One way to consistently make wise decisions is to make as many of them as possible ahead of time. I’ve used this strategy to improve my weekly calendar, my study habits, and even how and when I exercise.
There’s an entire framework behind how I do it, and you can find it in my latest book, Think Ahead. You can get your copy here: https://go2.lc/YTTA
Learn even more about how the brain works and tools for winning the war in your mind with Craig’s book, Winning the War in Your Mind: Change Your Thinking, Change Your Life. And, you can apply what you read with the new companion workbook.
