Recommendation

The Hollis Co. CEO Dave Hollis always thought of self-help as a crutch for “broken people.” Then his wife, best-selling author Rachel Hollis, embarked on a journey of personal growth and left him behind. As she continued to reach new heights and rack up successes, he wallowed in his mediocrity, unable to get unstuck. Finally, after a lot of hard conversations and therapy, Dave Hollis identified 20 misconceptions that got in the way of his personal development, such as “real men don’t show emotion” and “failure means you’re weak.” Using himself as a case study, he shares revelations about how to move beyond the “just okay” version of yourself to become the best you can be.

Take-Aways

  • Recognize the genesis of your feelings, and identify the misconceptions that get in the way of your fulfillment.
  • Uncoupling your identity from your job title frees you to pursue joy and self-knowledge.
  • Don’t repeat what worked for you in the past. Put your experience to use in different ways.
