The true path to success and achievement lies in the pursuit of perfecting lots and lots of small things--for a big payoff. Combiningpositive psychology, neuroscience, self-help and more, this delightfully illuminating book encourages us to circumvent all the reasons we "can't" learn and grow (we're too busy, it's too complicated, we're not experts, we didn't start when we were young)-- by tackling small, satisfying skills.
