Overview

This best-selling book is a primer for how to navigate the world - from yourself and your family to your work life! Whether you are just starting out or have been working for some time, anyone from front-line workers to CEOs have benefitted from using Darci's 90% philosophy.

 

Darci Lang has discovered a solution to help you live your life, do your job, and connect with the people who matter most, to the fullest. This book offers you one simple tool that will change the way you view your life.

 

Each of us holds a magnifying glass and we get to choose what to do with it. We can focus it on the negative 10% in our lives - those things and people that bother us and drag us down - or we can choose to focus on the 90% in our lives that is positive and beneficial.

 

The journey begins by looking in the mirror and learning to see yourself through the 90% lens. We can't love others if we don't love ourselves; however, we can love them more fully if we love ourselves first.

 

Darci then explores your focus at work and those you work with. So many people are dealing with guilt and balance issues. One of the greatest ways to deal with these challenges is to give your best when you are with your family. You feel guilty when you come home and give what is "left over." It's important to have something left for the people you love at the end of the day.

 

We all have at least 10% negative aspects of our job - sometimes it seems like more. When we go to work with our magnifying glass on the 10% of our job, the ripple effect is huge. It first affects how we do our job because it is difficult to be enthusiastic about something we don't enjoy. So what do you do with negative, 10% people? You can't make other people happy, they have to do that themselves. Only you can control you. That's it. We can't control others and their behaviours. So what do we coexist amongst the unhappy? The best way is to see them through our 90% magnifying glass. Look past the behavior to the soul of the person.

 

Lastly, Darci looks at clients through the 90% lens. It's not realistic to expect to keep 100% of our clients happy but we tend to focus on the 10% who will never be happy. We spend 90% of our time on those 10% clients, some of whom were probably never going to be happy in the first place. If we have the courage to do whatever we do for a living, we have to be willing to catch the 10%s that come with it.

 

Used by thousands of Darci's audience members and book readers, the magnifying glass has become a symbol of transformation. Relatable and authentic, Darci's words and examples will leave you feeling empowered to take control of your happiness at work, home, and throughout your life.
