    About this ebook

    The author looks at the ‘all or nothing’ personality: one that is driven to focus on a task or area of life to the exclusion of all else. While often bringing great rewards in terms of career achievement, this approach can commonly lead to other aspects of life being adversely affected. It’s also one of the main causes of burn-out. The author explores how this personality type can develop and, more importantly, how balance can be restored, resulting in a more meaningful and rewarding life.

    Mike McKinney is a registered clinical psychologist with over 20 years of experience. He has worked in both public (hospital-based) and private practice settings, and over the years has become increasingly intrigued by the potential for an individual’s personality style to enhance or undermine decisions and behaviours in relation to achievement. Mike is married to a psychologist and together they have two teenage boys. His interests include martial arts and classic Japanese motorcycles. Mike lives with his family in Christchurch, New Zealand.
