Everyone gets excited about the idea of self-improvement. But when it comes time to actually put in the work over the long haul, things change. We find excuses. We don't follow through.
This video explores how you can stay motivated and on track long after the initial excitement of improvement has passed. It covers a few surprising ways to better manage your own willpower so that you stick to your resolutions and become the person you want to be.
When you've mastered your willpower and learned how to stay motivated even through arduous tasks, achieving the goals you've set for yourself becomes much, much easier. Enjoy :-)

I started guitar at age 48 in 1998. Now can play guitar, drums, bass guitar, and piano. Am in two bands.
Music is easy now. Hardest was to start music study project.
+Bob Owen
Would be interested to know how you started guitar. Logistically... what guitar did you get? Electric? How did you learn? books? classes? when did you practice?
Thanks!
Seth
+Seth Markowitz I am a self taught guitarist and I can tell you the thing that gave me the most energy was wanting to play the songs I liked. I started with playing chords and singing. Go to ultimate-guitar.com there you can easily learn any song you wanna learn. Its a database where everybody can make contributions. In the search bar you can enter the name of the song and find chords. You'll have the lyrics with the chords standing above the lyrics. With your cursor you can hover over the chord symbol and see how it is to be played.
Learn scales so you can play solos.
The best lesson is to get lost in playing.
+Seth Markowitz Im also self taught in playing guitar and i agree with DTMfun that learning things you like to play rather than getting bored with the instrument by forcing yourself to play chords and scales all day might make you say nvm i hate this. Picking acoustic/electric? Decide by looking at the bands you enjoy and see what they play to match their sound or style.. but you can also get an electric acoustic guitar if you really cant decide.. And when you begin your fingers will hurt like crazy so start with light strings instead of medium or heavy (just ask the person at the store to help) You can go to sites like the one he listed and many sites have "play along songs" that show you where to place your fingers on the fretboard exactly in conjunction with the song. As you learn you will gradually learn the names of chords and i think this is the best way to self teach :3 Oh and FYI dave grohl of nirvana/foo fighters self taught and still cant read music so dont get discouraged if you find that it isnt a strength of yours. hope this helped, good luck!
Thats fucking inspiring.
That is amazing! This for all the people using their age as an excuse.
When you're a good presenter, you don't need jump cuts or fancy editing. Awesome job man!
+Orgil Batzorig I did see cuts tho. He's a good presenter nonetheless!
I feel like they're more-so referring to the people who seem to not be very good with talking and end up jump cutting like every couple seconds. xD He only did it when starting a new point.
Magnimazing True!
yeah, like my videos if I take the time... ums, ahh, looking away. he is so focused, clear, concise
True, though i believe that this video could have been shorter
Honestly expected a hollow, buzzfeed-esque list, and was pleasantly surprised. Great tips, great video!
+617Brah Haha, well I'm glad to have come in above expectations this time around :-)
+Big Daddy D this guy is legit.
Things that drain willpower:
1. Forcing yourself doing things that you don't want to but have to.
2. Suppressing emotion
3. Deliberating back and forth when making decisions.
5 tips for setting up a lifestyle that drains willpower the least in order to conserve your willpower for where you need the most
1. Make decision quickly.
2. Set up hard rules.
3. Change your environment so that it supports you.
4. Prepare for the hard situation before hand. Set up plans to deal with the situation.
5. Connecting your preexist identity to the action you want to take. Make your goal a part of who you are.
Great video! Love the examples particularly about yourself applying the tips. btw you skipped tip number 4
Wait was there a number 4?
1) Make decisions more quickly
2)set up rules
3) Change your environment to be more supportive
4) ?
5) Prep for hard situations
6) Allign goal with your Identity
I was writing them down and noticed 4 was missing as well. Let's claim that number four is to make a schedule of everything you want to do finished before you go to sleep. That way when you wake up and start your day all you have to do is look at your schedule and just go along with it. Keeps you from forgetting things and you won't have to make decisions because they are already made
+Bryan Collins Yeah, I'll stick with you. this is an awesome number 4 🙌
yeah i noticed this immediately, obviously this dufus doesnt review what he makes, by bryan's suggestion is good
Yeah Nah, he is a rad dude that makes a lot of great content for free.
Its all g
Yup, that one inconsequential mistake totally invalidates everything he's ever presented in all of his videos and makes him a dufus. Sounds legit.
