What does ‘Success’ mean to you?
Blending history, behavioural science and a rich tapestry of interviews, Irish author Adrian Kelly explores this age-old question in a new light. Once a struggling student who languished at the bottom of his class, Adrian knows first-hand the sting of failure.
Now, three decades later, he brings his experience as a solicitor, entrepreneur and sports coach to challenge common misconceptions about the core skills vital to overcoming challenge, with examples from Napoleon to the movie and sports stars of today. He examines how even the brightest and best can lose their way when it comes to the application of those skills. Finally, in a universe of ever-increasing opportunities, this is an invitation to consider what the most important things to accomplish in your life really are – they might not be what you think.
Provocative and practical, The Success Complex creates a template for a new understanding of the pursuit of success that truly fulfils.
Adrian Kelly: ‘A pursuit, not just of sustained success, but of a success that sustains you.’
Adrian Kelly is a qualified solicitor, lecturer, and lifelong learner. He researches and writes on performance, sustainable success and well-being.
His objective is to shine a light on the great success stories that sometimes go under the radar, and bring the learnings from these to a wider audience. He wants to share a new way of understanding success by highlighting the key principles that underpin sustained success - principles anchored in ancient wisdom and on the building blocks of life itself. He believes that sustained success is within easy reach for everybody open to the journey.
His writing draws on research, the many interviews he has conducted and on his own life experience. His goal is to help people find the meaning and fulfilment that true success can provide.
