This is a short book, 184 pages. This book has the real challenges, the processing, identification of what drags us down, social, behavioral, structural planning, rationale, then doing it, based on what’s been tracked. Things like promissory note, what we typically do to avoid the challenge. Fallback patterns.

Making changes show importance of time. Breaks down how to look at self and how to improve this problem. Habits and patterns.
