The Awkward Principle: Harness the Power to Create Success (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781492270058)

Belonging - being seen, being known, and fitting in with other people just by being ourselves - is one of the best feelings in the world. Belonging at work, at school, and with family and friends is so important that we try to carefully design and manage all interactions with other human beings. And yet, the most magnetic and creative people are the ones who thrive during situations that would be uncomfortable for everybody else. Why is it that while everyone is desperately trying not to be caught in "off moments," successful people embrace them? People want total control over their lives, but human interactions are unpredictable and spontaneous. This book teaches the principles of authentic connection. Putting yourself out there and being genuine takes guts. The counterintuitive Awkward Principle shows how to make mistakes and social gaffes with grace. By taking risks and exploring how to go for things we really want, we will discover that fear no longer holds us back from being ourselves. People are more likely to trust those who are their true charismatic selves around others. By using the Awkward Principle, you will begin to experience amazing encounters everywhere you go.
