Burn out is real. And it is more real for people to strive everyday to better themselves and set goals that may seem impossible for many. And as fatigue sets in, people tend to fall behind and everything seems like a chore and an impossible task. The natural fallout of this condition is falling back on personal coaches and therapist. Our failure to stay motivated is easily construed as lack of motivation and temporary depression. However, not all of it is in the mind. In Unstoppable book, Ben Angel proposes a more encompassing solution to your productive slump and offers a plan to bounce back from the low.

Unstoppable Book Review
Loss of direction, inability to focus and set goals, and falling short of putting the amount of work needed to reach that goal can spell doom for entrepreneurs who need to be on the top of their game to survive in this competitive world. It isn’t any different from other professional who need to work on different fronts to make a mark in their field.
But while most people turn to motivational speakers, books, personal coaches and in extreme cases therapists, not everything can be solved at the psychological level. In Unstoppable, Ben Angel explains how medical science often looks at thing with a myopic vision and attempts to do a patch up job by addressing symptoms rather looking at the root cause.
He then goes on to argue that pur productivity is dependent on more things than just will power and motivation. Will power and motivation are important, but these need to be supplemented with nutrient rich fuel that can keep you firing all cylinders. Without the fuel, it is impossible to just will your body to perform at peak levels. The answer to this is keeping your fuel reserves up with various vitamins and nutrients to address the physiological aspect of the burnout.
Later on he suggests use of new technology to overcome phobias and fears that may have crept in over the years. These inhibitions play an important part in stopping you from performing at the peak levels. He gives you wearable devices and apps that can lower your stress and help your mind and body to regulate the resources it has and point them in the right direction instead of wasting them on dealing with stress.
In the end, Unstoppable book helps you build your personalized plan that addresses your physiological and mental need to define right goals that are achievable and practical. By addressing each of these contributors, the author ensures that your mind and body work together and runs like a well-oiled machine that performs at its peak.
