You Are Not In Control According to research, 99% of the thoughts, emotions and actions you had today are the same as the ones you had yesterday. We simply repeat things unconsciously. We think we're in control but we really are not. Our programming simply repeats things daily. You cannot fight this programming with willpower. You need to consciously reprogram it with new routines so that it works for you, rather than against you, in achieving your goals. External Results Are An Illusion. Change Yourself And Your External Results Change The default thing we try to do if we're not getting the external results we seek is to reach out and try to change the results, often without changing ourselves. Striving to create an external result that is not in alignment with who you currently are internally is really a case of chasing shadows. The reality is that the external world you see is simply a reflection of your state of consciousness. The only way to change your external world is to change yourself internally. So for the external changes you want to see in your life you need to first detail out the external goals, and then map them to internal changes you need to make in order to achieve them. With this shift in thinking, there is no need for you to get anxious about making external changes that are outside your control. You just need to focus on making the required internal changes as internal change is all within your control. Your External World Is Simply A Mirror Of You It can be difficult for you to really see yourself due to the multitude of smokescreens and the fact we humans are masters at self-deception. However an accurate way of seeing yourself is in your external circumstances. External reality acts as a mirror to enable us see what's really going on inside. This is good news because when you become aware of this law you realise all the power to change your reality lies within you. The reflection never lies, just as you cannot stand in front of a physical mirror and see a different person in your reflection. The law of correspondence is as real as gravity. Growth Is All That Matters Growth is what matters in life, not the material things we acquire. Material things can disappear in a flash but growth remains forever. If you don't try new things and deal with whatever learning curve is required then you don't grow. In This Book You'll Learn: The difference between the ego and consciousness and the role of the ego in shaping your life. How to use challenges in life as welcome tools to create a better version of yourself instead of seeing them as bad. How to use the Law of Correspondence which is always in operation in your life whether you're aware of it or not. How to transform yourself to the person who can automatically get the kind of results you want in life. How to use the power of delayed gratification to make your life easier. A step by step guide for how to create and instil positive habits and make them effortless within 30 days. How to increase your productive capacity so that you can get more done without necessarily working harder. How to use the power of giving to get the things you want in life.What to know more?

Unlock your potential and finally move forward. A recent study showed that when doctors tell heart patients they will die if they don't change their habits, only one in seven will be able to follow through successfully. Desire and motivation aren't enough: even when it's literally a matter of life or death, the ability to change remains maddeningly elusive. Given that the status quo is so potent, how can we change ourselves and our organizations? In Immunity to Change, authors Robert Kegan and Lisa Lahey show how our individual beliefs--along with the collective mind-sets in our organizations--combine to create a natural but powerful immunity to change. By revealing how this mechanism holds us back, Kegan and Lahey give us the keys to unlock our potential and finally move forward. And by pinpointing and uprooting our own immunities to change, we can bring our organizations forward with us. This persuasive and practical book, filled with hands-on diagnostics and compelling case studies, delivers the tools you need to overcome the forces of inertia and transform your life and your work.

An 800-CEO-READ Staff Pick Shortlisted for the Thinkers50 Breakthrough Idea Award A Financial Times Business Book of the Month “For any would-be activists who hear the voice: ‘not me’ or ‘not now,’ Merchant makes the strong case for ‘yes you’ and ‘yes now’—and even shows you how to jump in.” —Van Jones, host of CNN’s The Messy Truth, author of Rebuild the Dream and The Green Collar Economy “The Power of Onlyness is a book for our times. . . . Merchant forces us to dig deep, into the book and ourselves, and it goes beyond self-knowledge and self-empowerment, obliterating the fear of otherness with an understanding of the onlyness of us all.” —Sally Haldorson, 800-CEO-READ An innovation expert illuminates why your power to make a difference is no longer bound by your status If you’re like most people, you wish you had the ability to make a difference, but you don’t have the credentials, or a seat at the table, can’t get past the gatekeepers, and aren’t high enough in any hierarchy to get your ideas heard. In The Power of Onlyness, Nilofer Merchant, one of the world’s top-ranked business thinkers, reveals that, in fact, we have now reached an unprecedented moment of opportunity for your ideas to “make a dent” on the world. Now that the Internet has liberated ideas to spread through networks instead of hierarchies, power is no longer determined by your status, but by “onlyness”—that spot in the world only you stand in, a function of your distinct history and experiences, visions and hopes. If you build upon your signature ingredient of purpose and connect with those who are equally passionate, you have a lever by which to move the world. This new ability is already within your grasp, but to command it, you need to know how to meaningfully mobilize others around your ideas. Through inspirational and instructive stories, Merchant reveals proven strategies to unleash the centrifugal force of a new idea, no matter how weird or wild it may seem. Imagine how much better the world could be if every idea could have its shot, not just the ones that come from expected people and places. Which long-intractable problems would we solve, what new levels of creativity would be unlocked, and who might innovate a breakthrough that could benefit ourselves, our communities, and especially our economy. This limitless potential of onlyness has already been recognized by Thinkers 50, the Oscars of management, which cited it one of the five ideas that will shape business for next twenty years. Why do some individuals make scalable impact with their ideas, regardless of their power or status? The Power of Onlyness unravels this mystery for the first time so that anyone can make a dent. Even you.
