Historical to Now

Loved the connection of relevant topics , ideas , and emerging thoughts to the now and reasons for urgency to today’s situations , for tomorrows successes

Heavy on information but a little light on advice.

This book is a great overview of positive psychology and related fields, especially as they relate to work. My only critique is that it feels like you’re learning about the concepts, rather than learning how to apply them to your life. However there is some good advice sprinkled throughout. Overall, it’s a book worth reading for anyone who wants to thrive at work.

A Major Contribution: We are in such flux and increasing complexity, that we all need a paradigm shift?

Looking forward optimistically with self confidence that no matter what changes come, we will have the learnable beliefs and skills to be not only resilient but thrive also.

The models presented are a good foundation for evolving even more effective and customizable applications.

People have to stop using beliefs and scripts they learned even ten years ago, We are living in a time of information warfare (psyops) and undue influence. The law is 100 years (at least) out of date and we need to live as embodied minds with internal locus of control for values and decision-making.

Buy this book. It will help us navigate the “white waters” of change!
