Do you feel you need to do everything yourself and can’t ask for help?
Has it become so extreme you feel like you’re on a runaway train and don’t know how to pull the emergency stop?
You’re not alone.
Author Peggy Collins is a reformed “Self-Sufficient,” so she understands exactly what you’re going through. This is the first life-enhancing guide designed to help people like you who can’t or won’t ask for help: the overloaded employee who won’t seek assistance; the overachieving manager who refuses to delegate assignments; the overwhelmed super-mom who picks up the kids while closing the biggest sale of her career on her cell phone.
Filled with revealing self-tests, surprising case studies, and stress-busting exercises, this important new book offers a variety of proven strategies you can use to reduce the day-to-day anxiety and address the causes of Self-Sufficiency Syndrome.
Even if you believe that refusing to ask for help is a sign of strength and a source of pride, you’ll quickly find that knowing who, how, and when to ask for help will be the strongest and smartest thing you can do-for your career, for your family, and for yourself.
