Expand Time, Transform Your Emotions and Unleash Your Natural Brilliance

Discover the tiny changes in behaviour that the world's most remarkable people use to excel. 'Packed with wisdom' GARETH SOUTHGATE 'Extraordinary and empowering' LAURA KENNY 'Full of tough love and practical wisdom' BEAR GRYLLS --- What if you could change your life in less than five minutes? We assume that the highest-performing people are wired differently; that their success is down to nothing more than raw talent. But in the course of 400 conversations with the world's most remarkable individuals, Jake Humphrey and Damian Hughes have found the opposite: real success comes from small, often imperceptible changes in behaviour. They are called micro-habits. Drawing on exclusive interviews with leading high performers - from Olympic-medallists to billionaire entrepreneurs - Micro-Habits introduces the forty-eight simple tools that anyone can use to achieve excellence. The best thing? They work right away. --- Drawing on conversations with . . . Ali Abdaal ¿ Fernando Alonso ¿ Usain Bolt ¿ Stuart Broad ¿ Dan Carter ¿ Sabrina Cohen-Hatton ¿ Brian Cox ¿ Tom Daley ¿ Jason Fox ¿ Pippa Grange ¿ Alex Honnold ¿ Emily Maitlis ¿ Joe Marler ¿ Matthew McConaughey ¿ Lando Norris ¿ Sara Pascoe ¿ Gordon Ramsay ¿ Stephanie Shirley ¿ Simon Sinek ¿ Chris Voss ¿ Sarina Wiegman . . . and many more. From the Sunday Times bestselling authors of High Performance.

Tiny Changes That Supercharge High Performance

Micro-Habits

'A gem of a book, serious and clever yet funny and playful' Financial Times 'Professor of philosophy and a public intellectual for the internet age, Callard shows how Socrates can inform the way we live our lives - from romance to politics' Guardian Socrates has been hiding in plain sight. We call him the father of Western philosophy, but what exactly are his philosophical views? He is famous for his humility, but readers often find him arrogant and condescending. We parrot his claim that 'the unexamined life is not worth living,' yet take no steps to live examined ones. We know that he was tried, convicted, and executed for 'corrupting the youth,' but freely assign Socratic dialogues to today's youths, to introduce them to philosophy. We've lost sight of what made him so dangerous. In Open Socrates, acclaimed philosopher Agnes Callard recovers the radical energy at the centre of Socrates' thought and shows why it is still the way to a good life. Callard draws our attention to Socrates' startling discovery that we don't know how to ask ourselves the most important questions- about how we should live, and how we might change. Before a person even has a chance to reflect, their bodily desires or the forces of social conformity have already answered on their behalf. To ask the most important questions, we need help. Callard argues that the true ambition of the famous "Socratic method" is to reveal what one human being can be to another. You can use another person in many ways-for survival, for pleasure, for comfort- but you are engaging them to the fullest when you call on them to help answer your questions and challenge your answers. Here Callard shows that Socrates' method allows us to make progress in thinking about how to manage romantic love, how to confront one's own death, and how to approach politics. In the process, she gives us nothing less than a new ethics to live by.

The Case for a Philosophical Life

Open Socrates

The inspiring guide to letting go of competition, reducing stress and living a happier, more authentic life - from the 15-million-copy bestselling author of the Japanese self-help phenomenon, The Courage to Be Disliked Are you tired of trying? Break the Burnout Cycle. Choose Ordinary. In The Courage to be Ordinary, Ichiro Kishimi speaks to everyone burned out by hustle, comparison and the pressure to prove their worth. His message is disarmingly simple: stop trying to stand out. Being ordinary isn't failure - it's freedom. Freedom from constant competition, from chasing approval, from feeling habitually tense. Letting go of the need to be special will finally give your strengths the space they need to shine. It's time to release the pressure and embrace the superpower you really need to succeed: The Power of Ordinary.

