Master of Change by Brad Stulberg

Master of Change by Brad Stulberg

From expert on sustainable excellence, coach, and bestselling author of The Practice of Groundedness comes a revelatory book on rethinking change and creating a rugged and flexible mindset amidst life's intensifying flux. We undergo change and transformation—both good and bad—regularly. From social disruptions like economic recessions, pandemics, and new technologies to individual disruptions like getting married, career transitions, and becoming a parent, change is not the exception, it’s the rule. Yet we endlessly fight it, often viewing it as a threat to our stability and sense of self. Master of Change flips this script on its head and offers a path for embracing and even growing from change, which is accelerating seemingly every day. Stulberg introduces a new model that describes change as an ongoing cycle of order, disorder, and reorder—yes, we return to stability, but that stability is somewhere new. Rather than resist change we benefit from being in conversation with it. Drawing on convergence between modern science, ancient wisdom, and daily practice, he offers concrete principles for developing a mindset called rugged flexibility, along with the habits and practices to implement it. Readers will learn: How to open to the flow of life. The importance of expectations. How to cultivate a fluid yet firm sense of self. How to create the space to respond not react to life's challenges. The paradox of making meaning and moving forward. And so much more. The result is a timely and transformative book that reshapes change and shows you how to grow in its midst, moving forward better, stronger, and wiser than you were before.

"Change is inevitableWill you let this reality destabilize or empower you? Brad Stulberg's immensely wise and timely book provides a powerful roadmap for a tumultuous world." — Cal Newport, New York Times bestselling author of Digital Minimalism and Deep Work “According to the Greek philosopher Heraclitus, you can’t step in the same river twice. Brad Stulberg makes you wonder why you’d want to. Change is inevitable, but if we learn to struggle with it, not against it, we become like rivers ourselves: fluid, flexible, yet ruggedly defined. This book speaks to the twists and eddies in our lives with uncommon warmth and wisdom.”  — Kieran Setiya, author of Life Is Hard: How Philosophy Can Help Us Find Our Way
