Bigger, Better, Bolder

Live the Life You Want, Not the Life You Get

By: Jennifer Cohen

Narrated by: Jennifer Cohen

Get the life you want by being bold, resilient, and creating specific goals and habits with indispensable advice from Jennifer Cohen, a superstar motivational coach.

I know what it takes to get what you want in life. It’s a habit anyone can learn, a skill you can develop, a gift you don’t need to be born with. The more experience you get, the more confident you’ll be. Even when you fail, you’ll feel stronger with each try you make. At work, at home, wherever your life unfolds—be bold. Take action. Ask for the right things. Chase what you want instead of taking what you can get. What do you want most in life, and why don’t you have it?

Think about the things that give your life depth, focus, and meaning: deeply satisfying relationships with plenty of give and take, physical health and emotional wellbeing, passion projects, self-esteem, and self-respect. Bold people have these things. Bold people recognize what’s holding them back—and it's almost always a fear of failure. They train to overcome their fears, they embrace the 10% Target, and they create everyday, life-long habits to get what they want.

Bigger, Better, Bolder brings readers one step closer to boldness, one chapter at a time. With practical takeaways and action steps—bite-sized Bold Moves—and real-life case studies of boldness in action, Jennifer Cohen teaches you how to get what you want.

Great audio book and perfect for new grads

This would be a perfect gift for new grads. I highly recommend and have already started using some of her principles

Boldness may get you something even better

Bigger, Better, Bolder is such a great reminder that we need to go out there and make it happen. Her 10 times rule where you attempt your ask or try at least 10 times (that way if you fail 90% of the time you will still succeed) is a great guiding life principle. When I work with young people they will often say “I tried it.” However, when you really dig down, they did not give it a full-hearted try before crossing it off their list, which leaves their life unsatisfying. Jennifer shares her successes and failures and draws on the experiences and wisdom of others to give many examples about how fortune favors the brave. That even if you do not get what you want, you may just get something better. The road to success is paved with failures. When you are done with the book you will want to go out there and follow your dreams.

Really great book!

I love the concept of boldness. We need more people to be bold and just get sh*t done. We overthink too much and end up stagnant. I enjoyed all of the examples of boldness and failure in her own life.

Ready to be bold.

Love Jennifer’s examples of being bold and her her story. Her voice was very steady and easy to follow.

Timely

Just what I needed to hear. I’ve been coasting for a bit. Time to light the fire and ask for what I want.
