Personal Development

Would you choose a life which is HARDER than it needs to be, or would you much prefer more EASE, PEACE and FULFILMENT?

That might be a dumb-arse question, but here’s the REALITY.

We knowing or unknowingly, consciously or unconsciously, make life WAY harder than it needs to be. Period.

Here are the main reasons:

· We have blind spots (we don’t know what we don’t know).

· We were poorly taught (or were never taught).

· We don’t realize how much the ‘little’ stuff adds up (to BIG stuff).

· We don’t consider how big of a pain in our butt some choices will become.

· We get too lazy, complacent or sloppy (and don’t realise the consequences).

In this light, insightful, practical, resource-rich and entertaining book, let long-time Mindset Coach, ex-Army Major and former Olympic Games security consultant teach you - plain and simple - where not to place your foot if you want to avoid the figurative doggie do-do (aka: shit) in life. Making your life (a LOT) less hard, and a whole lot more joyful, peaceful and fulfilling.

Are you read to be shown your blind-spots (and a better way to navigate them)?

The book comes with a great range of practical resources and access to some of Carl’s other Audiobooks.

Carl is also the author of The Guidebook Series, The Successful Mind and Decision Making Mastery. He has a podcast called Life Masterclass and conducts seminars online and around the world, from his tropical home base in Bali, where is has been coaching people in-person and remotely for over 16-years.

The book is accompanied by a great range of free Resources and Support.
