According to Gretchen Rubin, by answering one question - how do I respond to expectations? - we can gain self knowledge that can help us make better decisions, meet deadlines, reduce stress, and engage more effectively with others. Gretchen believes that people fit into four tendencies - upholders, questioners, obligers, and rebels - that our tendency shapes every aspect of our behavior, and when we unlock this information, we can better understand ourselves and those around us. She is a member of Oprah’s SuperSoul 100 and has appeared on the Today Show, The Talk, and OWN. Gretchen is the author of Better Than Before, The Happiness Project, Happier at Home, and The Four Tendencies: The Indispensable Personality Profiles That Reveal How to Make Your Life Better (and Other People’s Lives Better, Too).
