Publisher's Summary

As he did in Who Not How, Dr. Benjamin Hardy shares one of Dan Sullivan's simple yet profound teachings that until now has been known only to his Strategic Coach clients: unsuccessful people focus on "The Gap", but successful people focus on "The Gain".

"[T]his one simple concept is a masterclass on positive psychology, healthy relationships, mental well-being, and high-performance. Everything that psychologists know about how to create a high-functioning and successful person can be achieved using The GAP and the GAIN." (Dr. Benjamin Hardy)

Most people, especially highly ambitious people, are unhappy because of how they measure their progress. We all have an "ideal", a moving target that is always out of reach. When we measure ourselves against that ideal, we're in "the gap". However, when we measure ourselves against our previous selves, we're in "the gain".

That is where the gap and the gain concept comes in. It was developed by legendary entrepreneur coach Dan Sullivan and is based on his work with tens of thousands of successful entrepreneurs. When Dan's coaching clients periodically take stock of all that they've accomplished - both personally and professionally - they are often shocked at how much they have actually achieved. They weren't able to appreciate their progress because no matter how much they were getting done, they were usually measuring themselves against their ideals or goals.

In this book you will learn that measuring your current self vs. your former self has enormous psychological benefits. And that's really the key to this deceptively simple yet multilayered concept that will have you feeling good, feeling grateful, and feeling like you are making progress even when times are tough, which will in turn will bolster motivation, confidence, and future success.

If you're finding that happiness eludes you no matter how much you've achieved, then learning this easy mindset shift will set you on a life-changing path to greater fulfillment and success.

Brilliant concept explained well

I purchased the book with lot of scepticism. But as I started listening I was overwhelmed by the potential the concept can bring to life if implemented systematically. Having finished the audio now is the time to get the best out of the concept

Great concept ! The Gap and the Gain. The key , AMB ( ALWAYS MEASURE progress BACKWARDS ).....

Where you want to be?

In the (GAP)
OR
in the (GAIN)

There (the ideal , perfect situation , the horizon line that never seems to get closer)
or
here ( in the now ,in the present moment ,enjoying the process of evolving ) ?

(needing) something in order to be happy
or
Simply want to be happy.

YOU DECIDE!

Gain is where the freedom is.

“You decide what success means to you, and you choose the life you’ll live.”

By Being in the GAIN....

“You realize that you’re living that life now.”

Want to know how to be in the gain?
Just deep dive into the 📖 book and the authors will help you shift from the gap to the gain mindset.
Highly recommend this book.
