Description

How to handle everything (and everyone) around you when life goes off the rails, from the international bestselling author of Surrounded by Idiots. Not everything goes the way we want it to — the world and people around us can spin out of control. This practical guide helps you turn adversity into success using the behavioural model made famous in Surrounded by Idiots. Start by accepting life as it is and recognising that you can't control everything. Instead, focus on how to respond and find an approach that works for you. Surrounded by Setbacks will help you identify the method that fits your personality and empower you to turn setbacks into success.