Waking up in the morning drains like half my bar
+AndroidDoctorr Hahahaha I know the feeling
It is even harder for me to go early to bed.. than to get up (netflix drains)
6 things, though number 4 seems to be missing! :
1. Make decisions more quickly (2:27)
Just the process of getting stuck in decisions drains your willpower.
2. Set up hard and fast rules in your life (2:58)
Hard rules that cannot be violated in your head actually gives tremendous freedom to spend your willpower on other things that matter.
3. Set up an environment so it supports you (3:46)
5. Prep for scenarios beforehand. (4:32)
Think ahead for things that might throw you off and prepare an answer before it begins.
6. Identity (5:32)
Some kind of self-image helps make some decisions easier.
There are not many channels I see very often but your Channel is a mandatory stop, concise, fast and useful. Thanks man
+Wesley Pimentel I appreciate that! Hopefully they keep getting better :-)
+Charisma on Command Yeah, I wish there was internet an your videos around when I was younger!
If I could make a suggestion to make your Videos better: add Text. Just keywords when you say them, so that we have a visual support to remember it.
Thanks for the feedback!
No big deal. Thank you for the good video :)
I think it's better without text, just to make it confusing for you
Text supports the speech and gives visual clues so the information can be imprinted on both your visual and hearing mind. Its much easier.
QCube Hahaha, this is exactly what he uses now. Good suggestions
I never expect that Edward Scissorhands will motivate me sometime!! :P :D
+Lou lol
This makes so much sense to me. This is why people who are going through stressful situations in life tend to do worse in school or to gain weight/lose weight/ lose friends. They don't have the energy and willpower to put into those things and therefore, decline in them.
This is a beautiful, informative, on-point talk. Even from a scientific point of view it is hard to integrate the concepts you are talking about - ego depletion, identity restructuring, experience modelling. And that's on a theoretical level. It's even harder to produce models which allow for accessible real-life solutions of these problems. Fortunately you are doing just that. Thank you for bridging theory and practice in such effective and meaningful way. What you do is rare.
Video resume:
- Willpower is a finite resource:
- learn what depletes it
- learn what replenishes it
- learn how to train it
- Approach willpower in a balanced way:
- exercise it, so it's capacity is increased
- reconstruct your environment and lifestyle so you have to use it less (in view of your current goals)
- Tips:
1. Make decisions quickly
2. Set up hard rules
3. Transform your environment in vision of your own becoming and goals
4.?
5. Prep for the hard situations beforehand (devise strategies by analysing past failures)
6. Consciously shape your Identity (as it is the most important factor to determine automatic actions)
Hey I think it was a great video. Thanks a lot. I have a small suggestion though, can you do like a little summary of what you talked about at the end of your video (like the main points) because it gets mixed up in my mind sometimes and it's nice to have everything clear and precise.
I'd like that too. Good point.
*Will power is more of a resource rather than a characteristic. You lose it through decisions and emotions and selfcontrol. You might gain it back through sleep/food/fill in the blank. Longer decision making = more will drain, regardless of the difficulty of the question at hand.
*Make an effort to make decision making a smoother endeavor (s). Basically, fight smarter not tougher.
*Change your environment so it supports you and you body and health and emotional health. Even, pick people in your life that don't consistently drain your willpower.
*Prep for hard situations ahead. (Make decision making easier AHEAD of time: that way you don't lose energy in that moment).
*Changing habits and identity is a lot tougher than going through a routine. Often times, it is more efficient to connect your past habit/identity to your next one for a smoother transition, a less emotionally costly transition.
***** thank you!
What I do is taking notes during the video, so that I always have a nice summary even weeks after.
manel kh I agree. A quick summation at the end of the video will refresh all of the points in your hippocampus and bring the video to a perfect close.
I think this guy's wide cheeks and exuberant smile might add to his charismatic effect. Neat channel, keep up the awesome work! :D
at this point i dont even watch your vids for the advice anymore. i watch the. because of your energy. from the facial expressions to the hand motions/gestures to the actual focus/passion/effort behind your delivery. youre extremly attractive and thats basically why im here
Tip number 4 was the best of all. Am I right?
The concept of willpower as a resource is currently being scientifically challenged. We don't really know for sure whether it is or not anymore, as we have repeated experiments and found different results. In fact, an experiment was done and they found that people who thought of willpower as a limited resource gave up on tasks much sooner than people who thought of willpower as infinite.
