Wall Street JournalBestseller

Have you ever wondered why we spend so much time and energy thinking about the big challenges in our lives when all the evidence proves its actually the little things that change everything? Thats right Absolutely everything.

New York Times bestselling author Andy Andrews is known for his strong storytelling and unequaled perspective on principles that empower the human mind and spirit. The Little Things embodies his own approach to life and work, detailing for the first time some of the exclusive material that he uses to teach and coach some of the most successful corporations, teams, and individuals around the world. In his unique humorous style, Andy shows how people succeed by actually going against the modern adage, dont sweat the small stuff. By contrast, Andy proves that it is in concentrating on the smaller things that we add value and margin.

In a world where so many feel powerless, wouldnt it be great to feel in control? Then know this. Perspective can be more important than basic answers.

I am more passionate than ever about my search to notice that one thing . . . that one tiny thing that, when understood and harnessed, allows us to create a life of extraordinary purpose and powerful results. Its less about drive and will power than it is about understanding certain principles and why they work . . . every time.

Andrews provides common-sense perspective and a game plan for meeting various challenges, such as:

  • Managing life in a society that seems to be constantly offended by something or someone
  • Creating change that is permanent and not short term
  • Dramatically increasing results by harnessing the fraction of margin between second place and first
  • Understanding our spiritual connection with God and how that affects planning and outcome
  • Identifying the very moment when asking the question why? multiplies the success of an endeavor
  • Recognizing the smallest details that ensure the greatest success

I am about to take a belief you may have held for yearsa common assumption about what is required to reach the top of your chosen profession or to live a successful lifeand turn it upside down.

SOON YOU WILL COME TO UNDERSTAND HOW AND why a simple adjustment in perspective can produce personal and career results far beyond what most people ever imagine.

Interested?

First, allow me to introduce myself. My name is Andy Andrews. I am a Noticer.

It is entirely possible that I am the first professional Noticer youve ever met. Ill admit its an unconventional label, but no other word so perfectly describes what I do. One person may have an amazing voice or is athletically gifted. Another might have a talent for mathematics, fashion, or teaching. Me? I notice things. Or, more to the point, I notice things other people miss.

If you and I are just becoming acquainted, I can imagine your reaction. Seriously? You notice things? Come on! How do you even make a living?

I totally understand the question. It was one I asked myself more than once, and for a long time I wondered if I would make a living! After all, this Noticer thing was not a skill I developed. It was just something I had (was? am?). Anyway, there was a period in my life when I only noticed things that were funny. At least they were funny enough to enable me to make a living... as a comedian.

Its true. For a number of years I worked in Las Vegas, performed on college campuses, went on television talk shows, and toured with some of the biggest names in show business at the timeKenny Rogers, Cher, Garth Brooks, and others. And, get this: I was Joan Riverss opening act for two whole years!

It was the Noticer thing that allowed all that to happen. I saw the same daily events everyone else saw. I heard the same words and phrases everyone else heard. And those words and phrases were all used in the same way. But, for some reason, I saw, heard, and perceived something just a little bit different. For instance:

My mother used to tell me, Dont play with that stick.
Youll poke your eye out! And Id always think, you cant poke your eye out with a stick. You can poke it in.... To poke it out, youd have to run it up through your nose.

See what I mean?

Somewhere along the way I began to wonder if I could do more for an audience than simply make them laugh. The answer turned out to be yes. In fact, whatever I did to produce comedy from ordinary situations is the same ability I use today to discern subtle differences that can be harnessed by individuals, teams, and corporations to separate themselves dramatically from their industries averages.
