Turn your inner voice from critic to coachWe all have a voice in our head. We tune into its endless chatter to look for guidance, ideas and wisdom. Except sometimes, this voice leads us down a rabbit hole of negative self-talk and endless rumination. These silent conversations are so powerful they can sink our mood, trip us up and even impact our health. How can we take back control? This is the question award-winning psychologist Ethan Kross set out to answer twenty years ago when he began an audacious mission - to study the conversations we have with ourselves. In Chatter, Kross interweaves cutting-edge science with real-world case studies to explain how these inner conversations shape our work and relationships. Then he reveals the tools you need to harness your own voice so that you can be happier, healthier and more productive. Brilliantly argued and expertly researched, Chatter will give you the power to change the most important conversations you have each day- the ones you have with yourself.

Ethan Kross is one part sage, one part mensch, and one part world-class psychological scientist. When I need advice, it' s Ethan I call. * Angela Duckworth, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Grit * This book is going to fundamentally change some of the most important conversations in your life - the ones you have with yourself. Along with being a pioneering psychologist and neuroscientist, Ethan Kross is an unusually gifted writer and storyteller. He shows that instead of trying to silence your monkey mind, you can learn to educate it, motivate it, and even reason with it. * Adam Grant, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Give and Take, Originals, and Option B * I talk to myself. So do you. Yet this remarkable capacity for introspection can sometimes lead us astray. Ethan Kross shows us how to redirect our inner voices away from rumination and self-criticism, and toward reflection and self-improvement. Chatter is profound and practical - it will leave you with a fresh understanding of yourself, and new strategies to live a fuller life. * Daniel H. Pink, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Drive, To Sell is Human, and A Whole New Mind *
