A pioneering psychologist reveals how three emotions can provide the surest, quickest route to success in any realm.

These feelings – gratitude, compassion and pride – are easier to generate than the willpower and self-denial that underpin traditional approaches to grit.

God put His creativity on display in the story of creation. In the natural world, things were really bad, but God had an idea, God constructed what He Saw in His mind, and it turned out to be very beautiful.

From that point on, it was man’s business to create and recreate.

The essential message in this book is that we can gain mastery over life by employing the same process by which God solved the chaotic problem in the beginning of creation.

You can move from failure to success and from lack to abundance by receiving ideas and by turning those ideas into reality. I hope that this book will be used by God to turn you into a sign and a wonder to your world.
