We throw the terms introvert and extrovert around constantly, and use them to label ourselves and everyone we know. But do we know what they really mean? How are different personality types created, and what really drives our actions on a daily basis? The Science of Introverts (And Everyone Else), will uncover everything you never knew about yourself and others, and will teach you how to take advantage of who you are, and capitalize on your unique strengths.
Publisher's Summary
Practical, real-life methods for becoming the luckiest person you know - with no lucky charms or rituals needed.
Luck: We're not sure what it is, but we know we want it on our side. Is luck a cosmic force that we can randomly stumble upon, or is there something real that people who we consider lucky have discovered? The Science of Being Lucky is an in-depth look at what all lucky people have in common and how they set themselves up for success time after time.
Put success into your own hands, not fate's. The Science of Being Lucky takes you on a science-based journey into what luck is, what we think it is, and how to get more of it in your life. The journey begins by breaking down and defining the lucky breaks, coincidences, and serendipitous events in our lives, then delves into the specific traits, life factors, and perspectives that create lucky outcomes. The Science of Being Lucky will open your eyes to what is behind each moment you would call lucky and give you a concrete action plan to create more of the same.
Luck doesn't have to be just fantasy. Become immune to bad luck. Peter Hollins has studied psychology and peak human performance for over a dozen years and is a best-selling author. He has worked with dozens of individuals to unlock their potential and put them on the path to success. His writing draws on his academic, coaching, and research experience. He's no stranger to bad luck, having broken the same toe three times, but he's found ways to reverse his luck and live the good life. Ditch the lucky underwear and rabbit's foot.
