Evolutionary Psychology The New Science Of The Mind
Evolutionary-Psychology-The-New-Science-Of-The-Mind-review

The majority of people are scared away when they see a book, let alone one that looks similar to a college or high school text book...
These are the same people that're missing out on a wealth of knowledge when it comes to how our mind works.

"SJ, why would I care about evolutionary psychology?"

Understanding how our mind has evolved over time and why and what we're bias to is extremely powerful knowledge and can be applied to everything and anything such as...

  • Dating
  • Sales
  • Motivating yourself
  • Motivating others

Once you Understand How Your Mind Is Hardwired You Can Conquer It!

The cliche saying 'knowledge is power' could not be more true when it comes to psychology.

I’m SJ. I’m a fitness enthusiast and published author. I transformed my body from a skinny fat 135lbs with 18% body fat to a solid 192lbs at 8% body fat. I became qualified in a field I was passionate about. I founded several online businesses that allow me to pursue ideas and projects in my life that I am passionate about without having to constantly worry about money. I published several eBooks explaining the training and dieting techniques I used to achieve the body I have today. I learnt a plethora of new information on dieting and fitness by reading and applying what I read, to find out what does work and what doesn’t work, because as I’m sure you’ve noticed the health and fitness industry is full of non-sense claims and BS. I found out what was true and what worked for me and applied that knowledge. And you bet I had fun during the whole process.
