About this PDF

Go deeper than the basic tools: learn why research says they work, where the evidence is weak, and how to test a plan in your own life without fooling yourself. This 27-page illustrated English guide builds on the Beginner edition through eight chapters: the three needs behind motivation; goals in depth; habits in practice; if-then plans in depth; thinking, feeling and overthinking; energy - sleep, movement and food for motivation; solitude, people and support; and a capstone chapter that turns everything into a six-week plan you can test and review. Each chapter opens with a small scene, explains the research in plain English, shows what the research does and does not say, and ends with a short exercise and check questions. An Advanced Steady Log at the back gives you a page to record the plan, and chapters that touch feelings, sleep or support say clearly when to seek help. A Sources page lists the web addresses for further reading. Where a method is the book's own design, the book says so; where an idea comes from established research, the source is named. This is general education, not medical or psychological advice, and it does not award a qualification or promise results.
