What the book is about

We make simple things complicated. That's the whole problem. Most of the time you already know what to do. You've known for a while. The hard part was never the information. The hard part is deciding, and then living like you decided.

This book is about your will. Not willpower. Not hustle. Will — the part of you that chooses. It's the one thing that was given to you and cannot be taken from you. People can pressure it, talk over it, wear it down. They can't take it. You hand it over.

The Complicated Simplicity is about taking it back.
