The Outside Edge: How Outsiders Can Succeed in a World Made by Insiders

The brand new book from the international bestselling self–help author Robert Kelsey’s internationally bestselling self–help books have helped tens of thousands of people overcome fear of failure and under confidence. Now Robert is back and is here to debunk the ever pervasive myths around the trail–blazing rebel outsider…As Robert says himself, the fashionable commentators are extremely keen to cry ‘Be a rebel outsider and the modern world will fall at your feet: your talent celebrated, your ideas worshiped’. If only it were true. In reality outsiders are usually disabled by feelings of alienation and disaffection, and by their inability to fit–in within a world made by insiders. Far from being celebrated, the vast majority of outsiders are potentially chained to a life of low–attainment, mental–isolation, frustration, bitterness and surrender. If you feel this way, all is not lost. The Outside Edge is all about learning to harness the unique vantage point you possess in order to give yourself the edge required to succeed. It will show you when to embrace your outsider status and go against convention, and when to play the game, do as the insiders do and make sure you can get progress. Think of The Outside Edge as the life manual that will help you not only overcome negative feelings of exclusion but turn those into your USP – your edge. By getting The Outside Edge you can:• Gain insight into both the root causes of alienation and the all–encompassing negative consequences• Gain the confidence, guile and know–how to profitably “rebel”.• Avoid pitfalls such as poor judgement, negativity and extremism• Unlock the key to success and address the real obstacles hindering your professional and personal growth INDICE: Introduction: Debunking the outsider mythPart One: The making of an outsider1 The misfits2 The crisis of identity3 Adolescence, family and opportunity4 Existentialism and the need for a purposePart Two: The rebel with a cause5 Finding meaning6 The pursuit of excellence7 The entrepreneurial spiritPart Three: Edge ahead8 Developing our creativity9 Learning to pitch10 Getting strategic11 Using judgementPart Four: The wrong voices12 Avoiding negativity13 the danger of extremism14 Utilizing (constructive) sociopathyConclusion: An extraordinary vantage point10 rules for outsiders to obeyAbout Robert KelseyIndex
