This is a really good book, written by an executive coach, about changed behavior and regret.
A few concepts:
-Fate is the hand of cards we've been dealt. Choice is how we play the hand.
-Regret should be used to grow, embrace the pain and the message.
-We do not appreciate inertia's power over us.
-Meaningful behavioral change is hard.
-No one can make us change.
-Some people they want to change, but they don't.
-Achieving change is not necessarily easy but it may be easy.
-There is a difference between understanding and doing.
-We are superior planners and inferior doers.
-Change doesn't happen overnight.
-Success is the sum of small efforts repeated day in and day out.
-If we make the effort, we will get better. If we don't, we won't
While these might sound like platitudes (and they are a little), the real wisdom is in the advice and examples.Solid advice given for implementing change and reducing regret in your life. A very good book that is potentially life-changing.
