The Flip Side


Book Description

Flip Flippen is a personable Texan whose philosophy has changed the lives of hundreds of thousands of people--from business leaders like Jack Welch and Mark McCormack (founder of IMG), to sports figures like Terry Bradshaw and NASCAR drivers, to the 150,000 people who trained with his company, The Flippen Group, in 2005. His approach is deceptively simple: What if, instead of focusing on the things you already do well, you knew how to honestly identify your weaknesses...those habitual behaviors that continually get in your way and prevent you from ever really succeeding in the way you know you could. It's these weaknesses, your "personal constraints," that are really holding you back from success. If you could correct these behaviors, you'd see a dramatic surge in productivity and a real improvement in all aspects of your life. That's the key to Flip Flippen's program: he teaches hundreds of thousands of people each year how to identify their personal obstacles and take the necessary steps to overcome them. The vast majority of Flip's trainees are in midlife. These are people who find themselves asking, "How can I accomplish more in my life, both personally and professionally?" and "How can I get better/go further/be happier in the time I have left?" His Personal Constraint Theory helps them zero in on their primary self-sabotaging behavior and actually turn it into their greatest asset.

It's staggering to consider that the average person now has up to 40,000 negative thoughts in a single day. As if that isn't enough, most people now feel completely overwhelmed and distracted with the never-ending barrage of messages we receive via our 24/7 access to technology and the Internet.

What would your life look like if you were able to replace them with powerful habits that pulled out your highest potential? What if you could operate at your highest capacity each day in the areas of life that mattered to you most? Just imagine the possibilities. Instead of 12.8 hours of negative thoughts dragging you down each day, you could reallocate all of this wasted time, ENERGY and capacity to closing the gap on your most meaningful goals. In place of the 4,672 hours allocated to counterproductive beliefs and emotions, you could tap into the deep inner desire you have as a human being to get out and create results and a life you absolutely love.In Flip the Script, Dr. Cooper outlined a blueprint on how to break free from your biggest barriers once and for all.
