Well, well. For a book about self-discipline so far the author has a outrageous lack of it in a literary sense.
Get to the damn point. Gionvanni. I'm just near the beginning and if he tells me one more time about how good it *would* be to be disciplined rather than actionable advice Imma gonna get pretty frustrated.

sleeping on it, I'm still annoyed about this book, so far it's so superficial (for a serious reader of non-fiction). Reviewing my queue I haven't read Tools of Titans yet (under the assumption it'd be annoyingly superficial) and I'm sure it will annoy me less, so I'm going to re-shelve this one until the reviews mature a bit and the feeling of ripped-off-ness has faded a bit. I'll finish it but not today.

Another thing I hate is an author telling me how good they are for pages and pages and pages at the beginning. Prove it, don't shove it at me.
I don't want to know that you get up at 2am and meditate for 2 hours and only eat 1 meal a day and everyone who knows you is so jealous of how disciplined you are. Such disgusting egotistism, for shame. NPD? Maybe.
