Instant Motivation

Chantal Burns takes a genuinely fresh angle on motivation by arguing that your state of mind — not willpower, rewards, or technique — is what drives sustained performance. The WHSmith Recommended Non-Fiction recognition is a meaningful real-world signal, and the coaching case studies give the argument practical grounding. Readers wanting concrete step-by-step systems may find it too abstract, and the core insight overlaps with positive psychology and mindfulness thinking they may already know — but as executive coaching books go, this is clear, well-written, and honest about how motivation actually works.
