Part of the bestselling Surrounded by Idiots series! In Surrounded by Setbacks
internationally bestselling author Thomas Erikson turns his attention to a universal problem:
what to do when things go wrong. Too often it seems like our dreams and ambitions-whether
it's finally getting that corner office lacing up your running shoes again or building a
flourishing relationship with your partner-are derailed by one roadblock or another. So how do
we learn to take setbacks in stride and still achieve our goals? In Surrounded by Setbacks
Erikson answers that question. Using simple actionable steps Erikson helps readers identify
the "why" behind their goal create a concrete plan towards achieving it and-most
importantly-avoid many of the most common pitfalls that derail us when we attempt something
new. The simple 4-color behavior system that made Surrounded by Idiots revolutionary now helps
readers reflect on how they respond to adversity giving them the self-awareness to negotiate
the inevitable obstacles of life with confidence.
