Distancing

In Distancing, David Marquet and Michael Gillespie show us how to become our own coach using a powerful mental technique called psychological distancing. By practicing:

• Self-distancing: we can be someone else by adopting the perspective of an outside observer.
• Spatial distancing: we can be somewhere else by zooming out and seeing ourselves as part of a larger picture.
• Temporal distancing: we can be sometime else by making decisions from the vantage point of our future self.

Backed by compelling scientific research, real-world examples and practical exercises, Distancing empowers you to break free from self-limiting patterns and make clearer, smarter choices. The tools are simple. The impact is profound.
