A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

We are brought up to believe a certain set of rules: the early bird gets the worm. Slow and steady wins the race. Do unto others as you would have them do unto you. Good things happen to good people. Keep your faith, work hard and all your dreams will come true. But then we grow up. We learn that life isn't really fair. There are no fairy godmothers, and not everything works out in the end, no matter how good we have been or how hard we've tried. Why, then, are these myths perpetuated? Because clichés and over-simple recipes for living provide a soothing way to manage our daily lives without confronting the harsh reality that some parts of our lives are out of our control. For several decades, Ken Druck has been willing to stand up and write about what we have hidden from ourselves for so long: we need to confront life as it is, not as we want it to be. We cannot magically wish things into reality. We cannot expect happiness or success to manifest from daily affirmations. By embracing the real rules of life, we discover life's terms and learn to balance them with our own, preventing costly psychological debts and developing the life skills, underlying wisdom and emotional freedom essential for fuller, richer lives. This book will resonate with what readers know to be true about how life really is. Readers will discover themselves in vibrant teaching stories from the front lines of Dr Druck's pioneering work with individuals, families, communities, leaders and cutting-edge organisations. They will push the refresh button on long-held myths and limitations, turning them into empower truths, redirecting their lives in much more effective and purposeful ways, and reinvigorating the pursuit of their dream.
