Last week, Mike and John discussed willpower and self-discipline, which are at times considered synonymous even though they really aren’t. In this episode, they delve into willpower more fully. The topic involves a video by author and Stanford professor Kelly McGonigal. 

The video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V5BXuZL1HAg) was a presentation that the author gave to the employees at Google back in 2012. McGonigal is the author of the book “The Willpower Instinct”. While Mike and John can’t say that the presentation faithfully follows the book, it appears that the video distills a lot of the information from the book. Very likely though, the book provides WAY more detail than can be seen in this video.

At the end, as usual, we give the Final Thought.
