Hello, and thanks for the invite, @Trinley Goldenberg! I found this group through your tweets. I live in the midwest US, and I work remotely as a solutions architect for a professional services firm implementing and supporting enterprise software. I also lead a team of other architects. I joined the group because the title of the book is interesting to me and because the motivation/action/follow-through loop is something that's always evaded me in the long run. When things get hard or I start to struggle, it gets easier to give up than to push through. Dopamine gets harder to access and then I'm onto a new and shiny thing. Despite that, I've had great success in my work life, and I have a lucrative job that I mostly enjoy which supports me and my wife (and soon our son, due in June), so many external signals indicate that I'm doing a fine job even if inside I feel a lack of accomplishment because I see what is actually possible if I gave even a little bit more of myself. For a long time I was a person who read a lot of self development books, believing that another system or another insight would trigger this overnight change in my behavior. Obviously it didn't, and I don't think that this book will either. That said, I think a more public forum style approach could bring more benefit than doing this all on my own.
