Only two options? Look again.
Gain a new perspective on tough challenges by getting curious and looking beyond the obvious. When life seems to offer only two unappealing options, leverage the Breakthrough Manifesto principles to create a different approach.
There are lots of different challenges in our lives where you might feel that you just have very limited options and the options that you do see are not anything that you want. And the approach that we ultimately took was really about creating a third option, rejecting both of those status quo options, staying in an unhappy marriage or getting a traditional divorce.
