About this listen
The bestselling fitness and self-improvement book for breaking through mental resistance and barriers, building unshakeable discipline, and keeping your goals alive when things get tough.
Fitness isn’t everything. But everything is harder if you aren’t fit.
Because the muscle and strength that you gain from working out is less important than the person you become by working out:
● You become a person who understands that growing into the best version of themselves necessarily includes getting into great shape.
● You become a person who never underestimates the power of simply believing in themselves and always looks for reasons to bet on their hand.
● You become a person who realizes they can achieve far more than they thought they were capable of.
And that’s why I wrote this positive lifestyle habits book:
To help you become that person by sharing insights from scientific research, compelling stories, and practical strategies for staying motivated when setbacks, failure, and self-doubt makes you want to give up.
Here’s a sneak peek of what you’ll find inside this motivation book:
● The "What, When, Where, If, Then" formula that will rewire your thinking for more consistency inside and outside of the gym.
● Three simple questions that will reveal your true "why" for fitness and unlock a wellspring of motivation that will keep you going even when it's hard.
● How to stop sabotaging your progress with complaining and negativity and develop a solution-oriented mindset that empowers you to take action.
● Warren Buffett's "2 List Strategy" for prioritizing your goals, eliminating distractions, and achieving laser focus and maximum productivity.
● How to use “productive pessimism” to avoid what scientists call the positivity paradox and cultivate a balanced mindset that will turn self-doubt into self-belief.
● And more
The bottom line is getting fit is like doing anything that most people fail at.
It's harder than you think it'll be. It'll take longer than you think it'll take. You'll make way more mistakes than you want to make.
But there’s also this:
You can't fail unless you give up.
So, if you’re feeling overwhelmed in your fitness; struggling with laziness, procrastination, or self-doubt; or trying to reignite your passion for working out …
… and if you want strategies for developing a resilient mindset that will empower you to stick with your fitness for the long haul …
… then you want to read this self discipline book for women and men today.

Amazing introduction to Audibles
This audible is absolutely fantastic, the main concept of how workout motivation is just a branch on a tree of everyday motivation in whatever you do is the main message that I have taken away from this audible.
There are so many interesting stories, quotes, recommended reading and interacted task after each chapter. I listen to this before I start a run or a workout just because I have felt that the chapter I am currently on is really relatable to my current journey. an example of this is the chapter that mentioned about the Navy seal telling the guy to do 100 press up although they could only do 10!! But yeah 40% whenever you want to give up you still have 40% left to give that will stay with me forever !!!
cracking work Mike!!!

Better than expected
The title didn't do the book justice. Thought it might just be cheesy fitspo quotes. But so many good scientific, psychological insights. Especially appreciated the advice that talking too much about our goals makes us feel like we've already achieved them, and too much comparison to others diminishes the optimism and gratitude that's key to emotional wealth. Led me to delete Instagram and kill a lot of my social media timesucks. Also discovered the joy of a new morning routine which is waking up early to an audio book plus a long walk.
