Impetus (Tiny tactics for making progress)

Ground to a halt? What you need is Impetus.

Everyone gets stuck at some point in their working day. You don’t know what to do next – or you do know, but just don’t want to do it. And maybe there’s no one there who can help.

This is a book for that moment.

Whatever’s keeping you stuck – constraints, resistance, objections, ignorance, panic, boredom, weariness – Impetus offers you a compendium of practical and manageable actions for the quick next step that will get you unstuck. Small wins that will give you the momentum to get going, and keep going, so you can do the work that matters.

Including a simple diagnostic tool to help you to choose the right tactic, real examples that show how it will help you and notes on the science to explain why, this book will get you moving again with confidence.
