A Life-Changing Habit Millions of People Wish They’d Learned Sooner
What if the secret to self-control, peace of mind, and real change wasn’t more willpower—but one small word?
If you’ve ever felt trapped in the same bad habits, lost your temper too quickly, or made choices you regretted, the problem isn’t a lack of discipline. It’s the speed of your impulses. One simple word—Later—can set you free.
Free from overthinking, cravings, and compulsions. Free from the constant urge to check your phone, reach for your glass, or snap at your loved ones.
The Power of Later gives you back control—of your reactions, your time, and your life.
In her groundbreaking new book, Barbora Jirincová, PhD—writer, historian, and former university lecturer—reveals the deceptively simple self-control technique that helped her overcome anxiety, burnout, and endless postpone acting on the impulse. Just for a little while.
If you loved Atomic Habits or The 5 Second Rule, you’ll recognize the same blend of simplicity, science, and inspiration—only this time, the power lies not in doing more, but in waiting a little longer.
You don’t need to win every battle today.
You just need to wait—later.
"I loved this book. I usually don´t read self-help books, but this one was so easy to read that I enjoyed it. The method itself - strategic postponement of pleasure gratification or simply postponing giving in to any urge - seems simple. The kind of idea you try out and then wonder, Why did you not think about it before. But that is the magic. I'm eager for the next GameChanger series. Jirincova knows what she writes about, she has the sources, knows psychology, and yet relates to regular readers."
