About this book
First Serve Yourself offers practical and simple ways, backed by science and real-world examples, to help leaders amplify their influence and impact in any area of their lives.
Through his work, author Vik Kapoor has learned that young leaders around the world, though capable, passionate, and wanting to serve others, are not always equipped with the tools they need to grow into the extraordinary leaders he knows they can become.
First Serve Yourself demystifies coaching. It provides practical tools, cutting-edge research, and ways you can get started today. The menu of options presented here can help you:
- bounce back from setbacks,
- overcome fear and insecurity,
- flip your mindset,
- get grounded,
- motivate yourself,
- set better goals,
- play to your strengths, and
- visualize your ideal future and create a plan to get there.
When you're counting on YOU for that next right answer and the pressure is on, that's when coaching yourself is so important.
By weaving in success stories of young leaders, this book shows you how it is possible to win on your own terms. By looking inside yourself, as Kapoor has done, you can find the courage and clarity to go farther in life than you ever thought possible.
