Personal Development

A rare thing: a book that makes you think differently about the way you think - inorder to optimise your life, overcome obstacles, and reach your full potential. Anatomy of a Breakthrough is a landmark new smart-thinking title that will help anyone optimise their mind to overcome the obstacles holding them back.

It does for self-development what Atomic Habits did for with behavioural hacking and Thinking Fast and Slow did for understanding ourselves. Everyone, at some time, will go through episodes of simply being stuck; whether it'sin our careers or relationships, our personal, professional or artistic lives. We callthis things like 'being stuck in a rut', 'having writer's block' or 'being frozen in place'. This is not just harmful in the short-term, but is often chronic, dangerous to ourmental health and w ell-being, and with severe consequences to our success anddevelopment. Anatomy of a Breakthroughis the remedy to identifying and overcooking the 'friction points' holding usback. Adam Alter offers an brilliantly applicable new framew ork for not only getting'unstuck' but also going on to thrive. Critically, he introduces us to the Friction Audit:a test to work out w here our sticking points lie, categorises them as existing in ourHead, Heart or Habits. Unstuck then takes us through a 5-step process to strive for more and to thrive. Anatomy of a Breakthroughis the key for overcoming friction points and reaching our full potential.
