AARP link “Throw those disgusting things away”
It has been said of churches “that nothing keeps this place going like inertia” and I suspect church is not the only institution that merits this rather dismissive description.
You see AARP have only really dealt with identifying the problem without dealing with the root challenge – “willpower and habit”. Right now there is a spate of really good books about habit and willpower and onc bought it would be unwise to discard them!
The Willpower Instinct – Kelly McGonigal (see pp. 3-4)
The Power of Habit – Charles Duhigg
Willpower, Rediscovering the Greatest Human Strength v- Roy F. Baumeister & John Tierney
