The Telos Method

Turn intention into practice.

Nine practical exercises for turning intention into action.

You know the call needs making, the important work needs starting or the useful routine needs another chance. Yet when the moment arrives, something gets in the way. The Telos Method begins with that familiar gap between knowing and doing.

The Telos Method brings together nine connected exercises to help you examine the thoughts, feelings and patterns surrounding an intended action. You clarify why it matters, work with the friction that makes it difficult and turn a broad intention into a manageable next step.

Apply the method to one behaviour that matters to you: following up a customer, studying, writing, completing administration, walking or returning to a personal goal. Work through it at your own pace, try the exercises and use what happens to refine your approach.

The aim is a practice you can return to, learn from and adjust as life changes.

The Weight Loss Habit

Say Goodbye to Emotional Eating & Stop Obsessing About Food

Published in 2020, The Weight Loss Habit explores a more specific question: why can knowing what healthier eating involves still be so difficult to put into practice?

This earlier book applies Telos ideas to the habits, thoughts and emotional patterns surrounding food. It is for readers who want to reflect on their everyday behaviour and understand what makes a healthier routine difficult to maintain.

Choose this book for its focused health application, or The Telos Method for the broader approach to follow-through at work and in everyday life.
