      Oltre il denaro e il potere: la terza metrica per ridefinire successo e felicità

      • 352pagine
      • 13 ore di lettura

      Il risveglio personale di Arianna Huffington inizia con un incidente che la costringe a riflettere sulla sua vita e sul significato del successo. Co-fondatrice dell’Huffington Post, celebrata come una delle donne più influenti, Arianna si rende conto che il suo straordinario successo, misurato attraverso il lavoro incessante e l'esaurimento, non è ciò che desidera. Dopo aver consultato vari medici, si chiede se questo sia davvero il modello di vita che vuole seguire. La risposta è chiara: è necessario un nuovo approccio per prosperare. L'attuale definizione di successo, legata al superlavoro e alla mancanza di sonno, non funziona né per le persone né per le aziende. Da questa consapevolezza scaturisce l'idea di ridefinire il successo, introducendo una "terza metrica" che consideri il benessere e la capacità di fare la differenza nel mondo. In questo libro intimo, l'autrice condivide le sue esperienze e le difficoltà nel gestire le priorità, esplorando studi recenti su psicologia, meditazione e consapevolezza. Le sue scoperte rivelano effetti trasformativi su felicità e completezza, proponendo una rivoluzione culturale destinata a cambiare le nostre convinzioni su ciò che conta davvero.

      Discover the Hidden Keys to Success

      Relying solely on willpower to lose weight, improve relationships, or excel at work often leads to failure. The surrounding environment is too powerful and stressful to overcome through sheer determination. To thrive in today’s world, one must proactively shape their environment. This concept is explored by Benjamin Hardy, who draws on extensive research and personal experiences from a challenging upbringing. He outlines how individuals can transform their lives through impactful environmental changes, such as: * Creating “enriched environments” that challenge you and encourage personal investment. * Growing into your goals by establishing multiple layers of accountability. * Taking on a leadership role to enhance skill development and commitment, even if you feel unprepared. * Rotating your environments to break free from ruts by changing your physical surroundings regularly. By implementing simple strategies like removing elements that conflict with your values—such as junk food and negative influences—and introducing new tools like fasting or positive triggers, you can actively shape your surroundings. These approaches enable you to consciously evolve into the person you aspire to be.
