More Description
This book is for people from all walks of life who want significant changes. Dr. Chandon teaches a form of meditation that he developed called, Imaginative Meditation. He teaches you to use your imagination powerfully to create big changes in your life. This is the most advanced of Dr. Chandon''s books that are for people from all walks of life.
This is a roadmap for meaningful personal change. You won''t find inspirational stories and quotes about making important changes. You''ll find hundreds of short meditations with a few ideas for you to consider in your meditation. Each day, you''ll read a few paragraphs and then do a 15-minute meditation. You''ll learn to use your imagination in new and powerful ways. The investment of time is minimal, especially when compared with the paradigm-shifting results that you''ll get with a daily meditation.
Schools steep us in analytical problem solving, but teach us virtually nothing about using our imaginative, creative and intuitive capabilities of our brains. Unfortunately, many of the most significant intrapersonal problems that we face are unsolvable using only our analytical skills. For example, many people try to improve their confidence using their analytical skills. It simply doesn''t work. To make big changes, especially intrapersonal ones, we use our imagination powerfully. Dr. Chandon teaches you to use your "Artist-Mind" powerfully. He teaches you to activate your Artist-Mind and create powerful levers of change.
All meditation methods teach the same core skill, which is to set our mind''s focus on something (or nothing) and hold our focus for a significant time. How each method teaches that core skill varies widely. Most meditation methods try to have you remove most, if not all, thoughts from your mind. Dr. Chandon''s method is the opposite. He wants you to fill your mind with the right kinds of thoughts.
This book provides adults with powerful tools to create lives that are deeply meaningful and effective. It teaches you to transform the way you think, feel and take decisive action. The focus is on making big changes in response to significant challenges that adults typically face throughout their lives. You can think of "big changes" as making significant improvements in the quality and effectiveness of your life. You can think of "transformations" as the result of making some big changes.
What''s the need for big changes and transformations? Wouldn''t small changes be equally as effective? Small changes would be perfectly suitable except that modern life presents us with an unending series of major challenges that are driven primarily by technology and the ongoing digital revolution. Technology keeps increasing the speed of change. That puts increasing pressure on people to transform their mental and physical approach to making significant improvements in the ways that they live and work.
The technologies that we have available today are powerful tools that we can use, but we have to be able to use them skillfully. The most powerful technologies that are unusable because of a lack of human skillfulness have no practical value. We have to retool our minds and the ways that we learn, solve problems, take care of our health and transform ourselves so that we have the life and meaningful work that we want.
In addition to working with world-class athletes, Dr. Chandon has also worked worked with people from many different walks of life over the years. His methods consistently result in big changes and personal transformations. The reason why his methods work with all walks of life is that optimal performance is optimal performance. Regardless of the tasks that we do, we bring the same mind and body systems to those tasks. We have to work with our mind and body systems in harmony with how they were designed to work. That''s how powerful and rapid big changes regularly happen.
