Download or read book Flux written by April Rinne and published by Berrett-Koehler Publishers. This book was released on 2021-08-24 with total page 181 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Discover eight powerful mindset shifts that enable leaders and seekers of all ages to thrive in a time of unprecedented change and uncertainty. Being adaptable and flexible have always been hallmarks of effective leadership and a fulfilling life. But in a world of so much—and faster-paced—change, and an ever-faster pace of change, flexibility and resilience can be stretched to their breaking points. The quest becomes how to find calm and lasting meaning in the midst of enduring chaos. A world in flux calls for a new mindset, one that treats constant change and uncertainty as a feature, not a bug. Flux helps readers open this mindset—a flux mindset—and develop eight “flux superpowers” that flip conventional ideas about leadership, success, and well-being on their heads. They empower people to see change in new ways, craft new responses, and ultimately reshape their relationship to change from the inside out. April Rinne defines these eight flux superpowers: • Run slower. • See what's invisible. • Get lost. • Start with trust. • Know your “enough.” • Create your portfolio career. • Be all the more human (and serve other humans). • Let go of the future. Whether readers are sizing up their career, reassessing their values, designing a product, building an organization, trying to inspire their colleagues, or simply showing up more fully in the world, enjoying a flux mindset and activating their flux superpowers will keep readers grounded even when the ground is too often shifting beneath them.

Download or read book Spiritual Success written by Gopika Kapoor and published by Hay House, Inc. This book was released on 2014-09-01 with total page 169 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The word success is open to various interpretations, often equated with power and control, financial abundance, having the right sort of friends, fraternizing with the swish set and living the ‘high life.’ Although manifestations of success are many, they all have one common factor – the overwhelming presence of the ego. Many people will tell you that to succeed you need to have a healthy ego, but what if success exists just for itself? What if you can be successful just for yourself? We are both ‘successful’ professionals, excelling and making a name for ourselves in our individual fields. And yet, if you were to ask us what we consider our greatest successes, our answers, individually and collectively, would be non-material and intangible things that enrich our lives and make them successful. Drawing a page (actually, make that an entire chapter!) from our own lives, we sought to re-examine the idea of success, and analyze how it has changed for us. Thus, Spiritual Success hopes to share this vision with you, and inspire you to develop your own idea of success and what it means to be successful. Our endeavour is to enable you to define success as a holistic concept covering not just material success, but also intellectual growth; personal enrichment; development of a compassionate view of serving the society and community you live in; and the evolution of your own chosen spiritual practise that simultaneously invigorates and calms you.

Download or read book Expectation Hangover written by Christine Hassler and published by New World Library. This book was released on 2016-01-07 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When our expectations are met and things go according to plan, we feel a sense of accomplishment; we feel safe, in control, and on track. But when life does not live up to our expectations, we end up with an Expectation Hangover. This particular brand of disappointment is profoundly uncomfortable and can cost us valuable time and energy if not treated and leveraged effectively. Christine Hassler has broken down the complex and overwhelming experience of recovering from disappointment into a step-by-step treatment plan. This book reveals the formula for how to process Expectation Hangovers on the emotional, mental, physical, and spiritual levels to immediately ease suffering. Instead of wallowing in regret, self-recrimination, or anger, we can see these experiences as catalysts for profound transformation and doorways that open to possibility. Often it is only when life throws us a curveball (or several) that we look in a different direction and make room for the kinds of unexpected things that lead more directly to a life we love. By the time you finish this book, you’ll understand why your Expectation Hangover happened and have your own treatment plan — a clear course of action to pursue your goals while preventing future disappointment.
Download or read book Emergent Strategy written by adrienne maree brown and published by AK Press. This book was released on 2017-03-20 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the tradition of Octavia Butler, here is radical self-help, society-help, and planet-help to shape the futures we want. Change is constant. The world, our bodies, and our minds are in a constant state of flux. They are a stream of ever-mutating, emergent patterns. Rather than steel ourselves against such change, Emergent Strategy teaches us to map and assess the swirling structures and to read them as they happen, all the better to shape that which ultimately shapes us, personally and politically. A resolutely materialist spirituality based equally on science and science fiction: a wild feminist and afro-futurist ride! adrienne maree brown, co-editor of Octavia’s Brood: Science Fiction from Social Justice Movements, is a social justice facilitator, healer, and doula living in Detroit.
Download or read book I Wanted to Say I Love You written by Isalou Regen and published by Rabsel Editions. This book was released on 2019-09-03 with total page 113 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: He sent her text messages bursting with red heart emojis that said, “ I love you,” from morning to night. Then he left her. There' s a song that says, “ Everybody plays the fool.” After multiple painful breakups, we may start asking ourselves in earnest if the singer isn' t right. How many hearts are hurting at this moment on the planet? Is it just the nature of love to hurt, or are we mistaken about what love truly is? What is the truth of love? How can we improve our daily experience of this intense and mysterious feeling in a way that is fulfilling and lasting? This is the story of a self-rediscovery following a romantic breakup, taking place across a series of interviews on philosophy and wisdom between a broken-hearted girl-next-door, Isalou Regen, and a great Tibetan spiritual master with a joyful and open heart, Sabchu Rinpoche. Based on questions that we all ask ourselves and answers both simple and surprising, this book offers a twofold challenge: to see what truly occurs between two people who say, “ I love you,” and to consider a new way of loving. This is a book about learning to love as many beings as possible in order to better love a single one— and discovering that perhaps compassion is the true salvation of our broken hearts. Isalou Regen is a French author, artist, and commentator. Born and raised in Nepal, Sabchu Rinpoche is a Tibetan Buddhist teacher of the new generation.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1998, God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit called Allyson Michael D’Espyne to preach the Word. In obedience, he humbly accepted this calling. While walking with the good Lord on this epic journey, Allyson was surprised to find everything taken from him, including his Cadillac and his fancy clothes. God placed on him a spirit of torment, and Allyson felt as one wandering in the wilderness. This yoke of an ordeal stayed with Allyson for eleven years. Through that time, Jesus guided him across America, showing him all the things that mattered most to His Holy Father. One day in the spring of 2010, Jesus removed the spirit of torment and gave Allyson peace. Since then, Allyson’s life has changed from one of wandering to one of vivid, clear purpose in bringing the world to full knowledge of the Lord. Throughout all his years of trials and tribulations, Jesus renewed Allyson’s strength and allowed him to bear witness to the pitfalls of humanity. Today, he answers questions from people of all walks of life through the words of the risen Savior.
