YOU HAVE THE POWER TO CHANGE YOUR LIFE, BUT KNOWING WHERE YOU WANT TO GO IS NOT ENOUGH. YOU ALSO NEED TO KNOW HOW TO GET THERE.
The Power to Change shows how to use Stoic principles to create a successful life and provides a clear road map and directions to get there. It will guide you in designing a life that flows well and dealing with problems that arise in everyday living.
More than two thousand years ago, a group of philosophers known as the Stoics analyzed life's predicaments and came up with simple solutions. The principles they identified were so profound that they formed the basis of many major modern psychotherapies. They are easy to use and powerful, and they can be applied to modern life and its problems. Often we don't pay much attention to simple principles because we don't believe simple things can be effective, but when understood and consistently practiced, simple principles can have a profound effect on our lives.
The problems are real. The solutions are accessible. Each chapter in The Power to Change is bite-sized and actionable, focusing on common, day-to-day challenges - from anxiety, self-sabotage and overthinking to resilience, habits and productivity - and giving you easy-to-apply tools to overcome them.
Practicing them is not difficult. But practicing consistently is where most of us fail. The Power to Change is packed with tools and exercises to help you practice consistently, bypass every motivational plateau and reach the big payoff.
