Do you want to make a difference yet face difficult circumstances, conflicting views, argumentative opposition, and emotional ups and downs?
Have you ever been frustrated and on the verge of burnout trying to do good things in the world?
Is a stress-free (and more effective) way to approach social and environmental action something that interests you?
This stress management guide for sustainability champions will forever change you and your experience of feeling stopped when you’re up to big things. It will free you from a vicious cycle of frustration and burnout – the exhaustion of advocacy.
You feel called to contribute to society and the planet for a reason. The sustainability revolution (and the world) needs you to realize your potential in order for things to improve.
You have enough facts and data. You need influence. In the words of Hunter Lovins, “It’s our job to get better at talking to them.”
After even one hour of reading this book of stories, concepts, and techniques, you’ll have the insight and inspiration you’ve been looking for.
1. Emotional intelligence – How to recognize and leverage your own emotional reactions every time for positive results
2. Environmental psychology – How to identify the 3 stages of social and environmental influence – Contempt, Curiosity and Commitment – and apply only the stage-appropriate strategy works to avoid burnout and eliminate anxiety and stress
3.Mastery of persuasion – Dozens of new approaches to influence groups and individuals: from the way you speak, to the way you write, to the way you approach problems in your life and work
Passion, like willpower, starts strong but will fade over time. If you continue to fall short of your goals, it leads to cynicism – about the world, your co-workers and bosses, and even your own ability to make a difference.
If you have damaged relationships in the past, you will logically continue to damage future relationships for the same reasons, until you try something new. You will grow more frustrated with those you believe should change. And, as many contemplate doing, if you don’t find a new approach you will eventually quit.
Instead, struggle less and accomplish more. You can be happier, have more energy, and build relationships you never thought possible. You can tackle larger and larger issues where you feel called to contribute. And you will build larger and larger coalitions in your community to enact social and environmental change.
Can you envision a world where passion and caring are constantly being translated into powerful action?
Can you picture socially- and environmentally-conscious people around the world having high-impact conversations that produce amazing results in their communities?
That can be the world you live in.
