If you feel stuck, stymied, or sedated, you're not alone. Many accomplished people feel a sense of stagnation, like nothing ever really changes. But in Inflection Points: How to Work and Live with Purpose, celebrated performance coach and speaker Matt Spielman delivers an inspiring and practical "existential navigational tool" designed to help readers identify what really matters to them and how to make it a reality.

The author introduces you to a life transformation system called the "Game Plan System" (GPS, for short). It's a navigational tool that helps you choose an objective and a roadmap to getting there. The GPS is also highly practical, starting with light and straightforward questions: What do you like to do? How do you want to spend your time? What results would you like to see? What impact do you want to have? Questions intended to find where your energy resides.

From there, you'll discover the value of reorienting your perspective from an achievement-based outlook to one influenced by positive psychology. You'll begin to look at your life through the lens of personal happiness and well-being, the ultimate priorities that truly drive effective decision making. You'll also consider the "what," "why," and "how" of planning for personal fulfilment so you can create a roadmap that leads you where you want to go.

In the book, the author walks you through how to celebrate your wins, handle setbacks, achieve your goals (and create new ones) as you move through your plan. Inflection Points is the perfect companion for anyone who's come to realize there's more to life than what they're doing right now. Complete with downloadable, supplementary material and templates, the book belongs in the libraries of anyone who wants to make the most of every day.