Pigmalion effect
Hold yourself higher and you may fail but you will achieve more overall
YES, EXACTLY THIS! Willpower is an emotion, it fluctuates like any emotion, but it's only "finite" for you if you believe it to be so!
Nir Ayala talks about this In his book Indistractable. If you want to know more, I believe the psychologist who conducted the experiment is named Carol Dweck.
Have you heard of the book deep work? It's about intense focus, and how to concentrate in our distracted world. When most people are asked about when they're are happiest. The typical answer is something like "on a beach with a margarita." The author uses a lot of research to support that rather the happiest moments are when we are completely focused. I find it extremely interesting and i'd love to hear your thoughts on the book in a video like this.
Thanks for sharing that!
Hey man put a link up on this video's screen to your identity video. After you say '' it's a big one but identity is a really really strong way to stop draining your own will power'' following up is really important because most people forget and have short attention span lol
Gah!!! One of my non-negotiables is watching a Charisma on Command video daily and taking notes. I can't begin to tell you the drastic change in how the outside world perceives me. As a black man there is a stigma in society that I am a person to be feared. Your videos have opened up my body language and communication skills to where people are approaching me to strike up a conversation. Your videos are life changing. Thank you.
Damn bro, I do the saaaaame! Watching 1 vid daily, and taking notes. This is vid #29! Mark my words, I'll finish all one day!
Thank you Charlie!! You are great!! This is what I learned and got out of it. Fabulous!!!
Exert more will power, to obtain more will power. Set up an environment, system, life style, that helps.. Make decisions faster. Set apart specific rules!!!! Change, transform your environment so that it can support you. Also select friends, people that will support you in that environment. Prep for the hard decisions. Think of possible distractions and prepare yourself to resist. Set up a plan. Identity: I am the type of person that loves order and structure.
+Ely Suarez °Wow! I'm so happy to see you absorb all that. Keep rockin!
Hey Charlie,
I've read "Willpower" as well and I love the way you've not only pick out the most salient ideas, but made them so actionable and practical with great examples. Keep up the awesome videos man!
I must say that i have watched a few of your videos and have been captivated all day. and already im seeing an improvement in the way with the people that have stopped by. i will endeavour to continue implementing these tips. such a wonderful service you are providing. thank you so much
+Nani Sims Glad you found them helpful. Cheers :-)
one of the few channels worth subscribing to!
For me fighting the urge to play a video game and focusing on things that will make me successful is what I've been working towards. In the past I've been able to put tremendous focus and have had great success on PC games like League of Legends and Chess, and I want to put that great energy into something useful. I've been using that awesome energy for most of my life, but playing games has gotten me no where and a hiring company doesn't give a crap whether you're good at a video game or not.
In fact, there is much debate about this "finite" willpower of ours. Many studies have been conducted about willpower, but about 10% of them stated that we have a finite willpower, the rest were failures. It's interesting because those people who believe they've got finite willpower, actually have finite willpower, and those who think It's just a matter of mindset, they have on average, more willpower. Strange how the human mind works. I stopped believing in these studies, I prefer studying myself to find what works and what does not.
He is right about everything guys. Specially the environment part. You can't imagine how much easier it is to start practicing playing guitar if you NEVER stow it in its bag. If i just leave it there at the couch ready to grab, I grab it. If not, i won't have to willpower to take it out from the bag and play it.
Basically preparation is half the battle.
Good an thorough preparation can make short work of your hardest obstacles.
Watching old CoC vids are a trip
Life-changing video! I've been trying to motivate myself with a point system, where I have to achieve a certain amount of hours (studying, exercising, etc.) each week. But now I realize all this does is drain my willpower bar because I have to spend each day deciding which things to do (and then hating myself for brushing them off).
Time to redo my strategy and set a daily routine.
Another good book about willpower is "The Willpower Instinct". It takes a closer look at the outside influences on willpower, as well as the foundations of willpower itself. Definitely recommended, I've personally listened to the 6-7h audiobook in one go!
I had a feeling I needed to leave home to improve my motivation and willpower. My family are very lazy, negative and stressed people. They're not inspiring or ambitious. I didnt realise how much it affected my own thinking growing up, as I started waking up when everyone else did, or settling for less, and accepting low standards. But deep down I have a fire in my belly and I keep suppressing it. Maybe I should leave but Im scared I'll still be the same person.
