Relying on Willpower
The risk of skipping a workout increases when you rely only on willpower or even if you start to overthink about the subject.

To change your mental state, you need to change your physical state. Your mood changes based on the action you are performing.

Relying on Willpower
People with a lot of self-discipline understand that willpower is a last resort.
Willpower should never be a primary strategy for accomplishing difficult things.

This app is LOADED with RELEVANT, HELPFUL, AND EDUCATIONAL material. It is creatively intellectual, yet minimal enough to not overstimulate and create a learning block. I am exceptionally impressed with this app!
