Review of 'Willpower' on 'Goodreads'
5 stars
Willpower is a deft exploration of the science behind self control. It's central theme, willpower is a finite resource that's used every time we make a conscious decision until it's depleted can be useful to anyone who's trying to find a way to strengthen their own willpower. Backed by study after study, including many conducted by one of the authors, the book offers a compelling case on the benefits of cultivating habits in our lives that we perform automatically in order to free up our decision making "muscle" for the things that really matter.
