the confidence gap
Dr Russ Harris is a world expert on ACT, a new mindfulness-based approach to psychological change that is rapidly sweeping this country. In the last four years, Russ has trained over 8000 coaches, counsellors and psychologists in this model, which enables people to reduce stress, overcome fear and find fulfilment. He has written four books, including the hugely successful self-help title The Happiness Trap (2007), now published in 20 countries and 15 languages. A popular speaker, Russ runs ACT training all over Australia and internationally, and this year he is launching ACT workshops for the general public.
First, a gazillion truckloads of gratitude to my wife, Carmel, for all her love and support; for being my muse; for helping me develop my ideas; for tolerating my love affair with the computer; for looking after our family while I was pounding away at the keyboard; and for encouraging me to keep writing when I was totally convinced it was all just a load of crap.
Also, as usual, a Mount Everest-sized heap of thanks to Steve Hayes, the originator of ACT. And that gratitude also extends to Kelly Wilson and Kirk Strosahl both huge sources of inspiration for me. Plus a very special thanks to Frank Gardner, whose work on ACT in the realm of peak performance has had a strong influence on my practice. Also to Todd Kashdan, for kindly allowing me to adapt his values worksheet. And a general round of thanks to the larger ACT community worldwide, which is always very supportive; indeed, many ideas within these pages have arisen from discussions on the worldwide ACT Listserv mailing list.
Next Id like to give a biiiiiiiiiiiiiiigggggggg THANK YOU! to my agent, Sammie Justesen, for all her good work. Plus Id like to unload several large shipments of thanks upon the entire team at Penguin especially Ingrid Ohlsson and Jocelyn Hungerford for all the hard work, care and attention they have invested in this book.
And finally I want to thank Max that one special person on this planet who calls me Daddy simply for bringing so much love, joy and wonder into my life.
Russ is now running Happiness Trap workshops for happiness, confidence and vitality, in capital cities throughout Australia. Why not come along and amaze yourself at what you are capable of?
ACT is a revolutionary new psychological approach for health, wellbeing and fulfilment. And if you have enjoyed reading The Confidence Gap, or The Happiness Trap, then you will find these ACT-based workshops transformational. (The difference between the book and the workshop is like the difference between a documentary about Africa and an actual visit to Africa.)
Happiness Trap workshops are for everyone, from CEOs to sales staff, from astronauts to homemakers. Whether youre lacking confidence, facing illness, coping with loss, working in a high-stress job, suffering from shyness, struggling with low self-esteem, trying to lose weight or quit smoking, preparing for the biggest challenge of your life, or just wanting to be happier, healthier, and more fulfilled in the space of just two days, you will learn scientifically proven techniques to:
- Reduce stress and worry
- Rise above fear, doubt and insecurity
- Handle painful thoughts and feelings far more effectively
- Break self-defeating habits
- Develop genuine confidence
- Improve performance and find fulfilment in your work
- Build more satisfying relationships and, above all,
- Create a rich, full and meaningful life.
