Harness Your PromisePower: Change Life, Transform the World

Bol

Matthew Cossolotto made a promise to his dying mother. That unbreakable commitment propelled him down a life-changing path as an author and speaker and ultimately inspired Harness Your PromisePower, a new book that explores why heartfelt promises can drive transformation when goals and resolutions often fall short."I think of promise-making as the new frontier in personal change and achievement," Cossolotto said. "You can change a goal or abandon a New Year's resolution, but you can only break a promise. And most people are loath to break their promises."In Harness Your PromisePower, Cossolotto recounts in heartwarming detail the life-changing promise he made to his mother and the profound impact it had on both his life and career. That deeply personal story sets the stage for a broader exploration of promise-making as a powerful, and often overlooked, tool for personal change.Chicken Soup for the Soul co-creator Jack Canfield contributes the book's foreword, in which he reflects on a defining promise he made at age 27 - one he credits with helping shape his sense of purpose and long-term success."Perhaps after reading this book and learning more about the power of making a promise," Canfield writes, "more people will take advantage of this amazing, irresistible force for positive change -- a resource that should be regarded as one of our greatest treasures in life."Harness Your PromisePower features scores of inspiring stories from and about real people - including some familiar names - who made life-altering promises and kept their word. The book also provides practical advice and step-by-step pointers to help readers tap into their innate power of making a promise.
