Do you feel like there must be something more? This is your guide to getting unstuck, breaking free of your comfortable cocoon, and discovering what you are meant to be.

Whether you need a complete overhaul or just a jumpstart, you'll find the advice you need to start making it happen.

More than just a story, this book shifts your perspective to help you realistically plan a transition from the ordinary present to the extraordinary future; emotional support coupled with practical guidance helps you find your path, identify your destination, and begin your journey.

  • Rediscover the truth about yourself and who you really want to be
  • Follow a clear formula for moving forward with authenticity

The fact that you've succeeded doesn't mean that you can never change; your dedication, commitment, and skills got you this far—imagine what they could do with a healthy dose of passion!

Application Guide

Applying the Traction Formula and the Six-Phase Model to Your Life

You, the Traction Formula, and the Six-Phase Model

In our work with people from all walks of life, two critical truths have become clear to us. First, people tend to minimize the value of healthy self-leadership practices until they reach a point of fatigue or frustration. At this point, they realize that how they have done their life in the past won't get them to the life they desire. Second, it usually takes a discomforting STOP sign (some type of internal or external breakdown) to awaken them to the fact that how they are doing their life needs to change.
Almost every maturing person we know reaches a moment when he or she needs to get UNSTUCK by rethinking, or rediscovering—who they are at their core—what is it that will enable them to sustain making their contribution over the long run—and, how to integrate daily practices of renewal that keep them excited about life and work. If they have lost themselves in their work over the years, there may be a desire to rediscover who they are and why they do what they do. If they have been in a job contrary to how they are wired up, that incongruence needs to be corrected, even if it means a career change. If their job has changed significantly over time, but they have not, adjustments will need to be made.
Our desire for this Application Guide is to help you:
  1. Identify and develop yourself wherever you are in the Six-Phase Model
  2. Understand how to apply the Traction Formula to your current life circumstances
  3. Guide you to establish regenerative practices that will enable you to make a sustained contribution to the world around you and experience lasting fulfillment in life.
This Field Guide is not meant to be exhaustive, but it will help you take the next step in creating a life of ongoing renewal. We hope you will consider attending one of the UNSTUCK Retreats we host around the county. Or maybe you will contact the authors and pursue a Personal Leadership Summit. These experiences can help you take additional steps in living renewed each day. For now, let's learn how to apply the Traction Formula to your life …TODAY!

The Traction Formula

Introspection: The examination or observation of one's own mental and emotional processes

Deliberately inspecting your life has power. Introspection examines what's going on in and around you. You allow curiosity to become your friend. You step back and work through your sacred questions. You pay attention to how you feel and what you think about things. In essence, you...
