Are you tired of not living the life you truly want? Not feeling happy or fulfilled? Not living a life filled with purpose, passion and meaning? Are you interested in understanding WHY your life is the way it is? WHY, no matter what you have tried in the past, nothing really worked? WHY you couldn’t step out of your Comfort Zone? Most important- do you want to know HOW you can change that? Then this book for you! Creating Change will take you on a journey through your own conscious and sub-conscious mind, your unique kind of intelligence, your habits and limiting beliefs. You will become aware of some scientific facts about your brain, how it works and why it functions the way it does. You will learn certain methods and tools to make your brain work for you instead of against you by, among others, eliminate limiting beliefs and non-supportive habits, and how to re-program your programmed mind so you can reduce the level of stress, fear and self- judgment and by that enable yourself to find your true passion and purpose, enlarge and expand the level of (self) love and acceptance, health and joy. Creating Change offers an all-round step by step program that covers a wide range of crucial information which will support and help you create the reality you desire and deserve.

Did you know most of our patterns of behavior are set by the time we are six years old? No wonder it's so hard to change! Even when we're committed to making a change in life, it's always an uphill battle. But there is a secret to lasting change that God gave us long before modern neuroscience and self-help gurus were the norm. Rethink How You Think is for anyone who has been frustrated by an inability to change habits, overcome fears, or keep up new healthy patterns of living and thinking. Dr. David Stoop shows readers that the true way to lasting change is in the renewing of our minds, which we accomplish when we faithfully read God's Word and meditate on it daily. He clearly shows how to move from fear to love, from resentment to gratitude, from lust to purity, from loneliness to connection, from idolatry to contentment, and from mistrust to trust. Anyone eager to find change that lasts will welcome this practical and encouraging message.

The #1 New York Times bestseller. Over 20 million copies sold! Translated into 60+ languages! Tiny Changes, Remarkable Results No matter your goals, Atomic Habits offers a proven framework for improving--every day. James Clear, one of the world's leading experts on habit formation, reveals practical strategies that will teach you exactly how to form good habits, break bad ones, and master the tiny behaviors that lead to remarkable results. If you're having trouble changing your habits, the problem isn't you. The problem is your system. Bad habits repeat themselves again and again not because you don't want to change, but because you have the wrong system for change. You do not rise to the level of your goals. You fall to the level of your systems. Here, you'll get a proven system that can take you to new heights. Clear is known for his ability to distill complex topics into simple behaviors that can be easily applied to daily life and work. Here, he draws on the most proven ideas from biology, psychology, and neuroscience to create an easy-to-understand guide for making good habits inevitable and bad habits impossible. Along the way, readers will be inspired and entertained with true stories from Olympic gold medalists, award-winning artists, business leaders, life-saving physicians, and star comedians who have used the science of small habits to master their craft and vault to the top of their field. Learn how to: make time for new habits (even when life gets crazy); overcome a lack of motivation and willpower; design your environment to make success easier; get back on track when you fall off course; ...and much more. Atomic Habits will reshape the way you think about progress and success, and give you the tools and strategies you need to transform your habits--whether you are a team looking to win a championship, an organization hoping to redefine an industry, or simply an individual who wishes to quit smoking, lose weight, reduce stress, or achieve any other goal.
