Описание
Cofounder of the Stanford d.school Bernie Roth shows you how the power of design thinking can help you achieve goals you never thought possible.
Did you know that achievement can be learned? As Bernie Roth explains, achievement is a muscle. And once you learn how to flex it, you'll be able to meet life's challenges and reach your goals.
Based on a legendary course Roth has taught at Stanford University for several decades, The Achievement Habit employs the remarkable insights that stem from design thinking to help us realize the power we all have within to change our lives for the better. By ridding ourselves of issues that stand in the way of reaching our full potential, we gain the confidence finally to do things we've always wanted to do. Combining design thinking, problem-solving, creativity, communication skills, and life adjustments, readers will learn:
Why trying and doing are two different things Why using reasons (excuses), even legitimate ones, to explain one's behavior is self-defeating How to change your self-image into one of a doer and achiever How subtle language changes can resolve existential dilemmas and barriers to action How to build resiliency by reinforcing what you do rather than what you accomplish How to be open to learning from your own experience and from those around youOur behavior and relationships can be transformed-if we choose to, we can be mindful and control our intentions to create habits that make our lives better. And with this thoughtful book as your guide, you can.

Unfortunately, the author’s taken it upon himself to ‘decide’ for us what “love” means (that it’s the materialistic sort - understandable given he’s an engineer, ok) - and that “love” does NOT belong in marriage. Perhaps he’d be right if materialistic love didn’t belong in marriage, but just pontificates that LOVE itself is not beneficial/helpful/suitable in a marriage. Disappointing and needless thing for him as engineer to push.
I’ve listened through it about four times now. At first, I was peeved at how infrequently the phrase “Achievement Habit” is actually mentioned. However, in repeatedly listening I discovered that really the Achievement Habit comes down to just banishing excuses from your thoughts and developing a “bias towards action” paired with the ability to apply design thinking concepts in generating potential solutions to your problems.
The rest of the book is just focused on how to deal with some less obvious aspects of how to put the author’s advice into practice.
This was also my first introduction to the framework of design thinking, and I think that its presentation in this book is clear and practical for a beginner to apply.
