Description:

What if your best days weren’t left to chance, but something you could control and activate at will? Most of us want to be a little happier, a little more focused, and a lot less stressed. We want simple approaches that are easy to fold into our everyday lives.
 
In
Sharp, you’ll discover dozens of evidence-backed strategies to help you unlock your potential and enhance your performance—whether at work, school, home, or in relationships.
Cognitive scientist Therese Huston unpacks the latest neuroscience research to deliver a gold mine of techniques to help you feel your sharpest including: 
  • How a calming deep breathing technique improves decision-making 
  • Exactly what kind of exercise helps you think on your feet

Editorial Reviews

Review

“What makes Therese Huston's 'Sharp' truly exceptional is how seamlessly it bridges the gap between complex neuroscience and everyday application. In a world where many struggle not from lack of knowledge but from an inability to access their skills under pressure, Huston provides the missing piece of the puzzle. Her science-backed techniques for calming the mind, improving focus, and enhancing decision-making are precisely what negotiators and anyone facing difficult conversations need most.”
—Kwame Christian, author of Finding Confidence in Conflict and host of the Negotiate Anything podcast

"A fun, fact-filled exploration of the neuroscience of self-improvement, offering suggestions everyone can use.  Huston presents a clear and engaging review of scientific findings, often overturning conventional wisdom, and pointing to simple ways we all can be sharper, healthier, happier and more constructive at work and in all phases of our lives."
—James L. McClelland, Professor of Psychology at Stanford University, Director of the Center for Mind, Brain, Computation and Technology

“This user’s guide to your brain is the most practical, down-to-earth, and funny manual on mastering your life I’ve ever read.”
—Eddie Stern, author of Healing Through Breathing, Four Lessons for Lasting Health and Happiness and One Simple Thing: A New Look at the Science of Yoga and How It Can Transform Your Life

“This book should be read by anyone who’s ever wished they could turn a frazzled mind into focused energy.  
Sharp distills the latest findings in neuroscience into straightforward, actionable insights for your everyday life.  Imagine if, instead of hoping for a good day, you had the tools to create one. With Sharp, you can.”
—Scott Barry Kaufman, author of Transcend, Professor of Psychology at Columbia University, Director of the Center for Human Potential, creator and host of The Psychology Podcast

 “This book stands out from the pack. It provides concrete steps and daily practices, coupled with a depth of knowledge about biology and neuroscience. Dr. Huston’s training as a scientist, teacher, and educator has allowed her to do the hard work to improve your productivity and efficiency. Run, do not walk, to get this book, and read it cover-to-cover.”
—Marlene Behrmann, Professor of Ophthalmology, University of Pittsburgh, former Director of the Center for the Neural Basis of Cognition
