Willpower Doesn't Work. Let Your Environment Work Instead

Stop thinking that willpower is the key to the door of a happy life! The harder you try to tighten the screws, forcing yourself to exercise, stick to a diet, or cram foreign words, the more crushing the breakdown will be. And don't think that you are the only one who is undisciplined. Everyone breaks down, everyone gives up, everyone feels guilty!

Benjamin Hardy, a doctor of organizational psychology, a successful blogger, and the father of three adopted children, suggests replacing unreliable willpower with a powerful "exoskeleton." Let your environment - your friends, social media, stressful circumstances, nutrition, and daily routine - push you towards your set goals.

Hardy's system is the perfect weapon against:

— self-sabotage;

— self-flagellation;

— chronic stress;

— loneliness on the path to success;

— fear of failure and rejection.
