An interesting book. Hardy is telling you, that willpower alone won't do the job. The key seems to be to shape your environment so that you're less distracted, more focussed and things just fit in place. But at the end its nothing new, it is practically the same advice as "leave toxic environments" and after all, the first step is always to collect enough willpower to initiate the change. Nevertheless, this book can be recommended, if offers some special insights on the "if you really want it, you can achieve everything" mantra.
