Like the North Star, pointing you in the right direction, Lodestar by Jim McCann and George S. Everly, Jr. PhD, FAPA is your essential guide to learning the key components of success and applying them to your life.
A ONE-STOP SHOP FOR THE BEST OF SELF-HELP
The innate drive to “do better” and to “be better” seems to be hard-wired in most individuals. In fact, the $10 billion self-help industry would seem a compelling testament to that conclusion. It has produced libraries of priceless insight from gurus and everyday folks, celebrities and prodigies, millionaires and poets. There’s plenty of advice out there to get you almost anywhere you want to go—and more than enough to get lost in. So, where do you begin?
That’s where Jim McCann and George S. Everly, Jr., PhD, FAPA come in. Together, the 1-800-FLOWERS.com founder and the esteemed psychologist have combined the practical with the scientific to explore the most celebrated self-help books and unveil the top reoccurring themes: why they matter, and how they are applied, in one digestible volume. No book like this has ever been written!
The core tenets of building a better life for yourself are covered here through the best thinking of the last hundred years of self-improvement, plus exclusive interviews with people whose success stories bring it all to life.
The endless quest for growth is universal to human nature. You can overcome hardship to thrive and flourish if only you find the right way forward. Lodestar is your shortcut to that elusive path.
