Synopsis

Set and achieve your goals in a brand-new way for a more fulfilling life

In What Works: A Comprehensive Framework to Change the Way We Approach Goal Setting, celebrated speaker, coach, and author Tara McMullin shows you how to transform the way you set and achieve your goals to create a gentler and more fulfilling way to work toward what you truly want. In the book, you'll explore what's driving your pursuit of "more" (more money, more things, more prestige, etc.), set commitments to help orient your growth, and organize your actions as part of a holistic learning process.

The author's actionable strategies and tools go beyond mere platitudes about "slowing down" and "appreciating what you have" to a concrete demonstration of how to prioritize practice over achievement. You'll also find: an antidote to our culture's relentless pursuit of "more"; ways to end the habit of constantly striving for something else at the cost of your own wellbeing; and strategies for ending your internal monologue of constant comparison to other people. An essential book for the productivity obsessed, unfulfilled career ladder-climbers, and overachievers who are ready to try a new approach to life and work, What Works represents a powerful and exciting new way to tackle life's challenges.

What Works… Def not half of this book Ok so I’ll start with the good… There was some good planning advice and takes on goal setting in a functional, less rigid way than other books/gurus present it. I def highlighted some lines/paragraphs to come back too. So it wasn’t a total wash! I enjoyed chapter......more
