Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

Rise Above

Everyone faces a moment when the ground gives way - a diagnosis, a failure, a loss, a door that slams shut. What separates the people who rebuild from the people who stay stuck is not luck, and it is not the absence of pain. It is what they do with their attention once the hardship arrives.

Rise Above draws on the science of optimistic thinking and the true stories of twenty-five people who refused to be defined by their worst circumstances - Thomas Edison, Helen Keller, Nelson Mandela, Oprah Winfrey, Stephen Hawking, Malala Yousafzai, Viktor Frankl, Harriet Tubman, and others who turned failure, illness, imprisonment, and grief into the raw material of a life that kept moving forward.

This is not a book of empty affirmations or forced positivity. It is a grounded, evidence-based guide to building an explanatory style that can be learned - one setback, one habit, one chapter at a time - along with a practical framework for getting through whatever you're facing right now.

You do not have to read it start to finish. Find the chapter that speaks to your struggle, and begin there.
