Your Brain on Auto-Pilot: Why You Keep Doing What You Hate — and How to Finally Stop
Why do you keep doing things you swore you’d stop?
You overthink.
You say yes when you mean no.
You freeze when it’s time to act.
You chase clarity, motivation, or confidence… but stay stuck in the same patterns.
It’s not because you’re lazy.
It’s not because you’re broken.
It’s not even because you don’t want to change.
It’s because your brain doesn’t feel safe.
In this bold and compassionate follow-up to 7 Lies Your Brain Tells You, author Jordan Grant uncovers the hidden loops that keep you stuck — not because you don’t know better, but because your nervous system doesn’t feel ready to do better.
Each chapter zooms in on one loop you know too
Saying yes to avoid guilt
Opening apps to escape boredom
Avoiding tasks that feel like judgment
Abandoning your goals halfway
Overthinking every single decision
You’ll learn what’s really happening under the surface — biologically, emotionally, and behaviorally — and how to gently break free.
No willpower marathons.
No morning routine makeovers.
Just one job at the end of each
Break the loop once.
That’s it. That’s where freedom begins.
If you’re tired of watching yourself stay stuck — even when you know what you want — this book will meet you with truth, compassion, and a way forward that finally feels possible.

There's a great core of information here that I imagine could really help some people out, connecting a lot of similar issues with a pretty systematic and approachable way to tackle issues like people pleasing, procrastination, perfectionism, and overthinking. The thing that really holds this book back though is that it's quite padded and repetitive.