The Courage to be Ordinary

Do you wish you could decode people? Do you want a formula for charisma? Do you want to know exactly what to say to your boss, your date or your networking partner? You need to know how people work. As a human behaviour investigator, Vanessa Van Edwards studies the hidden forces that drive our behaviour patterns in her lab - and she's cracked the code. In Captivate she shares a wealth of shortcuts, systems and behaviour hacks derived from her research, to help you take charge of interactions at work and at home. You'll learn how to execute a social game plan to navigate any social situation; how to speed-read faces for 7 universal 'micro-expressions' that can be used to predict people's emotions; and much more besides. When you understand the laws of human behaviour you can get along with anyone. With Vanessa's help, you will never interact in the same way again.

A Declaration of Interdependence to Mend a Fractured World

On Mindful Democracy

'For anyone who has wondered whether they'll ever be in charge of their emotions, this book has the answer: yes' - Angela Duckworth, author of Grit 'This book does much more than make sense of emotions - it breaks new ground on how to manage them' - Adam Grant, author of Think Again Whether it's anxiety about the dentist, boiling rage when we're stuck in traffic or devastation after a painful break-up, our lives are filled with situations that send us spiralling. But as difficult as our emotions can be, they are also a superpower. When they're activated in the right ways and at the right time, they function like an immune system, alerting us to our surroundings, telling us how to react to a situation and helping us make the right choices. But how do we make our emotions work for us rather than against us? Acclaimed psychologist Dr Ethan Kross has devoted his scientific career to answering this question. In Shift, he dispels common myths - for instance, that avoidance is toxic or that we should always strive to live in the moment - and provides a new framework for shifting our emotions so they don't take over our lives. Shift weaves groundbreaking research with riveting stories of people struggling and succeeding to manage their emotions - from a mother whose fear prompted her to make a spur-of-the-moment decision that would save her daughter's life mid-flight to a nuclear code-carrying Navy SEAL who learned how to embrace both joy and pain during a hellish training activity. Dr Kross shows us that we already have access to a wide array of tools and demonstrates how to harness them to be healthier and more successful. Filled with actionable advice, cutting-edge research and inspiring stories, Shift puts the power back into our hands, so we can control our emotions without them controlling us - and help others do the same. 'Packed with gems of wisdom and endless actionable advice on emotional regulation, Shift is essential reading for everyone. I couldn't put it down' - Chris Evans 'A revolutionary guide to mastering your emotional life' - Charles Duhigg, author of Supercommunicators

'Lucid, entertaining and precise... a brilliant warning about the gamification of everyday life' Tim Clare, Guardian Is this the game you want to be playing? Scoring systems are everywhere. Underpinning our daily lives - whether it's the fit bits on our wrists, likes on social media, and even school rankings - they have become pervasive and increasingly dangerous, warping our desires and outsourcing our values to external institutions. Instead of encouraging us to be more playful, to take pleasure in the journey of striving towards a goal, institutions, corporations and bureaucracies weaponize scoring systems to impose their own interests. No matter what, we always seem to be playing by someone else's rules. In The Score, philosopher C. Thi Nguyen shows us how this newly 'gamified' world has fundamentally captured our value systems, turning what might be moral or personal life choices into numerical data, and forcing us to prioritise what can be measured and monetized over what is truly meaningful to us. A life-long lover of online and board games himself, Nguyen argues that we should not stop playing games but rather take a step back and become more aware of their immersive and profound power, so that we might chart a way towards more creative and joyful lives. To start playing our own game.

