THE ADVENTURE OF A LIFETIME.

To Change the Way You See Yourself through Asset-Based Thinking (ABT) is both a simple and profound experience. It takes courage and a sense of adventure.

ABT favors inspiration and aspiration over desperation. It propels your momentum, and dramatically increases your chances of being successful. Its infectious.

Let Asset-Based Thinking show you how to unleash your power, your influence, and your impact. That is what this book is all about.

THE ABT MIND-SET - DONT LEAVE HOME WITHOUT IT!

What ABT is:

Asset-Based Thinking is a way of viewing reality. Asset-Based Thinkers embrace the positive side of life and free themselves of the deficit-based negative side (DBT). ABT reveals how even the slightest shifts in your thinking can lead to seismic differences. This new mind-set was brought to life in the first bestseller of this series, Change the Way You See Everything.

How ABT works:

ABT is looking at yourself and the world through the eyes of whats working and your present strengths and potentials. With ABT you block out distractions and create a focal point of concentration and high mental energy centered on assets. ABT keeps you alert and inspired until you have maximized all there is to gain.

ASSET-BASED THINKERS S.O.S.

S.O.S. is recognized as the universal signal for help. But in ABT terms it is an acronym that helps you focus on where to look for assets.

Self S

Reminds you to look within yourself for your talents and strengths that are most useful in any circumstance.

Others O

Refers to your focus on the strengths and talents of others, and the positive qualities in your relationships (such as trust, respect, collaboration).

Situations S

Stands for the assets inherent in any situation. Good experiences naturally provide assets such as stimulation, opportunity, and synergy. But even unwelcome situations contain important assets such as vital new perspectives and life lessons.

Adventure is not outside man; it is within.

DAVID GRAYSON

This is the true joy in life, the being used for a purpose you consider a mighty one,the being a force of nature, rather than a feverish, selfish clod of ailments and grievances complaining that the world will not devote itself to making you happy.

GEORGE BERNHARD SHAW

CALL OURSELF TO ACTION

FROM REACTIVE TO PROACTIVE

Calling yourself to action means being proactive. In the face of the relentless barrage of daily demands, being proactive is not that easy. In fact, if you are like most people you operate in a reactive mode - consumed by deadlines at work, family obligations, household chores, and unexpected mishaps. You wake up feeling overwhelmed by what is urgent. You are busier than ever, but just barely able to keep up. Days, months, years fly by and you are left wondering, where did the time go?, what have I accomplished?, whose tune am I marching to?

With Asset-Based Thinking, life doesnt have to be a 24-7 treadmill. When you change the way you see yourself, you treat your personal priorities with the same level of importance as you do external demands. You set your sights on what you have to contribute, on what you want to make happen, on how you want to lead and inspire others.

Asset-Based Thinking helps you navigate through the ups and downs by letting your purpose and passions guide the way. Your life becomes an adventure of your own making. You put yourself in the drivers seat. You decide the destinations. You use surprise, serendipity, and even setbacks to make the journey more interesting and more worthwhile. You are more confident in who you are, where you are going, and how to get there. That is what Change the Way You See Yourself is all about.

UNLEASH YOUR POWER: ITS THE FOUNDATION

The first step to being proactive, and putting yourself in the drivers seat, is to tap into your deepest reservoirs of personal power. Personal power comes from leveraging the assets that make you, you. Like everyone, you have a unique combination of talents that inspire others and make you effective under almost any circumstance. One secret to unleashing personal power is to know which of your strengths and capabilities have made lasting, positive impressions and impacts.

In ABT terms, the unique set of assets that makes you stand out is your Signature Presence. When you step into your Signature Presence, you are the most authentic, compelling person you can be. You embody your beliefs. You allow your passion to shine through everything you say and do. Your Signature Presence powers your ability to lead others and to get exponentially better results. No matter what challenges come your way, your Signature Presence power will ensure you meet them.
