Summary of Marshall Goldsmith & Mark Reiter's The Earned Life
Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book.
Sample Book Insights:
#1 The Western paradigm is all about striving for something better in the future and believing that two things will result: we will remain essentially the same person we have been, only better, and against all the evidence, this time it will last.
#2 The Every Breath Paradigm can be difficult for clients to accept, as it takes away the validation of past successes and the future-facing buzz of pursuing an ambitious goal. But it is crucial to their success, as it helps them see the futility of belaboring the past and the importance of focusing on the present moment.
#3 Impermanence is easy to accept if you're in the business of helping people change. When you accept that everything that flourishes also decays and disappears, you're accepting a viewpoint that doesn't apply only to worldly achievements and status. It applies powerfully to your personal development as well.
#4 The connection between the present and the past is as immediate and direct as flipping a switch to fill a dark room with light. We must accept that everything of value that we have earned is impermanent, and we must constantly re-earn it.