'May this book inspire readers to help lead meaningful lives with peace and joy' The Dalai Lama 'A practical guide to leading a fulfilled life' Daniel Goleman Heal anxiety, isolation, deep sadness and conflict with this neuroscience-backed programme for actively practicing compassion. Imagine becoming the person who instinctively brings kindness into every interaction. One who is remembered for their warmth and generosity. One who lifts up those around them, who remains steady and unshaken, fierce when necessary, yet never reactive or consumed by anger. We can all be that person who creates a sense of belonging, who connects with others at a deeper level, wherever they go. Tasked by the Dalai Lama to find new ways of sharing ancient Tibetan wisdom with the modern world, Lobsang Tenzin Negi has been at the forefront of compassion science for over 25 years. Now, guiding us through 7 basic steps, Dr Negi reveals how to bring forth the best parts of ourselves in just 15 minutes a day. With practices to train our brain to harness the compassion that evolution has wired into us, we learn to:<ul><li>focus our attention</li><li>build resilience</li><li>increase our capacity for connection, and</li><li>awaken a sense of appreciation</li></ul>Make compassion a way of life and find stability, connection, belonging and purpose in a changing world.

Leverage your biology to support the healing of anxiety, isolation, deep sadness and conflict with this research-tested program for actively practicing compassion. Lobsang Tenzin Negi is a Tibetan monk turned Emory University professor, who was tasked by the Dalai Lama himself to find new ways of sharing ancient Tibetan wisdom with the modern world. The culmination of this work, a method called Cognitively-Based Compassion Training (CBCT), has been proven to be more effective than mindfulness in reducing anxiety and depression (and just so happens to be the key to a kinder, more collaborative society too). Guiding us through 8 basic steps, Dr Negi reveals that compassion is a natural instinct, and shows how CBCT can shift our internal wiring to unlock this simple superpower. Each chapter blends traditional Buddhist stories, contemporary anecdotes from across the world, scientific evidence, practical advice, guided meditation and a three-step exercise, to give us a comprehensive and memorable method for improving our lives.

Seven Practices to Cultivate Resilience, Connection and a Joyous Life

Engaged Compassion

Why do we love who we love? Why do we stay in unfulfilling relationships, or stray from rewarding ones? Why do some couples crash and burn while others stay madly in love? In The Intimate Animal, Dr Justin Garcia - one of the world's leading experts on the science of love and sex - reveals that the answer to these questions lies in our evolution. We are biologically wired to connect with each other, yet our inner intimate animal is often at odds with the way we live now. Dr Garcia explains the multiplicity of human sexual and romantic behaviour using cutting-edge research from his team of researchers at the world-leading Kinsey Institute, including: - Why we have evolved to live and die for love - Why searching for 'the one' is futile - Why we are wired for 'social monogamy' but not necessarily 'sexual monogamy' - Why some people are more likely to cheat With practical tips on love and lust - the two biological systems often in painful conflict - The Intimate Animal is the essential, research-backed guide for anyone who wants to forge deeper, more intimate connections in these disconnected times. 'Garcia brings us back to the animal inside to remind us that even when connection, love, and desire feel elusive, it's exactly what we're wired for' Esther Perel, bestselling author of Mating in Captivity 'Fascinating and useful' The Telegraph Magazine 'A thoughtful and well-researched treatise' The Sunday Times

An evolutionary exploration of love, sex and relationships. Dr. Justin Garcia is a world-leading expert on the science of love and sex. In his first book, he explores the multiplicity of human sexual and romantic behaviour, the forces behind our intimacy instincts, and why humans across the globe live and die for love. Our competing evolutionary desires for sex and intimacy create highs and lows in our romantic and sexual lives. The Intimate Animal provides practical tips on love and attraction - two biological systems often in painful conflict - and presents compelling case studies to help deepen and strengthen our relationships. Sharing the knowledge that he has acquired working on the frontlines of modern love and sex research, Dr. Garcia helps us to understand the science behind a spectrum of human intimate experiences. From the intimacy crisis, physical affection, redefining gender roles and courtship norms, to understanding why we stay in abusive relationships and stray from fulfilling ones, this book will help you understand how to successfully look for love and cultivate a rewarding relationship in an ever-changing, high-speed digital age. From infatuation to heartbreak, The Intimate Animal offers us the first evolutionary understanding of the entire life course of our intimate relationships - how we date, mate, break and remake our love lives.
