You Are What You Believe: Simple Steps to Transform Your Life

by Hyrum W. Smith, Ken Blanchard (Foreword by)

Overview

Change Your Beliefs, Change Your Life

We all have times in our lives when the results of our behavior don’t seem to be meeting our needs. In this new book, Hyrum Smith does two things that are invaluable to people who wish to make their lives less painful. First, he reveals, through a clear and simple model, how we get to the point where our behaviors cause these kinds of problems. Then, with a simplicity that is impressive in itself, he describes the steps we must take to identify and rectify the beliefs leading to our painful behavior. The result is a powerful process for transforming your habits and relationships and achieving lasting personal and career success.
