—BRANT PINVIDIC, bestselling author of The 3-Minute Rule, television producer of Bar Rescue, The Biggest Loser, and Pawn Stars

—MICHAEL NEILL, international bestselling author of The Inside-Out Revolution and Creating the Impossible
“If you’re thinking of making a change in your career and you’re struggling with creating your future, read this book—and change the way you think about success and failure.”

What could make this easier?
"He wanted control. Control and confidence. So he could do what needed to be done. He wanted out of the death-spiral that had gripped his organization. He wanted freedom. Options. A new perspective."
In this innovative work of storytelling, bestselling author Chris Westfall provides insight and thought-provoking strategies for overcoming the most difficult of circumstances.
You know the drill: the business of life can be tough. Deadlines. Relationships. Expectations. Conflict. Challenges are everywhere. But there’s a way to show up where you find new choices—even when life isn’t easy.
When it looks like life, career, communication, and everything else is breaking down, it’s time to break free. It’s time to access a kind of personal freedom that allows you to make different choices. To see things in a different way. To enter into an understanding of what would make your situation easier.
Written in a narrative style that’s reminiscent of The Go-Giver, The Goal, or The Five Dysfunctions of a Team, Easier is a conversation: a conversation between a client and a coach, and a conversation where new ideas and new possibilities emerge from the most unlikely places. Inside this book, you’ll discover how to move from “How do I get through this?” to “What can I get from this?” The answer is in your hands. Learn how to overcome distractions, deal with difficult people, and find a way to be easier on yourself, no matter what it is that you are up against.
For leaders, coaches, entrepreneurs, and athletes, find out how to access peak performance. Discover how you can serve yourself, and your clients, more fully, more completely, and more powerfully. And wouldn’t that make everything easier?

This book is a new twist on many principles that are familiar yet often forgotten! The great message it uncovers is that we are often both the greatest obstacle and golden key to our own success! We are more creative and powerful than we know. Having the courage to confront our fears can add new perspective to everything we approach in life. If we rest in the ideas that we are not our thoughts, circumstances, or feelings, we can experience them without judgment and trust ourselves to find solutions.

Deadlines, Relationships, Expectations. Conflict. Challenges can all make life difficult! Easier will show you exactly how to make life EASIER, even during the tough times.
This awesome book follows the conversation between Client and Coach. A very similar style to the wildly popular Go-Giver! Written by one of the most sought-after coach’s and speakers - Chris Westfall.

I like that the author used a story to help reinforce his points. I struggled with takeaways in this book though, title says 60 ways to make life easier, but didn’t feel like I walked away with that many? Definitely a few though. “Work at my own pace, don’t compete with others, serve others and you’ll win” and more. No regret that I read it.

A very typical self help book and offers less on new learning!
