Overview

Master the art of successful relationships and outcomes.Through a unique blend of neuroscience and communication theory, you'll uncover how the brain drives every interaction - and learn proven tools to steer conversations where you want them to go. You know those life-changing, life-defining moments that come through every now and then? That moment, while feeling few and far between, isn't as rare as you might think. All it takes is one second. One second to take control of your life. In his new book, Wizard Brain or Monkey Mind: Which is in Control?, author Jim Halderman posits a simple hypothesis: when you understand your brain, you can control your reaction to situations, your body communicates better, and every interaction improves. Simply, will I be respected and heard, or will I bury my truth. That ""one second"" in between comprehension and action determines your emotional control, your relationships, and your success. Because most communication is nonverbal, Jim introduces the theory that managing your mind-and therefore your physiology-is far more critical than choosing the right words. Wizard Brain or Monkey Mind: Which is in Control? is a unique mix of neuroscience and communication theory that explains how the brain drives every interaction. After finishing, readers may: Have a better handle on difficult conversations Improve family dynamics. Stay calm under pressure. Navigate a polarized world by understanding how your mind works and how to control that internal space. Learn how to deal with the strong personality or bully Learn to speak your truth Despite being billed as a neuroscience-communication theory hybrid, Wizard Brain or Monkey Mind: Which is in Control? is designed to be simple, practical, and useful for anyone who talks to other humans, whether you're a spouse, a negotiator, or just someone standing in a grocery line.
