Ordinary People Doing Extraordinary Things

Personality Isn't Permanent with Dr. Benjamin Hardy


Listen Later

In episode 427, I chat with Organizational Psychologist Dr. Benjamin Hardy who is also the best selling author of "WillPower Doesn't Work" and has a new book out called "Personality Isn't Permanent."

Listen as he tells the story of why a personality test could have prevented the great relationship he has with his wife and part of what lead him to creating his new book.

He talks about why:

  • Personality tests don't tell the full story of who someone is
  • These tests seem to be popular and why they're not psychologically sound and could be harmful
  • We tend to change over time and why we must
  • Labels about ourselves are not always true and how they differ from identity
  • We need to push ourselves to do things that make us uncomfortable to build our confidence
  • People stop learning as adults, but why we must
  • To focus on one major goal that impacts all areas of your life and how he's done it for himself

Purchase his book on Amazon or Barnes and Noble.
