Aprašymas

'One of the great psychologists of our time and Ordinary Magic is a life-changing book' Carol Dweck, author of the international bestseller, Mindset

'An eye-opening look at how we have more power to improve our lives than we realize' Adam Grant, bestselling author of Think Again

Discover the simple psychological shifts that intercept cycles of doubt, build trust and foster a sense of belonging.

The emotional questions we face can define our lives. If you're expecting an interaction to go wrong, that expectation can make it so. That's spiraling down.

But as esteemed Stanford psychologist Greg Walton shows, when we see these questions clearly, we can answer them well. Known to social psychologists as 'wise interventions', these shifts in perspective can help us chart new trajectories for our lives. They help us spiral up.

This is ordinary magic: the ordinary experiences that help us set aside the ordinary worries of life to unleash extraordinary change.

Through vivid storytelling and insightful analysis of fascinating research, Dr. Walton pulls back the curtain to reveal the magic at work across our lives: with our children, in our relationships, in school and in our policy.

It is easy to think that problems are out of our control. But, in fact, we have vast opportunities to steer our own lives. Ordinary Magic puts the tools for change in your hands.
