Unlock the secret to build confidence, defeat uncertainty and make positive change. Ordinary Magic can change your life.

It is easy to think that our problems are out of our control, but we actually have vast opportunities to steer our own lives. If you're expecting an interaction to go wrong, that expectation can make it so. That's spiralling down. But, as esteemed Stanford psychologist Greg Walton shows, simple shifts in our perspective known as 'wise interventions' can help us set out new trajectories for our lives. They help us spiral up.

This is ordinary magic: the ordinary experiences that help us overcome the ordinary worries of life to unleash extraordinary change. Through vivid storytelling and cutting-edge research, Dr Walton reveals how to harness the power of ordinary magic across all aspects of our lives.
