Train to Change: Phase One: Self-Mastery - Paperback

by J. Reed Durand (Author)

"A refreshing take that differentiates this resource from other books. Supported by clear, thoughtful prose and insightful advice." - Kirkus Reviews

Change is inevitable. Mastering it is a skill-one you can train, strengthen, and rely on when life shifts faster than expected.

Career transitions. Personal setbacks. Moments of uncertainty. Each demands the same ability: adapt, stay grounded, and move forward even when the path isn't clear.

The Problem: Most people are never taught how to understand, navigate, achieve, and sustain lasting change.

The Solution: Train to Change offers a practical system for managing change in both your personal and professional life.

Durand draws on insights from leadership, psychology, philosophy, and organizational transformation, backed by 40 years of successful hands-on frontline experience.

His method trains you to become a change practitioner-someone capable of navigating and implementing change anywhere.

Not abstract theory. Not wishful thinking. The Train to Change program blends Army memoir and guide, turning real-world experience into a repeatable system for lifelong growth.

Inside, you will find practical, effective self-help modules designed to train you to:

• Operate with calm and clarity under pressure
• Build self-awareness and uncover blind spots
• Recognize and suspend biases that distort judgment
• Strengthen discipline, focus, and emotional control
• Develop resilience in constant change
• Clarify your values, purpose, and intent
• Evaluate ideas before committing time, energy, or resources

Before you can lead change anywhere, you must first master yourself.

Get trained. Practice the skill. Change.
