The Other 90%: Unlock Your Vast Untapped Potential

Description

No matter how long we work, how little we sleep, or how hard we push, few of us are achieving the life we truly desire and imagine for ourselves. We feel mentally limited, blocked from greater possibilities, bombarded by stress, and weakened by uncertainty. In this course, Robert K. Cooper will prove that most of our limits are self-imposed and that we each hold the power to liberate the vast, hidden potential inside us. Using his book, The Other 90%: How to Unlock Your Vast Untapped Potential for Leadership and Life, as a guide, Cooper will show how, by unearthing the truest, most talented self at your core, you can discover a wealth of opportunities above and beyond what you ever imagined in your life and work. Cooper provides specific, practical ways to use the latest research in neuroscience, performance psychology, and work physiology to excel in a pressure-filled world. This course will show you how to: increase your energy at work and at play; activate the brain’s “alertness switches” to combat pressure and stress; engage not only the brain in your head, but also the ones in your heart and gut; and motivate exceptional ingenuity and performance in yourself and in those around you. Many of the choices that can dramatically change your life are simple and practical — you just have to know what they are and how to apply them in day-to-day living.

The Other 90%: How to Unlock Your Vast Untapped Potential for Leadership and Life
For centuries, it has been assumed that there are vast limits to human capacity. Now, although a host of scientific discoveries prove this wrong, a mindset of limits persists, blocking us from our greatest possibilities and leaving us feeling bombarded by stress, change, and uncertainty. No matter how hard we work, no matter how much we give, we’re still not getting what we hoped for. There is another way.Additional Materials
