One of 9 self-help books like You Are a Badass.
What We Reading, the book recommendation site, named You Are Capable of More one of nine self-help books for readers who loved Jen Sincero’s You Are a Badass, alongside titles by Mark Manson, Simon Sinek, Brianna Wiest and Marie Forleo.
The push, then the plan.
The list is built for readers who finished You Are a Badass and want the next book that keeps them moving. What We Reading frames You Are Capable of More as the natural follow-up: where Sincero helps you stop doubting yourself, this book gives you a plan for what to do next.
The write-up covers the survey behind the book, in which 92% of working adults said they were capable of more than they were doing, and the barriers that kept showing up: self-doubt and fear of failure, not enough time, getting too comfortable and a lack of clarity. It also notes the closing Playbook and the book’s awards.
If you liked You Are a Badass.
- A plan, not just a pep talk.Every chapter ends with actions you can take that same day, and the Playbook at the end pulls them together so you can keep coming back to it.
- Built on what holds people back.The book draws on the Untapped Potential Report, Chris’s survey of more than 200 working adults, and the barriers they named.
- Real stories, told honestly.Each principle is grounded in a story from Chris’s own life, including the setbacks, so the lessons feel like they came from somewhere.