Fear is the thing that stops people from living their dreams, but once you leave, you'll instantly be like 'wow, I can't believe I actually left. I didn't think I would because I had all these doubts, but now I've done it. Who knows what else I can do?
Thank you for the support :)
+Ruqayat Hime No problem! You just keep that fire in your belly burning, then one day you'll be able to light up the world!
So...technically you're afraid that lack of motivation is hardwired in your brain because you grew up with them, right? Nature/nurture kind of thing. Well, the fact alone that you're noticing something is not right with the situation should mean it's not hardwired. Don't worry, there are plenty of people who do different things from what they saw in their family environment and they start out the same as you. Noticing something isn't quite right and then changing that thing for themselves, away from their family. Haha, you're like the black sheep of the family, going against the norm, but don't worry, it's not uncommon and every family has the odd ball. In your case it can certainly be the fact that you're the most hyper and are doing a lot of stuff, which is great.
it's like you know me, Im truly the oddball of not only my family but my community. Im still on the fence on my next big decision, but it really helps to read comments like this. I guess they say at the end of your life, its regrets of not venturing out that people have often. I hope to do more, but Im definitely not hyper haha introverted but ambitious yes :)
I hadn't heard that you would indeed make other videos about this topic, about identity, and now that I know that I'm eager to be watching the next video about that ! Of course all the other videos are really interesting too, but my problem is really time management and willpower. I have started to implement the "change your environment" by the way, and I'm pretty confident it's going to be effective. I'm going to set the inviolable rules too. The fact that you look so dynamic in your videos kind of gives energy to the viewer, and encourages him/her to get into what he really wants ! Really good video !
TAI LOPEZ *IS BACK* IN HIS BACKYARD! Cause people always ask him..
KNOWLEDGE!
+BleuBear you mean fake rented backyard
...as billionaire Warren Buffet says,"the more you learn-the more you earn".
Even if rented, thats still huge, you know how much a villa rental costs ?
This guy's awesome, I'm high into my 60s but learn a lot from this young man. Thanks for generous training.
You should flip your hair to the other-side each cut and see if anyone notices.
You summarized that book VERY well.
Excellent Video! Thank you for youre very helpful tips!!
Love that, thanks!
:D :)
Got here through procrastination, left feeling motivated!
Lucky to find your channel last week when I just started to change my lifestyle! Now I watch at least one clip everyday :-) It's like a concentrated 10 minutes saves me from reading a book for hours
I like it that you speak fast as it keeps me on my toes
one of my fav channels of all times
My understanding:
Willpower- the finite stuff that allows you to do things you dont want to do
- making decisions decrease this (no matter what the decision is)
Discipline- the trainable skill that decreases willpower consumption when you do things
Habits- automatic programming that bypasses willpower consumption
What slightly confuses me is that by exercising willpower, your reserves increase. However, this does not seem to be the complete picture because if mere exercise of will increases reserves, then we would not have the problem in the first place since the assumption is that my constant exercise of willpower to resist sugary foods will eventually lead to me successfully resisting, but this is not usually the case.
Maybe situations where you "fail to resist" in exercising willpower actually sets you back?
Great video, as always! The point you make about identity is spot on - it's almost like a cheat code to willpower. It doesn't matter how much of your "willpower bar" you've already used, if you hold to your identity you will find the strength to do what needs to be done.
Just one comment I'd like to make - on the subject of willpower being a finite resource, I entirely disagree. It's the EASE of exerting willpower that's finite and becomes more drained (as you described) throughout your day. Even when your willpower has been drained, you CAN still make a conscious choice to do what you know is right - it will be much harder to do, but you can still do it. The decision is always in your hands.
Self-discipline > willpower > mind > matter
Motivation to start a business? Bro am just tryna do ma essay
This was very helpful! Thank you!
This is some of the best advice I have ever gotten. SO many things I want to implement in my life!
+wheelz191 Whoah! The best?! You don't know how much that means to me. Will give you more of my best. :)
+Charisma on Command Honestly i find these videos super inspiring. Keep at it!
You should do one on what you do best: Talking before a camara.
Your speech is eloquent and fluid, and it feels natural and honest.
+Rafael Rivas I appreciate that! There are still some points I'd like to get better in so I am going to give it a few months and codify everything I learn along the way before doing a video on speaking on camera
Awesome! Keep leading the way.
