Pursuing success in isolation--pushing others away as we push ourselves too hard--not only limits our potential but makes us more stressed and disconnected than ever. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eHarvard-trained researcher Shawn Achor reveals a better approach. With exciting new research combining neuroscience and psychology with Big Data, Achor shows that our potential is not limited by what we alone can achieve. Instead, it is determined by how we complement, contribute to, and benefit from the abilities and achievements of people around us. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eWhen we--as individuals, leaders, and parents--chase only individual achievement, we leave vast sources of potential untapped. But once we put \"others\" back into the equation, and work to make others better, we ignite a Virtuous Cycle of cascading successes that amplify our own. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThe dramatic shifts in how we approach work today demand an equally dramatic shift in our approach to success.
