About this listen
Imagine how different your life would be if you knew a way to hack your daily habits to become a highly self-disciplined and productive person.
You will never quite know how many opportunities you have missed by lacking the self-discipline to truly follow through on your convictions. Whether it's attaining a new body, better job, or simply being more productive in life. All too often people fall short as they aren't equipped with the right mental make-up and mind tricks to actually achieve it.
Not anymore.
James Daugherty is an intelligence expert and former CIA spy who specializes in all forms of human behavior. But there's one trait which is critical to winning, self-discipline. A spy would be worthless without it.
However he never realized quite how much his ability to cultivate a self-disciplined mindset whilst working in the field as an American spy would help everyday people in civilian life.
Imagine if you could arrange your habits and behaviors in a way to achieve seamless success in whatever you are doing.
In this insightful and functional book, Daugherty gives listeners a firsthand look into the trials and tribulations he dealt with in the field as a CIA operative and no-nonsense guide revealing how to:
- Understand the basic cognitive principles on how the brain actually works
- The nature of a "habit loop"
- Why it's critical to identify bad habits and replace them with better ones
- Tactics to help you naturally cultivate a self-disciplined mindset
- Strategies to help with delaying gratification and preventing procrastination
- Day-to-Day habits of a spy to develop extreme productivity
- Implementing "Habit Pyramiding" for exponential progress
- CIA fitness training principles for fast results
And much more.

Story
The ancient Toltecs believed that life, as we perceive it, is a dream. We each live in our own personal dream, and these come together to form the dream of the planet, or the world in which we live. Problems arise when our perception of the dream becomes clouded with negativity, drama, and judgment (of ourselves and others), because it's in these moments of suffering that we have forgotten that we are the architects of our own reality and we have the power to change our dream if we choose.

Words. We use them all the time, every day, mostly without giving them much thought at all. We take for granted that they’re here at our disposal whenever we need them. But if you’ve ever wished you could communicate more effectively, words are the place to start. It’s incumbent upon you to choose the best words to accomplish your goals, because how you choose to communicate influences—well, everything! The power of communication shapes our professional goals, our relationships, and our lives—so the words we choose to use carry a great deal of power.

logically based material
Great audio book! It uses logic and science to support the message, and it doesn't rely on fluffy feel good rhetoric. This was clearly meant as a learning tool in conjunction with an inspirational tool.

A Worthwhile REad
Any additional comments?
This is a fascinating book, written in narrative form that works pretty well. The concept is powerful but the narrative gets a bit cute at times. It's a book I'm going to need to re-read a couple of times for the concept to become "imprinted" into my thinking. The approach it suggests is applicable to companies, nonprofits and even individuals.

This is an excellent helpful guide !!
Any additional comments?
Self-control and self-discipline go hand in hand. Being disciplined involves controlling your urges and impulses that will reflect in the way you speak, your attitude and emotions and your relationships with those around you. Excellent time management involves a change in focus from activities to results. Without failure success may only be as much as the vision you have when you go to bed at night. Recommended!

Boring, not worthy buying
Would you try another book from James Daugherty and/or Tom Taverna?
Definitely no. Before I bought, I found it's all 5 star comments and I really regretted I bought this one.
What could James Daugherty have done to make this a more enjoyable book for you?
It's nothing new to reader, it feels like it just put together something we already know and made into a book.
How did the narrator detract from the book?
Don't like the narrator, the voice made me almost fall asleep
What reaction did this book spark in you? Anger, sadness, disappointment?
Disappointment. Want to return it.
