Train to Change: Phase One: Self-Mastery

By J Reed Durand

"A refreshing take that differentiates this resource from other books. Supported by clear, thoughtful prose and insightful advice." - Kirkus Reviews

Change is inevitable. Mastering it is a skill-one you can train, strengthen, and rely on when life shifts faster than expected.

Career transitions. Personal setbacks. Moments of uncertainty. Each demands the same ability: adapt, stay grounded, and move forward even when the path isn't clear.

The Problem: Most people are never taught how to understand, navigate, achieve, and sustain lasting change.

The Solution: Train to Change offers a practical system for managing change in both your personal and professional life.

Durand draws on insights from leadership, psychology, philosophy, and organizational transformation, backed by 40 years of successful hands-on frontline experience.

His method trains you to become a change practitioner-someone capable of navigating and implementing change anywhere.

Not abstract theory. Not wishful thinking. The Train to Change program blends Army memoir and guide, turning real-world experience into a repeatable system for lifelong growth.

Inside, you will find practical, effective self-help modules designed to train you to:

Operate with calm and clarity under pressureBuild self-awareness and uncover blind spotsRecognize and suspend biases that distort judgmentStrengthen discipline, focus, and emotional controlDevelop resilience in constant changeClarify your values, purpose, and intentEvaluate ideas before committing time, energy, or resources

Before you can lead change anywhere, you must first master yourself.

Get trained. Practice the skill. Change.
