Change Anything: The New Science of Personal Success giá ưu đãi

We all know what we want to do. Whether it’s losing weight, advancing our career, improving our relationships, or getting our spending under control, we all have goals clearly in sight, but somehow, despite our best intentions, we manage to flounder. The training maestros at Utah’s Changing Anything Labs know how to curb your self-destructive ways and truly improve your professional and personal lives. This practical toolkit doesn’t wallow in faultfinding or sermons about willpower; it lays out practices that can focus your energy on achieving what you know needs to be done.

A stunning new approach to how individuals can not only change their lives for the better in the workplace, but also their lives away from the office, including (but not limited to) finding ways to improve one’s working relationship with others, one’s overall health, outlook on life, and so on.

For example, why is it that 95% of all diet attempts fail? Why do New Year’s Resolutions last no more than a few days? Why can’t people with good intentions seem to make consistent and positive strides in the way they want to improve their careers, financial fitness, physical fitness, and so on?

Based upon the latest research in a number of psychological and medical fields, the authors of CHANGE ANYTHING will show that traditional will-power is not necessarily the answer to these strivings, that people are affected in their behaviors by far more subtle influences. CHANGE ANYTHING shows how individuals can come to understand these powerful and influential forces, and how to put these forces to work in a positive manner that brings real and meaningful results.

The authors present an array of everyday examples that will change and truly empower you to reexamine the way you go about your business and life.

From the Change Anything Labs at the base of Utah’s Wasatch Mountains comes an extremely practical toolkit from the authors of Influencer and Crucial Conversations. The good news (and this book is all positive) is that you can get out of debt, beat addictions, lose weight, build healthy relationships, and become more successful in your career if you understand what the authors call the “six sources of influence that affect daily decisions.” The authors claim that the concept of willpower is incomplete and only a very small part of overcoming obstacles. They relay six practices to use, including making the right choices pleasurable, finding accomplices in change, and bribing oneself to change. They offer awareness and positive steps to all who seek change in their lives.
