Would like to see you on the road to success coaching and support outstanding coach for personal growth, a former paratrooper, commando with business education? If so, then the author of the book "Without self-pity," Erik Bertrand Larssen (Erik Bertrand Larssen) is just the person you need.
Erik Bertrand Larssen
Norwegian author and trainer in personal development. Both of his books have become bestsellers and have been translated into many languages. The total circulation of his first book in Norway was 223 000 copies - that is almost one per every 20 people.
Of course, the book is not worth waiting banal screams style: "Come on, monkeys! Or do you think live forever?! ", but to face the truth about yourself you need to be ready. Although, frankly, I do not quite understand what is the title of the book.
Ikdal Adam (Adam Ikdal), Boston Consulting Group Manager in NorwayLarssen feature is that it causes people to change their behavior and life, without feeling that they have something to sacrifice.
So what to expect self-flagellation disappoint once: instructions and reasons for masochism in the book there. Confidently and without beating about the bush, but steadily, and mercifully the author leads the reader to realize the need changes in life. Nobody picks unripe fruit, causing it to violently ripen on the windowsill. Ripe fruit themselves fall into the hands of our consciousness.
about the author
But before we proceed to get acquainted with the book, a good idea to learn a little about the author. identity of the author - an important factor when choosing books. If the author in practice has not achieved at least some results in the field, he touches the book, the way would be nice and convincing theory may sound, I would not waste my time on such a book.
Eric grew up in Norway. In the class the boy was always the smallest and peers constantly he was abused. When Eric was 12, his classmates piled snow by the collar, and it was the last straw. After returning home, the boy decided he'd had enough. He was determined to be the most resilient and courageous person in Norway. And it seemed the ideal paratroopers.
Six years later, he began to build a career in the Armed Forces of Norway. Twice withstood the test of the legendary "hellish week," Eric became an officer of the airborne troops.
He served in Afghanistan, Bosnia, Kosovo and Macedonia, together with other representatives of the NATO forces, in particular the (British Special Air Service) UK Special Air Service. He received a master's degree in economics. After his discharge from the army he worked in the telecommunications industry, engaged in recruiting and then began his career as a personal coach and psychotherapist.
Today, Eric is the most popular coach and consultant on personal performance in Norway. His clients include executives of large companies and Olympic champions, and do not dream about those heights they have achieved largely thanks to the work with Larssenom.
Therefore, we can safely say: the author knows what writes, and he can be trusted.
Larssen method
Erik Bertrand Larssen teaches people to think differently - comprehending what he calls emotional contrasts. He explains how a little each day to change your life, to build successful career and become happy.
The main idea of this method lies in the fact that even subtle shifts, becomes a habit, can lead to significant changes in life. And to achieve this a lot easier than it seems.
The structure of the book pleases no less than its content. For example, when Larssen writes about the order, it begins with an explanation of why and how important it is to set goals. Then he explains what a good target and, in the end, how to define it for yourself.
We must warn you that the topic for the discerning personal growth revelations will not be enough. But the opportunities to see the old truths in a new light rife. But that will have an excess and novices and pros, it's motivation and inspiration. You will receive a new impetus and will find new targets.
Finally, I realized that is the visualization and how to use it for achieve their goals. I was pleased that there was nothing to do with self-suggestion is not here. Just the brain gets a clear picture of which he must bring to life and begins to look for all sorts of ways, tools and resources.
Also, I am very skeptical about psychoanalysis. No, I do not believe that the past has no effect on our present and future. I just do not believe that to solve the previous problems it is necessary to delve into childhood trauma and deal with "their crying baby." So I was very happy recognition of the author.
Erik Bertrand LarssenMany people ask who I am - a kind of psychologist, mozgoprav? I usually reply that I use certain psychological methods, but rarely plunge into the past. I start with the current situation and work towards the future. I do not think you should be sure to dig up the past. I'm more interested in where people are today and where he sees himself in the future.
If your attitude towards life, development, Self-transcendence, and success seems to the author, you are sure to find for themselves a lot of new practices and tips.
In conclusion I would say that for me it remained a mystery title of the book, as there is nothing ruthless I have not found it. But the subtitle - "Push the limits of their capabilities," - has fully justified itself: I saw that I could put a bold and lofty goals, because I can actually reach them. And this was not a result of the pumping of suggestive emotions, and in the process of familiarization with the material, based on research and practical experience of people of different classes and characters.
So, even if you think that live on high and set yourself important goals, I propose: Challenge yourself, read a book by Eric Bertrand Larssen "Without self-pity. Push the limits of their capabilities... "
