You’ll get there faster if you just slow down
Master Your Mind offers a bit of perspective and a lot of insight for anyone seeking long-term success. Success in business is spelled M-O-R-E: better results, faster growth, more revenue, greater efficiency. Do more. Make more. Achieve more. And do it now. Eventually, ambition turns to stress, then to frenzy, then to emptiness as once-ambitious workers endlessly trudge the hamster wheel chasing the next promotion. While top-level performance is the holy grail of business at all levels, there is another, much better way to achieve it: slow down. Yes, you read that right—S-L-O-W. This is your permission to jump off of the hamster wheel.
Slowing down is not a luxury, it is a necessity. A frenetic brain simply doesn’t perform at optimal levels. By maintaining a snail’s pace, you actually achieve better results—at rocket speed—because you’re firing on all cylinders. You’ll think of new things, approach old problems from new perspectives, and breathe a breath of fresh air into everything you do. This book shows you how to achieve this state of steady, sustainable fire, and how to get further by crawling than you ever did while attempting to fly.
- Learn how slowing down can lead to better, faster results
- Achieve optimal performance thought patterns
- Enhance your creativity and effectiveness
- Build energy, revenue, and good health in a self-sustaining way
You know you’re capable of more, but the stress is eating away at your body, your brain, and your soul. Relax, take a deep breath, and buckle down. Clear your mind, and then put it to work. Stop juggling and start doing. Master Your Mind shows you how to supercharge your trajectory by taking it S-L-O-W.
Fed up with trying to get ahead in business by working longer hours and continually racing your brain at a hundred miles an hour? Unfortunately, success in business is spelled M-O-R-E: better results, faster growth, more revenue, greater efficiency. Do more. Make more. Achieve more. And do it now. Master Your Mind offers an antidote to the endless (and pointless) cycle of "doing more" in order to succeed. Throughout the book, Roger Seip and Robb Zbierski—Seip is the author of the bestselling book Train Your Brain For Success—explain how the counterintuitive approach of slowing down can help optimize your performance and get you the positive results you've been searching for.
Master Your Mind reveals the tactics and methods that lead to increased energy, revenue, and good health in a self-sustaining way. The approaches presented are not pie-in-the sky but have proven to be effective with the authors' thousands of clients. The book shows how to stop thinking your success relies on quantity, and start on the road to improving the quality of your effort. The book clearly demonstrates what it takes to up-your-game by combining the right amount of effort (after all, it takes work) with a high degree of presence, focus, intentionality, and being in the "Zone." Filled with illustrative examples, Master Your Mind shows why slowing down your brain gives you a much better understanding of what is really going on in your head that will get your desired results. The book also explores the obstacles that are holding you back.
Drawing on discoveries in neuroscience (the authors don't claim to be scientists), Master Your Mind offers a basic understanding of the root causes and benefits of slowing down and includes techniques for applying the scientific lessons. The approaches and tactics outlined in Master Your Mind work because they align with what's most deeply important to you and they are done in a way that actually works for your brain.
Once you apply the book's lessons and put the winning strategies into practice, you will be amazed that success will come your way with little or no extra effort.
