Having the mental fortitude to reach your goals, whether they concern your job, your personal finances, your skills at a hobby, or even your waistline, seems forever unattainable. But here's the truth: Greater willpower and lasting success are well within your reach. It all depends on an understanding of the science behind self-control. And once you've grasped the fundamentals of self-control and learned how to incorporate them into your personal life, you'll find you can make the seemingly unattainable finally possible. Scientific Secrets for Self-Control, six lessons by Professor C. Nathan DeWall, is your guide to understanding—and mastering—the general theories behind self-control: what it is, how it works, and how you can take steps to improve it.
