Are you a freak? Yes, you are, if you want to be extraordinary. In this provocative book, David Rendall shows why being outstanding comes from first standing out.

- Sally Hogshead, author, Fascinate: Your 7 Triggers to Persuasion and Captivation

If you are satisfied with your life and have already achieved your potential, then this book is not for you. If you are flawless, then this book won't be very helpful.

But if you want more from your career, you have real weaknesses and you're looking for a fresh and unconventional approach to personal transformation, then you're in the right place.

Most self-help advice focuses on finding and fixing your weaknesses. Unfortunately, that approach doesn't work. Instead, I want you to flaunt your weaknesses, exaggerate them and amplify them. Sound crazy? It is. And it works.

This book will show you how to: Achieve greater fulfillment in your life and career. Maximize your authenticity and be yourself. Discover your superpowers by uncovering your weaknesses. Create work that fits your unique characteristics. Increase your self-control by improving your fuel efficiency. Cure procrastination with a secret for completing activities you dislike.
