Willpower doesn't work

Book • 2018

In 'Willpower Doesn't Work,' Benjamin Hardy argues that willpower is not a reliable tool for achieving success.

Instead, he advocates for the power of environment in shaping behavior and outcomes.

The book provides strategies on how to create an environment that supports your goals, such as removing distractions, investing in personal growth, and using 'forcing functions' to ensure desired behaviors become automatic.

Hardy draws on psychological theories and the experiences of successful individuals to illustrate how adapting to and designing one's environment is crucial for personal and professional success.
