Get Unstuck & Get Going ...on the stuff that matters is a dynamic self-coaching tool from Michael Bungay Stanier.

Get Unstuck & Get Going shows exactly how coaching can be available to all of us, all of the time and offers a way for anyone to get unstuck creatively, quickly and systematically. Available at www.GetUnstuckAndGetGoing.com.

Toronto, Canada (PRWEB) October 22, 2005 -- Think about those endless and pointless meetings, the chores that won’t go away, the grind of the commute, the stuff that makes you grit your teeth. You may sit and ask yourself “Why exactly am I wasting my life with this?” Further, you may wonder how to move ahead with something that is more meaningful to you.

In the new book Get Unstuck & Get Going ...on the stuff that matters (Box of Crayons Press; US$60, Hardcover, September 21, 2005) Michael Bungay Stanier shows exactly how coaching can be available to all of us, all of the time.

Taking a stand against the belief that coaching is only available to the senior executive or those willing to shell out top dollar, Michael Bungay Stanier offers a way for anyone to get unstuck creatively, quickly and systematically.

Recognizing that no self-help book can provide a "one size fits all" answer, Get Unstuck & Get Going …on the stuff that matters provides the stimulus for inspiration and the rigorous process to help users move from stuck to action – and in doing so, create their own answers for personal and professional breakthroughs.

Bungay Stanier has reinvented the self-help book as a tool that is creative and practical, simple yet profound. Inspired by a child’s flip book, Get Unstuck & Get Going can produce 125,000 different combinations of possibilities and new perspectives. When combined with the Action Acceleration Sheet – a coaching worksheet that takes you from stuck to action – you have a coaching tool like no other.

"You have to love this book for its format alone, let alone its wisdom," comments business guru and author Peter Block. “It shows the impact of great design and how what is profound does not have to be obscure. Plus there is a quiet political message in it that coaching is available to all of us and is not a profession, but a way of being with each other. Buy the book, give it to people you care about, and pick it up when you feel lost, which for most of us, is all the time."

The book is available at www.getunstuckandgetgoing.com.
