About the Book: Distancing by David Marquet and Michael Gillespie presents a science-based approach to making clearer, wiser decisions by stepping outside your immediate perspective. Through psychological distancing, readers learn to become their own coach by viewing situations from different vantage points. Self-distancing encourages an outside-observer perspective, spatial distancing creates a broader view, and temporal distancing helps you consider decisions through the eyes of your future self. Backed by scientific research, practical exercises and real-world examples, this insightful guide helps readers overcome cognitive biases, break unhelpful patterns and make more objective, confident choices in both personal and professional life.
