That may keep a society together, but it’s not the protagonist’s job. The Motivation Hacker shows you how to summon extreme amounts of motivation to accomplish anything you can think of. From precommitment to rejection therapy, this is your field guide to getting yourself to want to do everything you always wanted to want to do. I wrote this book in three months while simultaneously attempting seventeen other missions, including running a startup, launching a hit iPhone app, learning to write 3,000 new Chinese words, training to attempt a four-hour marathon from scratch, learning to skateboard, helping build a successful cognitive testing website, being best man at two weddings, increasing my bench press by sixty pounds, reading twenty books, going skydiving, helping to start the Human Hacker House, learning to throw knives, dropping my 5K time by five minutes, and learning to lucid dream. I planned to do all this while sleeping eight hours a night, sending 1,000 emails, hanging out with a hundred people, going on ten dates, buying groceries, cooking, cleaning, and trying to raise my average happiness from 6.3 to 7.3 out of 10. How? By hacking my motivation. Review: A strategic plan to retain motivation, and not just finding it. - Nick Winter introduces a new way of not running dry of motivation and not giving anyone control over when and how you get motivated. He calls it motivation hacking. You can cut through the blockage and restore the energy to accomplish your mission. Good planning and high confidence bring out a good motivation hacker. Alienate boring situations and experiences, replace them with activities that drive your life, and navigate your mind to challenges and the adrenaline to win. Having an iron will is an important skill to gain greater autonomy. It creates the possibility of achieving a goal set and one ends up in this invisible cloud where you believe that 'You'd rather try now and not regret later in future for not trying.' You have a whole ladder to climb up to. Detect when what you do doesn't spark joy anymore, and find more challenges to jump-start motivation or reroute. Nick Winter validates, " the larger the challenge, the better". According to the author, one way to commit to your tasks is by sharing with people who will keep you accountable. The author outlines an effective approach to setting goals. Such an amazing book as we approach the new year. Happy reading. Review: Useful tricks for motivation, writing could be improved - The Motivation Hacker explains multiple strategies to boost your motivation illustrated by the 3-month experiment of Nick Winter to radically be productive (with multiple goals such as reading 20 books, writing 1 book, learning 3000 Chinese words, running a marathon, etc packed in those 3 months). The advise is useful and mostly based on other sources he reviewed, but two things might go against this book. First, it's written from someone heavily focused on tracking and optimizing his life, I agree with this but even for me it was too much. The other thing is that while he achieved to write the first draft of this book in 3 months, some ideas and sections could have benefited from taking more time to be better organized, add more reflection and more edition. It seems a bit rushed or unrefined, a second edition would be useful but as far as I know it doesn't exist ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #1,406,205 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #4,382 in Motivational Self-Help (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.1 out of 5 stars 712 Reviews | ## Images ![The Motivation Hacker - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61eBHaRDMHL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A strategic plan to retain motivation, and not just finding it. *by N***E on December 5, 2019* Nick Winter introduces a new way of not running dry of motivation and not giving anyone control over when and how you get motivated.

This is one of the first "self-development blogger" type books I've read where I didn't feel like the information was all a rehash of other, better books. Granted, the ideas in here are not new, but as someone who wasn't familiar with The Procrastination Equation or the material on LessWrong on the subject, I felt this was a great introduction to some very applicable concepts. Winter is also an engaging, humorous writer, so even if you're not interested in "motivation hacking," his personal anecdotes can make it a fun read. Maybe not life-changing work, but it might just start you on a path of improvement. I know it has for me. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.be/products/23046976-the-motivation-hacker](https://www.desertcart.be/products/23046976-the-motivation-hacker) --- *Product available on Desertcart Belgium* *Store origin: BE* *Last updated: 2026-05-22*
