Getting unstuck

break free of the plateau effect

  • 1 Want to read

The authors show the different kinds of plateaus that can hold you back and how they can be overcome. Using case studies of both success and failure -- including Derek Jeter, Blockbuster, and Google -- they identify how to avoid pitfalls and to incorporate the peak behaviors that place breakthroughs within anyone's grasp. If you've ever given more and more to a broken relationship, a weight-loss regimen, or a stalled career -- only to get less and less in return -- Getting Unstuck will change your life.
