Publisher's summary
End Pain.
Foster Personal and Professional Growth.
Live Better.
While endings are a natural part of business and life, we often experience them with a sense of hesitation, sadness, resignation, or regret. But consultant, psychologist, and best-selling author Dr. Henry Cloud sees endings differently. He argues that our personal and professional lives can only improve to the degree that we can see endings as a necessary and strategic step to something better. If we cannot see endings in a positive light and execute them well, he asserts, the "better" will never come, either in business growth or our personal lives.
In this insightful and deeply empathetic book, Dr. Cloud demonstrates that, when executed well, "necessary endings" allow us to proactively correct the bad and the broken in our lives in order to make room for the professional and personal growth we seek. However, when endings are avoided or handled poorly - as is too often the case - good opportunities may be lost, and misery repeated.
Drawing on years of experience as an executive coach and a psychologist, Dr. Cloud offers a mixture of advice and case studies to help listeners:
- Know when to have realistic hope and when to execute a necessary ending in a business or with an individual
- Identify which employees, projects, activities, and relationships are worth nurturing and which are not
- Overcome people's resistance to change and create change that works
- Create urgency and an action plan for what's important
- Stop wasting resources needed for the things that really matter
Knowing when and how to let go when something, or someone, isn't working - a personal relationship, a job, or a business venture - is essential for happiness and success. Necessary Endings gives listeners the tools they need to say good-bye and move on.

Story
Most of us live with the stubborn idea that we'll always have tomorrow to do our most important and valuable work. We fill our days with frantic activity, bouncing from task to task, scrambling to make deadlines and chase the next promotion. But by the end of each day we're often left asking ourselves "did the work I do today really matter?" We feel the ticking of the clock, but we're stuck in first gear, unsure of the path forward and without a road map to guide us.

Starting in 1997, Bob Chapman and Barry-Wehmiller pioneered a dramatically different approach to leadership that creates off-the-charts morale, loyalty, creativity, and business performance. The company utterly rejects the idea that employees are simply functions to be moved around, "managed" with carrots and sticks, or discarded at will. Instead Barry-Wehmiller manifests the reality that every single person matters, just like in a family. That's not a cliché on a mission statement; it's the bedrock of the company's success.

Anthony Iannarino never set out to become a salesman. He fell into his profession by accident, and now has turned his focus to a question that's been debated for at least a century: Why are a small number of salespeople in any field hugely successful, while the rest are stuck with mediocre results at best? Since then, and for over 25 years, he has read hundreds of books, tested countless strategies, and interviewed dozens of the best salespeople to figure out what sets the extraordinary ones apart from the rest.

They actually have vastly different styles and backgrounds. Yet despite their differences, great managers share one common trait: They don’t hesitate to break virtually every rule held sacred by conventional wisdom. They don’t believe that, with enough training, a person can achieve anything he sets his mind to. They don’t try to help people overcome their weaknesses. And, yes, they even play favorites. In this longtime management bestseller, Gallup presents the remarkable findings of its massive in-depth study of great managers.

Most people who want to get better—at hitting golf shots, negotiating with clients, delivering presentations, or any other field of endeavor—seek out new information. They read a book, take a class, hire an expert tutor. But as Alan Fine has learned from many years of coaching athletes and businesspeople, this “outside-in” approach often doesn’t produce the results people want. More information becomes a distraction rather than a solution, and high performance remains elusive.

Ending is a good beginning
I would recommend this to anyone who is interested in growing or becoming unstuck in an area of life. I gave it 5 stars because I’ve found it worth listening to at least twice. Some of the things I needed to end were attitudes towards myself and I gained a better understanding of some of my behaviors.

I know but it's Hard!
Dr. Cloud has done it again! He has made the case for doing what I know I should be doing and has done so in a way that makes sense and expresses all the advantages of letting go of what doesn't work.
In my personal and professional life, I clearly see areas where necessary endings should be applied and I see why I haven't. I lacked courage. So that is my next growth opportunity. Develop the courage muscle and do what needs to be done.
Thanks, Dr. Cloud for sharing your amazing talent in career and life coaching. This book has been a Blessing!

This book offers variety practical concepts for necessary endings. Really enjoyed learning about how to mine six reality. Felt like the middle of the book with me talking about pruning went on to long. That should've been necessary. LOL. But all in all I rate this book a four star for all the practical concepts that you will learn throughout the book.

Not necessary...Essential!
I found this book to be well written and easy listening, until I found myself in mental and emotional surgery. This book is an essential read for effective necessary endings!

Just needed.
Everyone in life is going to have to take the step to make necessary endings and this book normalizes it. It gives you the permission we never needed but act as if we did.
It’s just a must read annually to be reminded to let it go. Biblically sound.

This book is not just for business.
Henry does an amazing job of relating the principle of necessary endings to every aspect of life. We go through endings regularly in every area of life. If you have a negative view of endings read this book. No matter what your view of endings even if you have no specific view of endings this book will teach you how to end well. Good endings make room for new beginnings.
