“Doing What Works, Doing What Matters

#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER

Dr. Phillip McGraw’s 10 Life Laws and Life Strategies offer individuals the opportunity to take control of their lives. And break free from destructive patterns. With over fifteen years of experience, Dr. McGraw delves into each of these laws. Providing valuable insights and strategies for success. One of the key principles emphasized is that people do what works. This means that individuals tend to repeat behaviors that have yielded positive results in the past. By understanding this law, one can identify and reinforce actions that lead to success while eliminating those that hinder progress.

Another important life law highlighted by Dr. McGraw is that life rewards action. This principle emphasizes the importance of taking proactive steps toward achieving goals and dreams. Merely wishing for success or waiting for opportunities to come knocking is not enough. By taking action and actively pursuing one’s aspirations, individuals increase their chances of success and fulfillment.

Dr. McGraw also emphasizes that life is managed, not cured. This means that challenges and obstacles are a natural part of life, and it is essential to develop effective strategies to navigate through them. Rather than seeking a quick fix or a cure-all solution, individuals should focus on managing their circumstances and making the best possible choices in any given situation.

In his book, “Life Strategies,” Dr. McGraw provides readers with a wealth of resources to help them apply these life laws in their own lives. The book includes case studies, checklists, and practical strategies that can be tailored to individual needs and circumstances. By following these principles and utilizing the provided tools, readers can develop the necessary skills to take responsibility for their actions, break free from self-destructive patterns, and ultimately achieve success and fulfillment in various aspects of their lives.
