Book excerpt: DISCOVER THE HIDDEN ADVANTAGES OF STRESS The vast majority of “stress less” books are concerned with the modern problem of too much stress and how to reduce it. Not this one. This book is about the advantages of stress, clarifying the critical role that intentionally engaged stress plays in personal and professional development. Confident Under Pressure weaves colorful personal stories, recent neuroscience, the research of human performance experts, and the inspiration of leading business executives into a compelling and lucid argument for moving towards stress, conflict and change, to become more creative, effective and happy in life, on the way to making our highest contribution in the world. The result is an eminently readable and practical book that anyone can use, at home, on the job, and in one-on-one relationships. RICK LEWIS translates a lifetime of training in performance technique into the business realm, now using his knowledge to drive results for professionals. Author of 7 Rules You Were Born to Break, he shares his insights on “Intelligent Misbehavior” with hundreds of Fortune 500 and other companies.
