kittens, rocket-stealing ants, and, of course, killer koalas from outer space."
