The Minimalist Guide to Hacking Your Habits
Sometimes you think you’re driving the elephant, but really the elephant is driving you.
And everything that you’ve heard about willpower, about success—it might all be wrong.
While studying social psychology at Stanford, I found myself unable to finish a particular project on time. My project, ironically, involved procrastination.
So I delved deeply into the literature and discovered that what we think we know about fear, goal setting and willpower is backwards.
We don’t need to use willpower. Instead, we need to build systems that force ourselves to succeed—without any possibility of failure.
I’ve prepared a seriously substantial gift. You’re going to get a collection of my best resources to fighting fears and building successful habits. Just enter in your email address below to get the first gift, The Minimalists Guide to Hacking Your Habits.
The guide will show you how to
- Hack Accountability, Monetary Punishment, and Solution-based Psychology to help you finally make that change—be it quitting smoking, losing weight, exercising, learning a language, or whatever goal you have.
- Offer you a worksheet and a step-by-step process to understand WHY you do what you do—and how to shape your behavior through contextual and environmental changes.
Sign up below:
You’ll also receive updates to the Hack the System newsletter, where you’ll learn the secrets of life hacking — How to earn free plane tickets, how to lose 28 lbs in a month, how to network with celebrities—and much more.
Who am I? I’m Maneesh Sethi—24 years old, Stanford educated—who’s been traveling to exotic locations for over four years. Since 2007, I’ve:
- Lived in and learned the languages of Italy, Spain, Argentina, Brazil, and India.
- Founded an NGO in India that raised $5000 to build a library and computer lab for a poor village in India. (SaveThem.net)
- Had a sandwich named after me in Florence,Italy.
- Built a completely passive business, outsourced with several virtual assistants, that runs on fewer than four hours of work per week.

I also only got something about travelling…
No hacking habits guide either. Seems like you need to fix something. Just got the having the system guide about traveling.
When I signed up to get Minimalist Guide to Hacking Your Habits, that’s not what I got a link to. Can I get the right John link?
I find your site fascinating, would love a copy of the hack your habits book. Thanks!
Curious to see what you’ve found!
looking forward to regular posts too…
(Aside: It isn’t immediately obvious WHERE one is supposed to “sign up” for the various guides, etc. I’m guessing it’s here, because there is no other place or link.)
Same here – I got the travel guide but not the hacking habits one.
Thanks!
Thank you!!
regards
Maneesh,
I got the travel hacking guide instead of the hacking habits guide. It seems other people have had the same problem. Please send me the link
Thanks

The “Hacking Your Habits” newsletter sounds wonderful. I’m tempted to subscribe but first wanted to ask what might happen to the information I submit. Is it possible my name and email address will be sold or traded? What sorts of email might I receive, in addition to the newsletter? Thanks.
won’t be sold or traded.
You can unsubscribe at any time.
You will receive a weekly newsletter and info about posts i’ve written on my blog.
gimme
Thanks
Your belief system helps to fill in some gaps in what I believed to be working in my life.I am a person of self-motivation.You have reminded me of things that do work yet I have neglected or forgotten them.It is good to know I don’t have to do it all myself.By allowing others into my life,I in turn am returning that energy into theirs.Peace.
Writing a too long thesis ^^
Looking forward to the constructive procrastination or reading up 🙂
Thanks!!!

Loved your column on making habits impossible to fail. I want the minimalist guide to hacking your habits. Got a lot of bad ones to change and good ones to set up.
Looking forward to “Hack the System”. Thanks
Thanks! I’ll give it a try!
Thanks! Looking forward to trying this.
Looking forward to reading it
lets hack it together then!
Thank you!
Here is something hanging on my bulletion board and I read it often.
Unless one is commited, there is hesitancy
The chance to draw back-always ineffectiveness
This is an elementary truth:
The moment that one definitely commits oneself,
The Providence moes too.
All sorts of things occcur to help one that would never
Othewise have occurred.
A whole stream of events issue from the decision
Raising in one’s favor all manner ofnts
Unforseen incidents and material assistance whi
No man could have dreamed would have come his way.
I think this is exactly what you are saying and wish I could afford your newsletter but don’t think I can.
my newsletter is free….
thanks
Didn’t get what I asked for, the Minimalist guide to Hacking Your Habits.
did you receive it now? I resent it out…
I got the newsletter with ideas about airline miles and Regus office space but never got the ebook about habits. Where do I get it? Can you send it to me? Thanks, Art
Alright!
Is this where I sign up?
Can’t sign up for ‘minimalist guide to hacking your habits’ / email list. I’ve had this problem with aweber before. If something goes wrong and you don’t get the activation email (I know all about spam folders, etc. blah), aweber does not allow you to try again (as your web page suggests).
