Do you sometimes behave irrationally or impulsively? Do you face some situations with fear & trepidation? Do feelings of self-doubt consume everyday activities? Leading Consultant Psychiatrist, Prof Steve Peters, knows more than anyone how impulsive behaviour or nagging self-doubt can impact negatively on our professional & personal lives. In this, his first book, Steve shares his phenomenally successful mind management programme that has been used to help elite athletes & senior managers alike to conquer their fears & operate with greater control, focus & confidence. Seemingly complex concepts are made simple with the use of memorable analogies -- such as the 'chimp', that seemingly irrational & impulsive being that inhabits our minds -- & real-life case studies. Never before will you have had such a deep & clear understanding of your own behaviour & natural responses to certain people or situations. This knowledge, combined with simple techniques that can be easily incorporated into daily life, will help you to control your emotional impulses & reach your full potential, leading to success at work & a happier, harmonious home life. 8 CDs
