Learn to take control of your life through an in-depth understanding of motivation

What is motivation? Why do we feel totally paralyzed to do certain things, and utterly unable to quit others? Too many people conclude, falsely, that they are just lazy or lacking in willpower. But what they lack is a correct understanding of their own minds, of motivation, and the way that it operates.

This audiobook is a self-help manual and a rigorous analysis of the psychology of motivation. It will teach you to stop procrastinating, kick your addictions, circumvent laziness, take control of your actions, and achieve your goals, by thoroughly understanding the way your mind works.

In it, you’ll learn:

  • What the nature of motivation is, on its deepest psychological level
  • Why addiction and procrastination are two sides of the same coin
  • Why there’s no fundamental difference between a physical and psychological addiction
  • Why willpower is rarely the solution to anything
  • Why and how emotions motivate

You’ll also learn 15 powerful strategies for motivating yourself, why they work, and how to apply them to your own life. By the end of this audiobook, you’ll possess all the tools you need to take firm control of your daily existence.

great buy

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.

Many of us unconsciously know of the pain/pleasure principle of motivation. It's very intuitive to learn about because we can all think of almost exactly how it applies to our own lives.
This book does a good job of establishing what that principle is, though it's examples are very boring and can be long winded at times. Narrator does a good job, but is way more prim and proper than anyone I'd like to just have a conversation with. 4 stars

Very insightful and scientifically based

As a solo entreprenuer, this book really put a lot of things in perspective for me! I have a whole new outlook on human actions or lack there of after listening.

Love this book!
