A Modern Parable About Overcoming Negativity

Tell Me Somethin' Good! is a modern parable that shares a philosophy that has shaped organizations and individuals for nearly three decades. The parable tells the story of Aaron King, an energetic call center manager who most people believe has it all together. In the hurried halls of Halifax, a nationwide call center company with offices scattered across the United States, he is the calm in the storm of stressed employees, demanding customers, and shifting priorities. Lately, something has changed. Recent personal challenges have taken their toll, and without realizing it, Aaron has fallen into a pattern of constant complaining and excessive pessimism. His negativity has crept into every corner of his life, and the man who once brought energy to everything around him can barely recognize himself.

A longtime friend and colleague knows Aaron's struggles and is about to introduce him to someone who will help him rediscover the good in his life. Her name is Michelle Chase, a speaker and consultant who specializes in workplace culture. Through a series of insightful conversations, she shares a simple yet effective framework for overcoming negativity: a SIMPLE model that includes six lessons and twelve choices.

 

At the core, the message of Tell Me Somethin' Good! is that negativity isn't something that happens to you. Negativity is a choice we make when we constantly complain about our situation and become excessively pessimistic about our future. And if we can choose to be negative, we can choose something better. This book charts Aaron's journey as he faces the reality that his negativity is a habit he has developed—and one he can change.

At the conclusion of the parable, an application section breaks down the SIMPLE framework. This section provides readers with two actionable choices for each element, totaling twelve pathways to put the book's lessons into practice immediately.

 

Get ready for a real-world story of one man’s journey back to a more positive and enjoyable life.

"Some people have the curse of making the simple complicated. Clint Swindall has the gift of making the complicated simple. Put the twelve choices in Tell Me Somethin' Good! into practice, and your negative thoughts and environment are about to be turned upside down.
