Proven techniques from a practitioner. True stories.
I’m Michal Stawicki and I live in Poland, Europe. I’ve been married for over 15 years and am the father of two boys and one girl. I work full time in the IT industry, and recently, I’ve become an author. My passions are transparency, integrity and progress.
In August 2012, I read a book called “The Slight Edge” by Jeff Olson. It took me a whole month to start implementing ideas from this book. That led me to reading numerous other books on personal development, some effective, some not so much. I took a look at myself and decided this was one person who could surely use some development.
In November of 2012, I created my personal mission statement; I consider it the real starting point of my progress. Over several months time, I applied several self-help concepts and started building inspiring results: I lost some weight, greatly increased my savings, built new skills and got rid of bad habits while developing better ones.
I’m very pragmatic, a “down to earth” person. I favor utilitarian, bottom-line results over pure artistry. Despite the ridiculous language, however, I found there is value in the “hokey-pokey visualization” stuff and I now see it as my mission to share what I have learned.
My books are not abstract. I avoid going mystical as much as possible. I don’t believe that pure theory is what we need in order to change our lives; the Internet age has proven this quite clearly. What you will find in my books are:
– detailed techniques and methods describing how you can improve your skills and drive results in specific areas of your life
– real life examples
– personal stories
So, whether you are completely new to personal development or have been crazy about the Law of Attraction for years, if you are looking for concrete strategies, you will find them in my books. My writing shows that I am a relatable, ordinary guy and not some ivory tower guru.
