About this listen
Stop not doing what you know you should do!
You might think laziness, lack of willpower, and/or low motivation are to blame for the fact that you aren't achieving your goals. But fascinating research in the field of psychoneuroimmunology has revealed another, far more likely possibility. One with the potential to transform your life in a dramatic way.
The typical excuses for not doing what you know you should - I'm too stressed out... I don't have the time... I don't have the energy, etc. - are, in fact, manifestations of a complex, interconnected web of psychological, chemical, and neurological factors.
When activated, these factors can effectively paralyze you - making it virtually impossible for you to take the actions needed to create change in your life.
In other words, even if you're highly motivated...if you've got these internal circumstances operating, you aren't going to be able to do it.
But while the biochemistry may be complex, the solutions are actually quite simple.
Dr. Nick Hall reveals these solutions - and the fascinating science behind them - in I Know What to Do, So Why Don't I Do It? You'll learn:
- An extraordinarily powerful stress-fighting tool that very few people take advantage of.
- An easy way to instantly regain control and stay focused in an emotional emergency.
- Six things to do when you think you've taken on more than you can accomplish in the time you have.
- The mistake almost everyone makes when they organize their to-do list.
- A simple exercise that can instantly tell you which side of your brain is dominant at any given time.
- The first-thing-in-the-morning action that will literally reset your internal clock and have a profoundly positive impact on your energy level for the rest of the day (and it is SO easy to do!).

Fantastic
I almost didn't purchase this book because of some of the reviews. I'm not sure how it could be described as 'pompous' because I certainly didn't get that. A very knowledgeable author who presented his information clearly, with confidence and humour.

Good stuff amongst it.

The start was the best bit
This was an interesting ‘book’. I say ‘book’ because it is a series of talks that Nick has performed and then he adds to the information with a recording. At times, he can be quite technical with his knowledge of neuroscience, which, if this is why you want the book, you will get it. I have not taken away too many new pieces of information which is why I gave it a 3 star rating. The end is bizarre, it turns not a podcast type of interview where someone is trying to sell you a website to go to for more information. The start is entertaining.

More Seminar than Book
The book is basically a live seminar talk by Nick. It has loads of great information and I really enjoyed it.

Interesting approach. The authors pompous voice, his try hard humour and the poor recording quality and quite difficult to deal with.
What three words best describe Nick Hall’s performance?
Pompous, try hard
Was I Know What to Do, So Why Don't I Do It? worth the listening time?
Yes. Though it was tedious.

Worth the investment
This is one of the most comprehensive and helpful book I have ever listened to on understanding and acquiring all the available knowledge and methods to overcome what holds you back from ‘being your best’. I have looked for the print version of the book without success. It is so rich in information that I was even contemplating typing it up myself. I’m not easily pleased with self-help book but this one has been the best so far and by far!
One last thing: his voice may put you off at first. But it only took a few minutes for me to forget about it.
