It's Not About The Shark

We all have problems, be it professional or personal.  When we’re faced with these problems, most of us tend to fixate on it, focusing on every aspect of the issue until it’s resolved. But how effective is this approach? David Niven, author of It’s Not About The Shark, shows us that this is precisely what we shouldn’t be doing to get to the solution- dwelling on these problems comes with its own set of consequences. David joins us to share simple but solid principles that will transform how we tackle these problems in our daily life.
