Book Description
First published in 1998, Following Through shines a spotlight into the black hole in inner space where good intentions disappear. It reveals the startling reason why even people who are truly serious about making life-improving changes often fail. Although we often blame poor follow through on not having enough motivation, willpower, self-discipline or character, Levinson and Greider argue that the real culprit is the mixed-up way the human mind designed. The mind, they insist, simply isn't hard-wired for follow-through. And as much as we -- individuals, society, and especially the self-improvement industry -- like to pretend otherwise, good intentions do not automatically drive our behavior. And continuing to expect them to will only lead to disappointment, frustration and failure. But Following Through won't leave you discouraged. It will show you how facing the truth about what it really takes to consistently turn your good intentions into life-improving action can change everything for the better. It will teach you bold new strategies for getting yourself to do whatever you intelligently decide you should do. For customer reviews, please see listings for previous editions of Following Through.

The Follow-Through Factor
Author: Gene C. Hayden
Publisher: McClelland & Stewart Limited
ISBN: 0771038186
Category : Self-Help
Languages : en
Pages : 274
Book Description
A practical guide to achieving your goals — from starting a business to running a marathon — despite anything and everything life throws at you. We all have an idea or project that we'd like to pursue, and countless reasons why we can't: it may be that it's too expensive, or we lack the time, confidence, or skills. Inevitably, there are obstacles that get between us and our aspirations, but those who achieve their goals know that strategies exist for getting past these barriers. First as a journalist and then as a certified life and career coach, Gene C. Hayden interviewed achievers from all walks of life — artists, executives, professionals, small business owners — who tackled insecurities and obstacles on the road to success. Those consulted didn't have any special advantages to ease their way, but they did have the follow-through factor, a practical mindset that drives action towards a goal, regardless of circumstance. And most importantly, Gene tells us that this is something anyone can learn. With her vast experience, realistic advice, and encouraging voice, Gene is the perfect guide for those who are eager to achieve their ambitions.
