We all know what it is … that little something that if we could tweak a bit would make a positive difference in our life. What might that be for you? An extra hour of sleep, 30 minutes of alone time, more time with a hobby, a cleaner desk drawer? They seem like little things, and perhaps seem like they should be easy to make, yet often little changes are harder to make than anticipated.

Being a successful, ongoing ‘tweaker’ of your own life is important if you desire to become the person you want to be. Small adjustments support our happiness; assure that we have time for people, places, and things that are important to us; create maximum time for fun; make obligations easier to manage; and even influence our physical health.

Science is now able to give us easy tips for making ongoing changes. Don’t miss Kelly McGonigal, Ph.D., internationally known, bestselling author and health psychologist, as she shares science-help stories that we can use to make tweaking our health, happiness or professional life easier and successful.

100 copies of her bestselling book, The Willpower Instinct: How Self-Control Works, Why It Matters, and What You Can Do to Get More of It will be given away at this FREE event.
