Whether things are going well, going badly or somewhere in the middle this practical self-coaching guide will help you to toughen up and flourish through life's inevitability. As the title Bounce Back ... Spring Forwards suggests this is about a lot more than coping with adversity, setbacks and failure although that is of course important. That's because as well as coping this is about learning how to approach challenge and discomfort in ways that mean less anxiety and more excitement; less doing nothing and more taking action; less holding back and more having a go; less feeling hopeless and more feeling resourceful; less wondering what's the point and more leading a life of purpose and meaning. Ultimately this guide provokes you to think, feel and do differently in order to make the most of your opportunities and challenges while on the way to discovering your reason for being and becoming your best future self. Each chapter offers practical exercises, questions to reflect on and a call to action to set and work on goals to make the progress you want. The final chapter calls on you to be the author of your life as you toughen up and flourish through life's inevitability.
