Influence yourself to success

I found this audio-book highly motivating, and would recommend it to anyone looking to increase their willpower and self-control. I learned some easy ways to boost my influence and persuasion skills, which are useful to use on myself when I need to talk myself into doing something. It was very interesting to learn about some of the things that can affect willpower, and ways in which to strengthen it.

The audio-book includes some simple and effective step by step exercises that help to build a more positive self image and be more confident. I found the tips really helpful, for example the list of habits that build willpower, and instructions on how to create a motivational list. I also found the quotations really inspiring.

Super hints and tips to improve Self Discipline

Would you consider the audio edition of Self Discipline to be better than the print version?

They are equally as good, I found it useful having it in both formats so I could make notes while listening.

What was one of the most memorable moments of Self Discipline?

I really loved the bits that went into the biological factors surrounding our ability to be disciplined - it was really interesting to know that low blood sugar levels can be damaging to our ability to remain disciplined and will be taking it into account in future.

Which character – as performed by Joshua Mackey – was your favourite?

This is a how to inormation book, so no characters, but Josh did a good job of keeping it interesting and helping you to take points on board.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

Not exactly, but I like the idea that self discipline is like a muscle, that you need to work it to make it stronger!

Any additional comments?

This is a great guide with some well-researched and interesting information, which I will be happy to put into practice in my own life. Thanks Ace and Josh - I will be downloading more!

Thought-Provoking

If you could sum up Self Discipline in three words, what would they be?

Useful. Contemplative. Engaging.

What did you like best about this story?

While not a story in the strictest sense of the word, the theme and purpose of the book was useful; self-discipline, even if not to the point of Kolinahr, is something that can be very useful in one's personal life as much as a professional one depending on personal events and the disposition of the individual.

Did the narration match the pace of the story?

Yes; the narrator was well-paced.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

No.

The Power of the Mind

What did you like best about this story?

This audio book is such a spring of knowledge. One of my favorite quotes is "Attitude changes your altitude" and it's so refreshing to hear not just inspirational quotes such as these, but how to put them into daily practice. This book covers the what, where, why, when, and how's and I can't wait to put them to use!

Highly motivating

Where does Self Discipline rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

Self Discipline is a mighty book, that offers a huge amount of motivational information in a compact form. With a listening time of just over an hour, it leaves you with the feeling that you have just heard a week of seminars on the subject. The book itself tells you how to deal with this without becoming overwhelmed, and there are scores of practical suggestions as to where to begin, how to progress and how to succeed. I would rank the book in the top 3 motivational books I have ever listened to, in terms of content and capacity to initiate real change.

What was one of the most memorable moments of Self Discipline?

The walk through "how to" in relation to focussing down on one (big) thing and progressing it through to success was extremely helpful. I, like many of us, can become overwhelmed by wanting to change too much, all at the same time. Also the idea that our actions are the outcome of what we have truly decided, so if there is no new action, we have not truly decided to change.

What does Joshua Mackey bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you had only read the book?

In his usual style, Joshua brings his innate enthusiasm and clarity to the presentation of this subject, where it adds an extra layer of positivity.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

Yes! I actually listened in two sittings, because I began listening when I didn't have time to complete it, but when the time came to switch it off I didn't want to; I was making notes while listening and feeling very inspired for change.

Any additional comments?

Self Discipline takes you through building competence in persuasion, will power and discipline; looks at how to fight the need for instant gratification; and then at some great role models. However, the detail covers a massive range of subjects from blood sugar fluctuation, to laughter therapy and practicing gratitude. A worthy listen.

Self Discipline Explained!

What did you like most about Self Discipline?

This is the second book I've listened to by Ace McCloud and just like the first, Self Discipline is tremendous at outlining all the key elements to consider when it comes to self-discipline. The book manages to strike that perfect balance between being informative and engaging, while at just 1 hour in length, it was ideal and inspiring to listen to driving in before work.

It goes into great detail on topics like controlling negative influences, how to influence lives both personally and professionally, while the section on willpower is truly fascinating. The tips that the author gives are so simple but they make so much sense when you hear why and how they can help you.

What was one of the most memorable moments of Self Discipline?

The chapter on willpower is very interesting. It offers information, advice and examples of how you can increase your willpower and I found it to be very enlightening.

Which character – as performed by Joshua Mackey – was your favourite?

There were no characters in the book, but I thought the narrator does a really great job of engaging the listener and putting emphasis on many of the key points that are included.

Any additional comments?

I would recommend this book for anyone who is interested in gaining more influence on there lives. I listened to this and immediately I saw instances in my life in which I saw opportunities to utilize some of the tips given in the book.

Perfect length for a motivational book

Where does Self Discipline rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

I have listened two books... it comes second

What was one of the most memorable moments of Self Discipline?

Joshua Mackey has like a trustable voice that compels you to listen to the book to the end

What about Joshua Mackey’s performance did you like?

This guy is a keeper. That voice is straight salesmanship

If you made a film of this book, what would be the tag line be?

i dunno. to me the book is always better

Any additional comments?

I think this is the perfect size for a modern motivational book. Ace covers only the essential stuff without fillers. Joshua Mackey with his "you-can-do-it" voice killed it.

However, i disagree with some of the opinions here but i guess we are all essentric to our individual opinions
