Why do good intentions so often fail while bad habits seem effortless? Why do some systems succeed with less effort while others struggle despite working harder?
The answer is friction.
In Friction, Michael D. Roberts Jr. explores one of the most overlooked forces shaping human behavior. Every decision, every habit, every organization, and every relationship contains hidden resistance. Sometimes friction protects us. Other times, it quietly pushes us toward poor decisions without us ever noticing.
Through engaging stories, practical mental models, and examples drawn from business, psychology, technology, health, and everyday life, this book reveals how friction influences nearly everything we do—and how intentionally designing it can dramatically improve the quality of our choices.
Inside you'll discover:
• Why motivation is often less important than environment.
• How invisible resistance shapes habits and behavior.
• The difference between helpful and harmful friction.
• Practical frameworks for designing better decisions.
• Why successful people and organizations engineer systems instead of relying on willpower.
• How small changes in friction can produce extraordinary long-term results.
Whether you're improving your personal life, leading a team, building a business, or simply trying to make better decisions, Friction offers a timeless way to understand the invisible forces guiding human behavior.
Once you learn to see friction, you'll never look at decisions the same way again.
