Feeling Stuck? Engineer a Breakthrough: How to achieve a quantum leap in effectiveness and inner peace

Are you confident that, right now, you are functioning at the highest level possible for you? Have you achieved all that you are capable of?Odds are you are painfully aware that, successful as you are, you could have done more, much more. Something is keeping you stuck and you would love to shuck those constraints.It is possible to burst through your barriers and dramatically increase your level of performance and your rate of accomplishment. You don’t have to climb the ladder of success step by step. You can skip several levels at a time and do this repeatedly.

‘Trying harder’ or seeking to be ‘more efficient’ cannot do this. Nor will ‘managing your time better’ or ‘working smarter’. Dr. Rao believes that in fact, greater effort actually compounds the problem and gets you spinning your wheels fruitlessly. The only way to achieve such a quantum leap is to adopt an unconventional and different worldview. You need to shift your perspective radically and view both your business and your life in new and unusual ways.

According to Dr. Rao, the payoff is immense. You actually get more done while working less. There is less stress in your life and more joy. There is a sense of effortlessness and a feeling of exhilaration. You truly enjoy each day while accomplishing more than you ever dreamed possible.
