About the Author

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER ¿ The internationally bestselling author of The Happiness Advantage and Big Potential illuminates how harnessing our beliefs can influence our success in the real world. Same world. Different beliefs. Different outcomes. The greatest predictor of your future is the beliefs you hold about the world. In this extraordinary book, world-renowned researcher and author Shawn Achor illuminates how beliefs change the math about what is possible and probable in our lives. And by changing the math, beliefs change our path. Drawing on two decades of research, as well as his work with NASA, the NFL, and over a third of the Fortune 100 companies, Shawn has discovered that the predictive power of beliefs has increased significantly. Beliefs about ourselves, money, the world, politics, faith, and work do more than shape the lens through which we see the world. They shape what happens next. Scientifically speaking, beliefs don't just reflect reality. Beliefs bend reality. Unfortunately, our beliefs can be empowering or they can be destructive. During what Achor calls the Great Drift, we have seen the staggering rise of the Four Horsemen of the Modern World: burnout, anxiety, loneliness, and depression. We are underperforming our true potential. But there is hope. Stunning new research in this book reveals the seven most predictive "core beliefs" that alter our future health, success, wealth, and education. Scientifically, these core beliefs take the cap off our potential, enrich us, strengthen us, and heal us. Shawn explores the six main ways of changing your and others' beliefs using research-based strategies he has tested everywhere from Wall Street to impoverished schools in Africa, from Camp Pendleton to Camp David: ¿ The Disaster Elevator: change what part of the brain processes the world. ¿ The Memory DeLorean: change the memory. ¿ Stopping Negative Mantras: change the language. ¿ Creating a Neural Tribe: change the sources. ¿ Starting the Wave: change the contagious actions. ¿ Common Texts, Common Action: change the texts. The Power of Beliefs shows how seven core beliefs predict your present, bend the probability of future success, and, in the modern world, are the key to creating a better life for you and for others.

How Strengthening Seven Core Beliefs Predicts Greater Success and a Better Life

'The poet laureate of human emotion' ELIZABETH DAY 'Left me feeling wiser and more open to life' OLIVER BURKEMAN 'A work of genius' INDIA KNIGHTChange the way you think about love.When it comes to relationships, why do we find things so difficult? Drawing on more than forty years of candid and surprising conversations with his patients, psychoanalyst Stephen Grosz shows us how we can be better at love.In the intimate space of the consulting room, we meet the woman who can't post her wedding invitations but then, decades later, can't decide whether to get divorced; the ex-nun whose unconscious fear of pregnancy drove her into the convent; and the friendship group that explodes when an adulterous affair begins. Compelling, revealing and full of wisdom, Love's Labour shows us that only when we see ourselves and our world clearly are we truly ready to love one another.'Powerful and compelling' GUARDIAN 'This is a beautiful book' NIGELLA LAWSON 'This man could save your marriage' SUNDAY TIMES

Seven Myths About Money

From the Global Head of Human Performance at WHOOP, a data-powered guide to human potential, revealing that recovery is the hidden driver of peak performance. We often equate peak performance with relentless effort-early mornings, intense workouts, and unwavering discipline. But what if the true catalyst for excellence lies not in exertion, but in restoration? Pulling from one of the world's largest physiological datasets and more than two decades of experience operating in high-stakes, high-stress environments, Holmes makes a compelling case: your downtime is your competitive advantage. Dr. Kristen Holmes, psychophysiologist and Global Head of Human Performance at WHOOP, challenges conventional wisdom by revealing that recovery is not a luxury-it's a necessity. She demonstrates that aligning with our body's natural rhythms is the key to unlocking sustained vitality and presence, and bridges the gap between cutting-edge science and practical application. You'll discover how to:<ul><li>Align with your biological rhythms: Learn how circadian alignment affects hormonal health, cognitive function, sleep quality, and emotional well-being, and how to synchronize your daily routines and live with more joy and energy.</li><li>Decode the science of recovery: Understand why recovery isn't a luxury but a necessity, and how metrics like Heart Rate Variability (HRV) and sleep consistency are critical indicators of resilience and readiness.</li><li>Translate data into action: Transform complex biometric data into daily rituals that reinforce your desired identity and support continuous growth.</li><li>Shape your emotional resilience: Explore Dr. Holmes's innovative frameworks-HEAL (Heart, Energy, Autonomy, Love), TEAM (Time, Expectations, Attachments, Memory), and PEAC (Purpose, Efficacy, Autonomy, Connection)-each offering a unique lens to understand and shape your internal narratives and overall well-being.</li></ul>Whether you're an elite athlete, a corporate leader, or someone seeking deeper meaning in your life, Aligned serves as a field guide to living at full capacity, in tune with both body and mind.

Big Trust

The reason you feel stuck isn't because you are not working hard enough or lack discipline. It's because your vision, strategy and habits are misaligned. Founder and entrepreneur Hermione Olivia knows what it's like to live a life that looks successful from the outside: packed schedules, never-ending to-do lists, saying yes to everything. But when did success become about ticking every box? When was the last time we asked ourselves whether this life is actually the one we want to live? After walking away from a six-figure CEO role to answer this very question, Hermione has discovered that true success doesn't come from doing more, but from designing our lives and careers with true intention. CEO Yourself is the culmination of that journey; a unique model of personal leadership that blends insights and practical tools to:<ul><li>build a vision unique to you</li><li>develop a personal strategy that executes achievable milestones</li><li>grow into the person you were always meant to be with supporting habits that create momentum</li><li>step into consistent and sustainable personal growth</li></ul>Are you ready to take charge?

Let Go

Most people think a great life is built on big moments. It isn't. A great life is built on small decisions made consistently over time. A missed priority here. A neglected relationship there. Too much pressure. Too little margin. Over time, those small choices quietly shape the direction of a life. But there is another way to live. After decades of leadership, raising a family, and helping people navigate life's biggest decisions, Chris Hodges discovered something that changes everything: The quality of your life is determined by the principles that guide it. Principles simplify decisions. Principles steady you in difficult seasons. Principles help you build a life that lasts. &nbsp;In Legacy Letters, a practical and deeply personal book, Hodges shares the timeless principles that have shaped his life, leadership, relationships, and legacy. These aren't theories or motivational slogans. They are lessons learned through real life-through mentors, mistakes, family, and decades of walking alongside people through the highs and lows of life. This book is designed to be read one principle a day for 30 days, giving you a clear framework for building a better life. Then you'll spend the rest of the year putting those principles into practice-because principles are not meant to be memorized, they are meant to be lived. Inside, you'll discover powerful principles such as:The Big Rocks Principle - start life right by putting first things firstThe Calendar Principle - take control of your schedule before something else doesThe Compounding Principle - small daily disciplines create extraordinary results over timeThe Margin Principle - create breathing room so pressure doesn't control your lifeThe Who Principle - the people around you shape the future ahead of youThe Green-Grass Principle - the best relationships are the ones you invest inThe Goldmine Principle - learn to see the potential in peopleThe Orchestra Principle - life works better when it's built around "we" instead ofThe Significance Principle - the greatest life is the one that helps others win&nbsp;Filled with memorable phrases, practical wisdom, and honest stories from a life of leadership, Legacy Letters will help you:Make wiser decisionsBuild stronger relationshipsCreate margin and clarity in a crowded worldFocus your time on what matters mostLeave a legacy that lasts&nbsp;Because methods change. Trends change. Circumstances change. But principles never do. Live by the right principles, and you won't just succeed. You'll build a life that truly works.
