Bol A pioneering psychologist reveals the most effective route to success relies on just three emotions Gratitude, compassion and pride – not willpower – hold the secret to achieving your goals Using cutting-edge research, world-leading psychologist David DeSteno shows you how gratitude, compassion and pride are far more powerful than grim determination and self-denial in achieving your goals. Whereas willpower is quickly depleted, our prosocial emotions – the feelings that enable us to build effective social bonds – become stronger the more we use them. Even better, they’re contagious. · Cultivating gratitude, compassion, and pride leads to better cardiovascular health, immune function and sleep · Students who feel proud of their work will work 40% harder and longer than others · Empathy and compassion are the best predictors of team success “Are high achievers simply blessed with more willpower than the rest of us? DeSteno's provocative argument is that the science of success is, in fact, very much the science of social emotions like gratitude and compassion. I, for one, am convinced!” – Angela Duckworth, author of Grit. David DeSteno is Professor of Psychology at Northeastern University.
