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

5.0

What an excellent book. I had to read it much faster than I would've liked because it was due at the library and I couldn't renew it but I'll definitely be picking it up again so I can read it while spacing out the chapters to implement the exercises. It was nice learning the science behind procrastination: I recognized things I do in pretty much every single chapter of this and I'm going to try some of her suggestions for overcoming them. Maybe I'll write a review charting how that works out for me in a couple of months? :) 5 stars
