Pink, bestselling author of When and Drive ___________________________________________ What if being lucky was a skill that you could master and share with other people? Modern life is full of chance encounters, changing plans, delayed journeys, human errors and other mishaps. But what if we could use such unpredictability to our advantage? Dr Christian Busch has spent a decade exploring how, if acted upon, unexpected encounters can enhance our worldview, expand our social circles and create new professional opportunities. In this book, Christian reveals the secrets behind the hidden force that rules the universe: serendipity. Connect the Dots is a revolutionary, well-researched exploration of an essential life skill that we can all develop in a few simple steps. By learning to identify, act on and share serendipity, we can use uncertainty as a pathway to more joyful, purposeful and successful lives. From couples who first met during chance encounters to businesspeople who invented world-changing ideas after a best-laid plan misfired, Dr Busch has studied hundreds of subjects who improved their lives by learning to see opportunities in the unexpected. ___________________________________________ 'Busch shows convincingly that it's more than blind luck in Connect the Dots, which offers excellent practical guidance for all' Paul Polman, former CEO of Unilever and co-founder of Imagine 'More than just a way to create exciting opportunities, it's the foundation for a more optimistic and meaningful life.
