Outsmart the Learning Curve: How Ordinary People Can Achieve Extraordinary Success
How did a thirty-six-year-old marketing manager with no math or science background transform herself into an aerospace engineer? What strategies enabled a failed kindergarten teacher to later thrive as a consultant for nearly every top MBA program in the world? What surprising techniques did a paralyzed twenty-five-year-old use to beat the odds and make a miraculous recovery? And are there threads of wisdom that can be drawn from each of their stories that make a unifying case for how to succeed? Amazingly, yes!
Many “success” books describe how world-class people became world-class. Outsmart the Learning Curve explores the journeys of seven ordinary people who made extraordinary transformations or overcame significant obstacles. Their stories are interwoven with the science-backed strategies they used to overcome adversity.
Outsmart the Learning Curve provides accessible, achievable, and practical solutions for the rest of us (non-world-class people). It will inspire you to improve your life, further your success, or perhaps make the dramatic transformation you’ve been thinking about. More importantly, it provides tools and techniques to make it happen.
