Publisher's summary

Are you pissed off that life didn't come with an instruction manual? Do you find yourself struggling to figure out what you really want in life? Or do you know exactly what you want, but can't ever get it because you're trapped by fears, unwanted thoughts, and unshakeable habits?

Are you successful in certain areas, but still feel like something is missing in your relationships, finances, physical health, or overall happiness?

No matter what your challenge is, the root cause of why we get stuck in any area of life is fundamentally the same. The good news is that when you understand what's really been secretly holding you back, you'll finally have the map for how to escape. You're about to discover:

• The secret to getting answers when you're feeling lost, confused, and have no idea what to do or where to even begin
• How to tap into your inner strength to experience more motivation, happiness, and fulfillment on demand - regardless of what's happening in your life
• How to get whatever you want, even if you're stressed out, busy, or have a million excuses
• What the six things are that drive all of your behavior and how to tap into them to reprogram any thought or habit on a neurological level
• What the most common fear is that holds people back, and why you'll never overcome it until you understand this one simple thing
• Why a force stronger than willpower may be the missing link to getting yourself out of any rut
• Why much of the great advice you've heard, especially from self-help and personal development gurus, may be the very thing that's keeping you stuck.
• Why looking to find your life's purpose is almost always going to backfire on you.

Just what I needed

I purchased this book in the audio version first and then after listening to this book twice, I decided to purchase the actual book because it is full of thought-provoking action-packed steps to get you unstuck. I am helping a friend who is depressed and the tools in this book has helped me help her get out of her own way. I feel like a life coach using the tools in the book. One of the examples is taking cold showers. I personally tried this method before bringing it to my friend to see if it worked and I noticed a huge shift in my life.
