The counterintuitive approach to reaching your true potential, heralded by the Harvard Business Review as a groundbreaking idea of the year. The road to personal and professional fulfillment is almost never straight. Ask anyone who has achieved his / her biggest goals or whose relationships thrive, and you will hear stories of several unexpected detours on the way. What separates those who get good at these challenges and those who get derailed? The answer is agility - psychological agility. Psychological agility is a groundbreaking, science-based approach which allows us to navigate life's twists and turns with self-acceptance, clear-sightedness, and an open mind. Renowned psychologist Susan David developed this concept after studying thoughts, happiness, and achievement for more than twenty years. She discovered that no matter how sensible or creative people are or what type of personality they have got, it is that they navigate their inner world - their thoughts, thoughts, and self-talk - that eventually decides how successful they will become. The way we react to these internal experience drives our activities, careers, relationships, pleasure, health - everything that counts inside our lives. As humans we all have been susceptible to common hooks - things such as self-doubt, shame, sadness, dread, or anger - that can too easily steer us in the incorrect direction. Emotionally agile people are not immune to strains and setbacks. The key difference is that they know how to conform, aligning their activities with their ideals and making small but powerful changes that lead to an eternity of growth. Psychological agility is not about disregarding difficult thoughts and thoughts; it's about positioning them loosely, facing them courageously and compassionately, and then moving past those to bring the best of yourself ahead. Drawing on her deep research, decades of international consulting, and her own experience in conquering adversity after burning off her father at a get older, David shows how anyone can prosper in an uncertain world by becoming more emotionally agile. To guide us she stocks four key concepts that allow us to recognize uncomfortable experience while all together detaching from them, in so doing allowing us to accept our core ideals and adapt our actions to allow them to move us where we truly want to go. Written with specialist, wit, and empathy, Emotional Agility functions as a road map for real behavioral change - a new way of performing that will help you reach your full potential, whomever you are and whatever you face.
