The Missing Variable
Have you ever followed instructions carefully, yet the results were skewed?
Have you followed every parenting rule, yet your kids still sway?
Have you taken leadership courses, yet your staff is noncompliant?
Have you been a devoted companion, yet your spouse turned away?
Have you led with passion and desire, yet your followers lack initiative?
What went wrong? What causes this dissent despite the “perfect” setup or scenario? Why is it that sometimes, the results aren't as anticipated or expected, no matter how hard you try or how much effort you apply? The Missing Variable discusses this very principle. Life is complex and unpredictable. Many factors can contribute to things not turning out as expected despite the best laid-out plan. In each situation, this book identifies and examines the missing variable. Where does it come from, and why? More importantly, how can it be anticipated, resolved, or, better yet, prevented from appearing in the first place?
The Missing Variable analyzes real-life situations, showing the proper approaches, potential variables that can interfere, and how to address them. Whether internal, external, natural, or other unforeseen circumstances, The Missing Variable provides awareness, thought-provoking ideas, suggestions, hope, and encouragement in resolving those unwarranted variables that creep into your life at the most inopportune times, allowing you to eliminate guilt and frustration, and move forward in a positive, successful, and more predictable manner.
