Interesting and insightful…
We have programmed habits, thought processes, systems, etc. into our lives that are so embedded we never even question ourselves why we do it. Sadly, we even continue to follow those same structures when we know we will be unhappy with the outcome (because we’ve tried it before, several times). But in this book you are forced to look at the things you do both consciously and subconsciously, and break down why we do so. You will learn that there is more science behind our habits than we think.
A fair warning to all readers though, you must be prepared for your ego to be checked when reading this book. Be ready to practice radical transparency with yourself, be open to change, and a whole lot of eye-opening reasoning.