Few people cover these topics and fewer do it as well.
Just came here from the theon identity video. It's really interesting to take a step into metacognition through your videos, especially since I've built an identity for myself that's very much based around the idea of having infinite or near infinite willpower like a superpower, and to say it's worked miracles doesn't even begin to do it justice.
Hey man, i just found your channel a couple weeks ago and I already have to thank you. I am pursuing my doctorates in pharmacy but I always wondered why I had absolutely zero willpower. This explains alot. Heh I thought i knew everything but shit, some of the simplest things in life you learn from other people. Thanks again man, I think this is what I needed to finish this damn program.
your channel is the best. thank you so much for this !
I enjoyed it! And thanks for spreading the positive in you!
°Will definitely keep going
I ended my twitter addiction by placing the app on another screen in a collection instead of on my main home screen. Did WONDERS
These 6 tips were so helpful and so right on. I have found those things are the things that helped me to make changes for me and my family too. Thank you for putting this out so well, so clearly!
You are saying really cool things! Thank you!
hey man, i find myself taking something from every single one of your videos. Keep doing what you're doing, it's great!
I've seen the whole video.
And well, you are the MAN, an awesome and truthful guy.
Thank you for sharing your experience with us.
Man I swear I love your videos. This is my favorite
Yes please, expand on the point on identity. I see that certain things tend to be so effortless for certain types of people and after watching your video, I believe it is this point number 6 that makes them and their actions sync, such that they have no desire for anything else that can set them off course and only have eyes for the ones which can be for the betterment of that identity which they perceive themselves to be. Looking forward to your follow-up video. Thank you for sharing the main gist of the book!
Dude I can't with this channel.. it's too amazing
A good addition to point 6 is an exercise by tony robbins, where you write down a Goal/habit that should become your identity and also 2 tables. One table is for all the bad things that will happen in the next months/years, if you don't change or achieve that goal. On the other table, you write a list of all the good things that will happen, if you follow through and achieve that goal. Pin it somewhere visible, so you can review it everyday.
+Marius Smith Yeah, Tony's stuff is great not just for behavioral change, but for identity level change as well. Great addition!
Amen! You're killing it, bro!
Charlie, you have helped me so much. Especially today with your discussion regarding willpower. Thank you!!
Hey, even though I've only watched your videos for short amount of time, they have already been helping me quite a lot! Thank you, and keep up the great work!
I am liking the idea of making rules that are not to be broken. Scott and I have made some rules but we often break them because it is just too hard. We are needing to just make those decisions and stick with them. Since there are two of us, we should hold each other accountable. Thanks for a great video.
Ren
It's amazing just how much decision making drains our mental energy.
I. Willpower is a FINITE Resource. (Imagine a video game Life Bar)
-Willpower is depleted when we spend time making DECISIONS and when we exert EMOTIONAL CONTROL.
-Willpower can be strengthened by exercising it.
II. Key Takeaway: Set up your life so that you drain the least willpower throughout your day.
-6 Tips to Conserve Willpower
1. Make decisions more QUICKLY.
2. Set up hard and fast RULES in your life. (i.e. Listing what you can/cannot eat in line with your health goals.)
3. Change your ENVIRONMENT so that it supports you. (i.e. Removing junk food from your house, hanging out with friends with the same goals.)
4. ***Charlie Missed this one. Let's be creative and put in our own. My personal tip would be to STUDY the decisions of 'experts' we respect in certain fields in their everyday lives and mirror those who have achieved the results we want for ourselves. :)
5. Prepare for the hard situations beforehand. (Anticipate situations where willpower will be tested and strategize how to handle it well beforehand.)
6. Decisions that are in line with your IDENTITY drains little to no willpower. (Create a strong enough reason WHY and connect to the action)
Thank you very much for the video! Keep up the excellent work!
Your videos have been so helpful as I procrastinate studying! Thanks!
Wow, you're such a mentor. Thank you!
Brilliant video thank you very much.
Thank you, Charlie!
Thanks so much for your videos!! I'm sure you are helping a large amount of people, including myself! Keep up the good work!
It's just me, or there is no number 4?
Lol, I rewound the video 3 times looking for number 4. Glad I'm not crazy :)
I think number 4 is what he explained as a number 3 sub-part, that is "being with people who share similar goals".
Thanks, Satyam S, I think you're right. That makes sense.
