Introduction: Yellow-eyed cats -- Nothing is what you think it is -- Reasons are bullshit -- Getting unstuck -- Finding assistance -- Doing is everything -- Watch your language -- Group habits -- Self-image by design -- The big picture -- Make achievement your habit.
The co-founder of the Stanford d.School introduces the power of design thinking to help you achieve goals you never thought possible. Achievement can be learned. It's a muscle, and once you learn how to flex it, you'll be able to meet life's challenges and fulfill your goals, Bernard Roth, Academic Director at the Stanford d.school contends. In The Achievement Habit, Roth applies the remarkable insights that stem from design thinking-previously used to solve large scale projects-to help us realize the power for positive change we all have within us.
