What is the one thing that all successful people do? They focus on solutions — not problems — when confronted with a challenge, says Dr. Jason Selk. In his forthcoming book RELENTLESS SOLUTION FOCUS (McGraw Hill; January 2021), Dr. Selk -- who has helped athletes win World Series and business leaders increase productivity exponentially -- reveals his proven three-step process for developing a winning mindset. Would you like an advance copy for possible review or excerpt?
Twenty years ago, Dr. Selk set out to combine what he knew about cognitive neuroscience, brain chemistry, and human performance to create a training method to show people exactly how to develop the solution-focus that characterizes all top performers. Since then, he has taught his method to countless businesspeople and athletes who have used it as a springboard to their own success.
In his book, Dr. Selk addresses such topics as:
• How he combined what he knows about cognitive neuroscience, brain chemistry, and human performance to create his three-step method
• Why people are hardwired for “problem-centric thought” and how to overcome this
• Why it’s a mistake to focus on problems if you really want to get past them
• Why the key to achieving relentless solution focus lies in what you do in the first 60 seconds after having a negative thought
• The tools you need to retrain your brain
Mentally tough people actually choose the thoughts that cause them to take actions that lead to positive outcomes, although this is contrary to the way humans are hardwired. “Over millennia, our very survival relied on our ability to be alert to potential dangers,” says Dr. Selk. That is, we are pre-disposed to look for problems – what he calls “Problem-Centric Thought.” This negativity bias significantly limits our potential and increases stress, pressure, and underperformance.
By developing a Relentless Solution Focus (RSF) – which he and Ellen Reed have taught to tens of thousands of clients – people will not only be prepared for adversity, but will be able to thrive in it. This mind-training regimen makes it possible to reframe every problem into an opportunity for positive, productive action.
