The motto of this book is smarter through laughter. If you can laugh
about it, you can probably change it. The authors use a heavy dose of
humor (the laughing side), and a healthy measure of science (the
learning side) to help you improve yourself, your relationships, and
your surroundings. The book introduces the “I CAN model,” which
stands for Interactions, Context, Awareness, and Next steps.
Interactions are powerful determinants of health and happiness. There
are two skills that can make our interactions healthier: the ability
to connect and the capacity to communicate. Context is also a powerful
but often neglected driver of change. The contexts of our lives
consist of people, places, and things. To leverage context to our
advantage we need to master the art of reading cues and changing cues
in the environment. Awareness is the next driver of change. Regardless
of where you are in the process of change, there is always a next step
to strengthen your change, maintain your gains, and keep thriving. To
do that, you need to make a plan, and you need to make it stick. The
book will teach you how to use these drivers of change to flourish and
thrive.
