When You Have Everything Except Enough
For driven people — and those who love them.
This book is for men who succeeded by every measure that mattered — and sense the distance between a life that looks complete and one that feels complete.
The same wiring that produces extraordinary careers has a shadow side: pace becomes pressure, control becomes isolation, and winning doesn't satisfy the way it used to. The Alpha Trap names that pattern, traces its origins, and offers a clear path forward — not by abandoning the drive, but by redirecting it.
Drawing on nearly a hundred conversations with founders, CEOs, athletes, senators, and others who built remarkable lives and then had to reckon with what the climb had cost them, Stephen P. Hills has written a book about what strong people actually need — and what it takes to get there.
"This is a phenomenal book. Filled with insight, humor, relevant research, and bullseye anecdotes."
A penetrating look at the hidden costs of achievement, and a generous guide to the relationships and reflection that make a life whole.
Success has many fathers...and drivers. Steve Hills's insightful interviews and excellent analysis reveal what motivates, and sometimes undermines, the most successful amongst us.
This is a phenomenal book. Filled with insight, humor, relevant research, and bullseye anecdotes.
