SHOOT FOR THE MOON

The hardback original edition had the sub-title 'Achieve the Impossible with the Apollo Mindset', and our new paperback edition 'How the Moon Landings Taught Us The 8 Secrets of Success.' The edition includes new stories and interviews from the team behind the Apollo 11 mission. Professor Wiseman presents a pioneering study of the mindset that took humanity to the Moon, and shows how you can harness and use it to achieve extraordinary things in your everyday life. Combining personal interviews, mission archives and cutting-edge psychology, he identifies eight key principals that make up the Apollo Mindset, including how pessimism is crucial to success, and how fear and tragedy can be transformed into hope and optimism. Lift off and find out how you can create ideas that are out of this world and shoot for the Moon, reap the rewards of self-belief, find out how you can learn from failure, develop an attitude that gives you altitude, find the courage to stop talking and start doing, how you can prepare for almost every eventuality and how you can thrive in the face of the unexpected. With useful timeline beginning in October 1957 when the Soviets launched Sputnik and November 1957 when Sputnik 2 carries Laika the dog into space and April 1961 when Russian cosmonaut Yuri Gagarin orbits the Earth. 272pp, paperback with summaries and tips and Memos to Self.
