Some people can take risks - move abroad, switch careers, and give up everything to chase their dreams - with hardly a second thought. For others, looking before they leap is vital to making even simple decisions. In his first book, Nick Tasler, research and development director for cutting-edge think tank TalentSmart, turns conventional wisdom on its head by explaining that there are actually two factors that determine whether an individual will be impulsive or cautious. The first is genetic, and the second is Tasler's theory of Conditional Impulsivity, in which the gravity of a particular situation can trigger unusually risky responses from a cautious person. More than just a book, The Impulse Factorprovides a clear understanding of why we make the choices we do - and the tools to turn those decisions into something great.

What is your strategic direction? Why are obvious changes so hard to make? Are you pursuing too many top priorities? How do you avoid irrational traps without getting bogged down by over-analysis? Why Quitters Win reveals why Nick Tasler's elegantly simple 3-part strategic behavior framework is already driving excellence for everyone from Fortune 500 executives and middle managers to busy moms, small business owners and church leaders. Decades of research in social science and business strategy, as well as Tasler's own findings from surveying the decisions of hundreds of thousands of working adults reveal that the most successful people, teams, and companies are not those with access to the widest variety of opportunities or the steadiest supply of creative ideas. Surprisingly, the opposite is true. Too many exciting opportunities, good ideas, and top priorities erode our focus, confuse our teams, and keep us swirling around on a plateau of mediocrity. Why Quitters Win addresses these critical topics with a brilliantly simple approach that has the power to profoundly change your life ... one decision at a time"--Amazon.com, viewed April 21, 2014.
