Big Potential
How Transforming the Pursuit of Success Raises Our Achievement, Happiness and Well-being
Right now with hyper-competition at work and in our schools, it can feel like success is zero sum. The extreme pressure to achieve and stand out means people are working harder than ever, well-being is declining, and depression rates are skyrocketing.
Shawn’s newest book BIG POTENTIAL looks at how if we pursue happiness and success individually, there’s a cap on what we can achieve. Only by pursuing happiness and success together with others can we see our Big Potential.
“One of the world’s leading experts on human potential.”