Thank you very much for this awesome insightful video! Just my 2 cent, after watching this video, one adjustment I will try to make at work is to place all meetings (as much as I can) in the morning, so that when my willpower is lessened in the afternoon, my tasks will be simpler to deal with
I love your channel. A few of the things you say on your videos are what I tell myself anyway, but hearing it come from a trusted source just makes me feel confident in going about it that way.
could you please do a separate video on how to connect your existing identity to a new one that you want to be? Thanks
So, that's the reason why I feel drained even day after playing episode of Life is strange! I spend soooo much on decisions in that game. The game is so awesome, tho.
°Sounds interesting
i really like the personal development videos personally and appreciate any future editions you might do, its something that ive struggled with for some time now and havent been able get the wheels in motion. thanks
I grew a lot of willpower by reading Think and Grown Rich by Napoleon Hill. Highly recommended. Just by reading the first chapter I felt an energy to fulfill my procrastinating desires. This video is extremely helpful as well, much credit.
Loved this quick recap and especially the real life examples. Yes I agree that the topic of identity is worth more attention as it is probably the deepest strongest factor to willpower. People have self-limiting views of their identity and changing that is super hard.
+EPSTomcat11 Yeah, identity is basically the holy grail. It's incredible the amount of pull it has on our actions. I'm experimenting with a bunch of ways to influence it and will hopefully have some good findings soon
+Charisma on Command That would be amazing - I don't think many coaches have a lot of solutions to offer in that area - at least on TH-cam :) Thank you so much for all your efforts!
love your videos! binge watching them!
~ Glad you're loving them Annelise!
The One Thing is also a key book!!
I've also just bought 'How to Master the Mind' by Buddhist Master G.K. Gyatso- which may coincide with your mind mastery book.
More sleep DEFINITELY helps with Willpower, you're right.
Thanks for another great video 🙂
How to win friends and influence people. the best book
dude! What an awesome channel! I've already watched so many videos on this subject, but i've never seen such a great summary of the most critical points. Your other videos are cool too :)
wow. i didn't even realize that i was doing these things to make positive changes in my life. this video made me feel so much better about myself lol that i managed to figure it out in my own way.
Wow! I've never heard will power explained this way. I never thought that we are draining our will power. Thanks very much for making this video. 😀
This video is really helpful! And the last thing you said about changing your identity is a total game changer. I'd love to watch you elaborate on that!! Anyway, great job on this one!
The art in the background is amazing, I would love to own pieces like that. And the advice was awesome
Thank you kind sir!
Just to sum everything up:
1. Make decisions quickly.
2. Set up hard and fast rules in your life.
3. Change your environment so it supports you.
4.
5. Prep for the hard situations beforehand.
6. Identity.
I would love a series on Think and grow Rich
Book discussion / review is good.
Happy to hear that!
This channel is so addictive ❤
There's debate in the scientific community about whether or not will power if finite or not. There's been some studies showing the placebo of telling others, telling yourself that its infinite, and how that correlates to an increase in "energy" toward will power. It seems like a mental thing.
Discipline.
Love your channel, btw.
I apologize, I was taking notes, and I missed #4, was that "surroun yourself with people that share your goals?"
that seemed to be a subset of 3, because it is part of your environment, this dufus missed point 4
yeah...i missed #4 too. it wasnt actually numbered in the video...
You're not the only one, I don't think he said number four.
Your videos are awesome. I pop on here every day or two for a boost, you always have something interesting to watch that helps me be a better me. Also, a lot of your videos aren't dated. I could view them as you come out with them or binge watch vids from last year without feeling like I'm watching an "old" episode. You're great at this, at providing information for your viewers to actively use when they aren't watching... It's almost like you plan to have people thinking about your channel when they are away from youtube. #genius
He will definitely keep going
great stuff man! really liked the mentions of the last point regarding holding on to a (often selfimposed) identity. have been tring to bring that point across with some of my closes friends who suffer from that. they really struggle with letting that go...
1. Make decisions quickly and stick to the path
2. Set up hard and fast rules that you can stick to
3. Change your environment so that it supports you.
4. Prepare for the hard situations beforehand
5. Tap on your identity and connect that to the action you want to take.
Thanks. Hope more people see this.
Will definitely keep going :-)
thanks, I've really really struggled for a while with getting anything done. I hope I will be able to fix this and get where I want
love the book series!
do more!!
