Peter Bregman, author of the Wall Street Journal bestseller 18 Minutes, offers strategies to replace energy-wasting, counter-productive habits that commonly derail us with truly effective ones.
The things we want most-peace of mind, fulfilling relationships, to do well at work-are surprisingly straightforward to realize. But too often our best efforts to attain them are built on destructive habits that sabotage us. In 4 Seconds, Peter Bregman shows us how to replace negative patterns with energy boosting and productive behaviors. To thrive in our fast-paced world all it takes is to pause for as few as four seconds-the length of a deep breath-allowing us to make intentional and tactical choices that lead to better outcomes.
4 Seconds reveals:
* Why listening-not arguing-is the best strategy for changing someone's mind
* Why setting goals can actually harm performance
* How to use strategic disengagement to recover focus and willpower
* How taking responsibility for someone else's failure can actually help your team
Practical and insightful, 4 Seconds provides simple solutions to create the results you want without the stress.
