Have you ever had the feeling that life is passing you by? That somehow, somewhere, you took a wrong turning, and that you're not living the life you should be living? That you're not the person you could be, if only - ? In this stunningly wide-ranging and fascinating book, Andrew Jenkins takes the reader on a journey of exploration into just how these feelings arise, through the development of what he calls the 'acquired self', and how, by making use of the extraordinary plasticity of our brains, we can re-educate our thoughts and behaviours and return to our 'authentic selves' - and have happy, effective and fulfilled lives.

About the Author

Andrew has read and studied widely, and his book draws on some of the most recent discoveries in the neurosciences, but it is far from being a dry academic study. In writing this book he has one single aim, and that is to provide a practical guide, with carefully sequenced exercises, through which his readers may rediscover their joy in living and develop their ability to act effectively and well. You Are More Than You Think is the result of over twenty-five years working with high-level executives, managers and teams, in which Andrew Jenkins has explored and applied what works best to help individuals become fully themselves, so their teams, their organisations, and all around them can benefit.

Reviews
"As human beings we tend to be creatures of habit, some of those habits support us and some de-rail us. Our thoughts, feelings, beliefs and behaviours create our world. Andrew's own story is inspirational, he is living proof that you can change your conditioning and reinvent your life. By reading You Are More Than You Think, Andrew helps you learn in days what could take decades to discover. I was blown away by the content in this book, Andrew has left no stone unturned. It really is a one stop shop for personal development. If you want to have more, become more and live a more authentic and fulfilling life, this is the book for you." Bev James, CEO of The Coaching Academy, Best Selling Author of Do it! or Ditch it. ---------------"The author has created a piece which is both a workbook for, and an exploratory journey towards, the 'authentic self'. This journey not only includes time-honoured approaches from NLP, hypnotherapy, coaching and others - cutting-edge research such as; the latest developments in the field of neuroplasticity, and the mind - body connection, will take you into new dimensions giving potential for rapid change. There is clear demonstration of the author 'walking the talk', as Andrew shares his own journey and connects this with the tools for change he is presenting. I particularly liked the inclusion of Andrew's own naturalistic artwork and diagrams that personalise the whole reading experience. This book was surprising, revealing itself as more than a 'how to' approach, and became a fascinating journey about aligning our life's purpose with our true selves." Jason Fletcher, Principal at MindWorks Therapy Training ------------------ "If you've ever wondered if there was more to discover about yourself, then Andrew's book will take you on a fascinating journey where you will find out how to be and express more of the real you. A journey towards your authentic self." Roger Terry, Master NLP Trainer
