I got to the part wherein self-control is said to be a quality of intelligence (chapter 1) and it got me thinking. I agree. But I also agree that self-control and willpower can be learned. I think majority of the population was not born with self-control and willpower but despite that, a lot has seemed to master it. Anyone who wants to be part of those who have power over their desires (not the other way around) should start reading this. The guide questions that make you evaluate how some factors in life are detrimental to your self-control and willpower are truly helpful. I also like the practicality of the chapter about how goal-setting should be done in a SMART way so as to be able to determine at an early stage how achievable (or ridiculous) a plan is. Highly positive read!
