Imagine a world where you’d easily answer 90%...or more!
Imagine feeling more in control of your life and crushing every goal that you set.
What if you could feel more empowered at work and excited to begin each new day?
What if your relationships were thriving and you felt connected, cared for and valued?
This doesn’t have to be an imaginary what-if, it can be your definite reality.
If you find yourself feeling increasing levels of anxiety and overwhelm, yet you want to feel more in control of your health, your money, and your relationships, then this book on locus of control is perfect for you!
In 1954, Dr. Julian Rotter coined the term locus of control. It’s the degree to which you believe you’re in control of the decisions, actions, and outcomes in your life.
Those with an external locus believe outside forces and other people determine their destiny. They feel little control in their lives and tend to have more negative health, financial and relationship outcomes.
Those with an internal locus of control believe they are in charge of their actions, decisions, setbacks and successes. They take personal responsibility and tend to be healthier, wealthier, and thriving in personal and professional relationships.
So, if you’re curious if you are an internal or an external and want to build a stronger internal locus of control, let this book be your guide.
In working with students, leaders and entrepreneurs, Suzy Siegle noticed patterns in how people thought, acted and reacted, and how those patterns determined the successes or failures that they saw. She suggests that, in reality, we ALL have an internal locus of control and are in charge of the outcomes we see in our lives. It’s just that we may not yet understand how our locus is working, and how to make it work for us!
Siegle walks through the science behind how our mind learns, adapts and relearns and why it’s so important we work with the most powerful part of our mind if we want to see real lasting change. By understanding the principles in this book and using Siegle’s THRIVE framework, you can develop what she calls a strong LOCUS Mindset, or an internal locus of control approach to your life.
Here’s what people are saying:
"Locus is a book that really changes your perspective on how much control you have over your own life. It unveils how powerful our minds really are - something that’s not always obvious in your day to day. Suzy shows you how to harness that power to bring about positive changes and to be healthier and happier. It’s such a hopeful book and full of relatable examples and techniques to try - highly recommended." - Sarah Busby, commissioning editor and development editor
“I have been transformed by having a LOCUS Mindset. Having built my life around the illusion that being loved, connected, and safe was dependent on others...I wake up each morning looking for ways to impact the world and generate ore revenue to multiply that impact.” -J.R., Higher Education Leader
“The first time we met, I was confined that the furthers I could take my career was to be an employee for another company. That was a red flag that my concerns were about safety and security. Now, I’m on my way to an extremely successful business and have changed my mindset and built new belief systems." -N. Harris, Business Owner and Entrepreneur
