Roy Baumeister's Willpower was an enjoyable book, and fascinating for what it says about us as human beings. The most fascinating point is this. Willpower, self-control, free-will, whatever you would like to call it, is a relative capacity, and it is more or less controlled by certain features of our physiology, and it is particularly tied to glucose. Think of glucose in the body as the fuel that lets you run, or gives you self-control or free will. When this fuel gets burned up through the activities you engage in throughout your day, your level of self-control decreases. You make bad or hasty decisions, you get angry at a loved one, you don't do something as well as you should have, etc. And it's all because you are burning up the fuel that powers your body. The book is very good and practical about what to do to avoid your depletion of self-control, and it involves getting a reasonable amount of sleep and eating well throughout your day. 'Well' in 'eating well' is the operative word, by the way, because what gives your body a good dose of glucose that will serve your body best is healthy food that contains sugars but that does not just give your body a quick dose of sugar. Things like energy drinks, for instance, can increase your glucose levels, but they also cause a big crash because these are the kinds of sugars that burn quickly. Slow-burning sugars are the ticket. The book also gives other practical advice about kinds of exercises you can do throughout your day to increase your willpower. Perhaps it's a truism, but one easy way is setting clear goals, sticking with a standard to meet those goals, and rewarding yourself for the big and little goals met proportionate to the size of the goals are all ways you can maintain adequate levels of self-control and not use too much energy worrying or involved in trivial matters. Pretty good book.
The writing style reminds me greatly of The Power of Habit in that the vast majority of the book is anecdotal and case study summation. In fact, I could quite easily get literally 100% of the book's usefulness in a 30 minute Ted Talk if done correctly.So why five stars? I'd give it 4.5 if I could because the wordiness is a bit much, but the message behind the book, the approaches to rectify certain things, etc. are really quite amazing, and an incredibly fresh outlook on things. There are easy changes to make with profound effects and you really just don't get that out of books these days.
"The result, after dozens of experiments in Baumeister's lab and hundreds elsewhere, is a new understanding of willpower and of the self. We want to tell you what's been learned about human behavior, and how you can use it to change yourself for the better. Acquiring self-control isn't as magically simple as the techniques in modern self-help books, but neither does it have to be as grim as the Victorians made it out to be. Ultimately, self-control lets you relax because it removes stress and enables you to conserve willpower for the important challenges. We're confident that this book's lessons can make your life not just more productive and fulfilling but also easier and happier. And we can guarantee that you will not have to endure any sermons against bare ankles.""Improving willpower is the surest way to a better life.""Self-control is a vital strength and key to success in life."~ Roy Baumeister & John Tierney from WillpowerWillpower.It's ESSENTIAL to optimizing our lives. In fact, in their *great* book, Willpower, Roy Baumeister (one of the world's leading scientific researchers on self-control) and John Tierney (science writer for the New York Times) tell us that "Improving willpower is the surest way to a better life."I absolutely loved this book. It's an easy read and packed with goodness.Her are some of the Big Ideas:1. Eat Your Way to Willpower - No glucose, no willpower.2. Exercise Self-Control - And improve your life.3. Precommitment.- It's huge.4. Tidy Up! - And improve your willpower.5. Meditation - Anaerobic conditioning for selfcontrol.To find 250+ more reviews visit http://bit.ly/BrianReviews
"Will Power" has taken an abstract concept of the 19th century and transformed it into a 21st-century empirical scientific theory paralleling society's cultural transition from the enlightenment on to the scientific method and present day mega data analysis. I thoroughly enjoyed the attempted rigor of scientific citations of various studies. This more than anything provides credibility and legitimacy to the authors' arguments. It is a well written and intelligently thought-out treatise on the subject of individual will. There appears to be a third factor besides "Nature/genetics and Nurture/environment." Another variable that must be factored in when we endeavor to study human psychology let alone attempt to quantify and predict human behavior. 5 stars for throwing in another monkeywrench! Bravo! Well Done! Hats off to Dr. Baumeister and Dr. Tierney.
The authors summarize a lot of psychological research on willpower and self-control. There is a lot of discussion of statistical significance without as much discussion of the magnitudes of the effects as I would like to see, but this is a useful and credible explanation of the science of willpower for non-experts and non-specialists. Reading it is also a great way to avoid working on other things. :)There's an important takeaway I've been considering in other contexts: willpower is limited at any point in time, and every decision we make comes with a willpower price. It would probably be useful, after reading the book, to list things that can be automated and that won't require decision-making capacity. I'm going to experiment with decision rules related to food and clothes: same things as often as is practical.
