    About this ebook

    Switch: How to Change Things When Change is Hard by Dan Heath & Chip Heath | Book Summary | Abbey Beathan

    (Disclaimer: This is NOT the original book.)

    Why is change so hard? And how can we finally face it in order to grow stronger? After decades of research, the Heaths finally have the answer.

    The fear of change is built into our brains. Many psychologists, through extensive research, have discovered that our brain is divided into two systems, a rational and an emotional one. The emotional is fast and makes decisions through intuition while the rational is slow and takes its time to make an accurate choice. The incongruence between these two systems makes change so hard but if you are able to overcome it, then nothing will stop you.

    (Note: This summary is wholly written and published by Abbey Beathan. It is not affiliated with the original author in any way)

    "Until you can ladder your way down from a change idea to a specific behavior, you're not ready to lead a switch." – Chip Heath

    Switch has a story-driven narrative with the objective of showing you how regular people were able to face change and obtained extraordinary results. Do not blindly try to make changes. Follow a guide based on years of research about psychology, sociology and related fields in order to obtain the ideal results. Evidently, to make the best of change, you must know it and know yourself very well.

    It's time for you to face the music and start pondering about a much-needed change.

    P.S. Switch is an outstanding book made to help you understand and accept change.

      I was dubious, but it was free. Now, I wish every book like Switch came with such a useful summary to use as a reference. The full book gives you more detail, more examples, but this gives you the essential core and I really appreciate it! Thanks, Chip and Dan!
    • 5/5
      One of the best books I've ever read, and truly life changing. Applying the concepts to myself, I found my "switch" for a healthier lifestyle.
    • 5/5
      This is an excellent book on how to enact change and the mechanics behind that. I strongly recommend this book to anyone who wants to change something in their personal life or within their working environment.
