How to Make Yourself Do Anything, Thinking Things Done – PJ Eby

• A book about what natural struggling is, and how to stop it
• A book about what natural motivation is, and how to get it
• A book about powerful mental techniques for planning, decisionmaking, habit creation, and other traditional “productivity” topics

It would have been 600 pages long, aside from the fact that it would have been. far away. It was obvious to me when I stopped writing new chapters in 2009.

A literary agent who read the first half dozen chapters suggested to me that the book was I. Should be. It might be called naturally successful or naturally struggling.

I was planning to get back to it at some point and make it work, but I spent most of the last year in denial. I try to squeeze fifteen pounds of feed into a five pound sack every few weeks.

And it just wasn’t working.

If you are a member of the Mind Hackers’ Guild, you have already seen, heard, or read everything that I have produced in the last year or two on these topics, and you have a chance to take advantage of the techniques.

One prominent Guild member saw improvements in his ability to handle both big projects. And. The small daily annoyances of work, that he got me a gig hosting a sort of private internet radio business advice show, called The Leverage Point with P.J. Eby. I will be answering business productivity and business process improvement questions from members of the Renaissance Club and the Mastermind Club.

But if you are. Not. All you have seen of the work I have been doing is a couple of sample chapters and the occasional special report.

I realized that I knew a lot about getting. It started. I learned a lot more when I started the book. focusing I was trying to write it.

There was something important that I didn’t know about. finishing. I discovered that recently.

I had a mental block that prevented me from declaring anything finished. I didn’t really like what I did as a complete course or book or workshop.

There was always something that could be improved.

I was perfectly okay with making and delivering imperfect materials to Guild members. I didn’t want to ever announce or offer for sale anything as a finished product.

In the very first chapter of Thinking Things Done, I mentioned that it was easier to see the bugs. Other. People’s brains are more important than your own. As is usually the case with our brain bugs, many people pointed out this little quirk of mine, but I felt that they just didn’t understand. This stuff is really. It wasn’t. After all…

I stumbled onto the bug in my brain that was doing both things when I was trying to figure out why I was always setting unrealistic goals.

I didn’t have the right to say that something was finished. When I told my mother that I had cleaned my room and finished my chores, she yelled at me for not being finished. I learned to ask her to take a look at my work, but not claim to be finished, and to downplay it. All. I am making progress, but it is not my accomplishments. Really. finished yet…

I have been doing this for my entire life since then.

So it’s time for me to make a change.

I decided to do something completely different instead of worrying about having the perfect book or outline.

I will tell you what I have done on the finished book, as well as what I have done in the incomplete edition. I will send it to everyone I promised a copy to as a series of 7 chapters via email.

I give the seven chapters to new Mind Hackers’ Guild members because they lay the groundwork for everything else I do and teach. They teach the basics of mind-hacking, positive motivation, and negative feeling elimination in chapter 3.

Beginning on Friday, February 12th, and continuing through March 12th, I will be sending these out one per week.

I am also going to be doing something while that is going on. Other than that. .

I will be looking at the tons and tons. It was finished. The material I produced in the last couple of years was looking for the newsletters, CDs, and workshops that most succinctly conveyed the key ideas that I wanted to put out in the finished book, and even more specifically, the ideas that actually ended up making a difference in my own life.

And then…

Let’s just keep that a surprise for now.

Stay up to date.
