Do you constantly wish you were more disciplined, focused, and consistent with your daily routines? Have you ever stopped to wonder what exactly sabotages your everyday efforts, leaving your best intentions completely dead in the water?

The answer almost always traces back to a web of maladaptive routines. Procrastination, chronic impatience, extreme risk aversion, a total lack of clear priorities, and a general sense of daily unhappiness are rarely character flaws—they are simply the direct result of hidden, bad habits insidiously controlling your subconscious behavior.
