Change the Way You See Everything Through Asset-Based Thinking

Rossi, Josephine

Going for Gold T+Deditors look at three more books to help readers achieve goals in different ways. Change the Way You See Everything Through Asset-Based Thinking By Kathryn D. Cramer and Hank Wasiak (Free Press, April 2006, $22.95)

It’s perfectly natural for most people to focus on what is wrong, missing, or not working in their lives, say the authors. They describe that kind of thinking as deficit-based, and they say it can deprive us of the energy and conviction that we need to fully excel and exceed our goals.

Instead, they advocate focusing on what is right, or asset-based thinking, to emphasize our strengths and the opportunities that life presents us. By changing our outlooks, we become open to successful thinking and behaviors that help us do things we can’t even imagine.

Designed to be read quickly, Change the Way You See Everything… is concise and to the point. It’s filled with real-life stories that encourage and inspire. The book pops from beginning to end with unique fonts and visually arresting photos-a delightful departure from the average self-help business book.
