How to Begin by Michael Bungay Stanier
We unlock our greatness by working on the hard things. Coaching expert and bestselling author Michael Bungay Stanier (MBS) is on a mission: to help people achieve their most ambitious, daunting, worthy projects. But how can you get across the threshold so you can make bolder, more courageous choices in other areas of your life? The secret doesn't lie in mastering new habits and hacks; it's about downloading a new operating system for your life. MBS shows you how to regain power and make forward progression on projects and dreams that are meaningful to you. First, figure out The Plan. Be unabashedly ambitious for yourself and the world, commit to the work of hard change, and begin your hero's journey. Then, follow The Threshold Process. Set a worthy goal, weigh the prizes and punishments of acting (or not acting), and then take the first steps toward that goal. Instead of doubting yourself, fearing you'll make a mistake, and feeling like you need to play "small" so you don't disrupt the status quo, start showing up for yourself so you can show up for the world. Don't regret a life half-lived. Stepping up and pursuing your dreams is hard ... and it's exhilarating, and it's important. Let MBS show you how to get clear, get confident, and start anything that matters.
"Piercingly frank, funny, gorgeous, vulnerable, and ultimately really damn helpful" - Julie Lythcott-Haims, New York Times bestselling author of How to Raise an Adult "Of particular appeal for those of us who instinctively recoil from self-help woo-woo and just want to get on with doing Great Work that leaves the world a bit better than we found it." - Courtney Hohne, chief storyteller for Moonshots, X (formerly Google X) "A friendly voice and a guiding hand." - Austin Kleon, New York Times bestselling author of Steal Like an Artist "Eminently practical, clever, delightful, and beautifully rendered--a non-fiction Where the Wild Things Are for adult dreamers and doers." - Whitney Johnson, bestselling author of Smart Growth and Disrupt Yourself "I loved this book, and that's coming from a gal who's never been big on goals." - Liz Wiseman, New York Times bestselling author of Impact Players and Multipliers "Powerful, magical, and compelling. We don't need more time; we simply need to decide." - Seth Godin, author of The Practice
