Neuro-Discipline: Everyday Neuroscience for Self-Discipline, Focus, and Defeating Your Brain’s Impulsive and Distracted Nature

Neuro-Discipline is a science-based approach to overcoming laziness and procrastination by controlling the brain. Our brains are wired for speed, survival, and the present moment, not goal achievement. To overcome this, we must understand the brain’s imperatives and work with them. This layperson’s guide to self-discipline success provides over 20 actionable tips, based on biology and psychology. Peter Hollins, a bestselling author with over a dozen years of experience, offers insights into the two battling brains, how to trick the brain for action and productivity without working against it, the role of dopamine, how to talk to ourselves, design our environment to stay on track, reframing excuses, and creating a calm mind for ruthless execution. Self-discipline is forever, and we are meant to pursue our goals and find satisfaction and fulfillment. The ability to do unpleasant and uncomfortable things determines how our lives play out, so it’s crucial to control our brain and make self-discipline our new normal.
