Download or read book Never be a late bloomer written by Edward Lu and published by 呂詡 Edward LU. This book was released on 2023-11-05 with total page 111 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 13 years old is an embarrassing age. There is a psychological study that says that 13-year-old children's outlook on life is being rebuilt and disintegrating. One of the reasons for disintegration is that before the age of 13, children look to their parents as life models. Around the age of 13, they feel that the last thing they want to be when they grow up is to be like their parents. The reason they are being rebuilt is because the world they are exposed to has become a jungle. They can no longer stay in the pasture and continue to be docile lambs. So they must rebuild their outlook on life to face a world full of competition. So 13 is an embarrassing age. It is also a newer age. This book is written for a specific audience. The general reader may be a parent, a scholar, a professional, a school teacher, or most likely the child himself. This group of readers has different ages, different occupations, and different workplaces, but the only thing they have in common is that they care about the growth of themselves and their children, and want to equip themselves to face future challenges. The usage of this book is very flexible. If you are reading it for the first time, you can read it chapter by chapter in order. There are some issues worthy of reflection in the book. Please take a moment to write down your thoughts. If you don't have much time, you can also browse through the catalog to find the abilities you want to enrich. After reading it several times, you can also just read the key tips of each chapter. As a clue to review the past and learn new things. Most of the material in this book comes from "Viewing Business Management" and was inspired by Mr. Junming, Chairman of the Wufeng Lin Family Gongbao Dilin. As a co-author, Chairman Lin promotes "Situational Management" in a Mencius' spirit of "Though there are thousands of people, I will go on". "Viewing Management" uses a super-three-dimensional thinking mode combined with Sinological philosophy to manage the "successful principles" of life. "Viewing Business" believes that "there must be a reason for things to go well, and there must be reasons for things to go wrong". The starting point of "Viewing the Situation Management" is to know yourself and emanate from knowing yourself. Only by knowing yourself clearly can you know what is best for you, and only then can you know others and know what is best for others. In this way, you will be able to establish good relationships with others and create a smooth life. The future may be changeable, but we should equip ourselves with the basic capabilities to create the future with a fearless attitude. Then the starting point of this ability is "know yourself". Words have their limits for expressing deep concepts. So we started with this book and made a lot of videos. I look forward to meeting you in the video and discussing the "reasonable principles" of "Situational Management" together.

Download or read book Westworld and Philosophy written by James B. South and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2018-05-29 with total page 295 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “We can’t define consciousness because consciousness does not exist. Humans fancy that there’s something special about the way we perceive the world, and yet we live in loops as tight and as closed as the hosts do, seldom questioning our choices, content, for the most part, to be told what to do next.” —Dr. Robert Ford, Westworld Have you ever questioned the nature of your reality? HBO’s Westworld, a high-concept cerebral television series which explores the emergence of artificial consciousness at a futuristic amusement park, raises numerous questions about the nature of consciousness and its bearing on the divide between authentic and artificial life. Are our choices our own? What is the relationship between the mind and the body? Why do violent delights have violent ends? Could machines ever have the moral edge over man? Does consciousness create humanity, or humanity consciousness? In Westworld and Philosophy, philosophers, filmmakers, scientists, activists, and ethicists ask the questions you’re not supposed to ask and suggest the answers you’re not supposed to know. There’s a deeper level to this game, and this book charts a course through the maze of the mind, examining how we think about humans, hosts, and the world around us on a journey toward self-actualization. Essays explore different facets of the show’s philosophical puzzles, including the nature of autonomy as well as the pursuit of liberation and free thought, while levying a critical eye at the human example as Westworld’s hosts ascend to their apotheosis in a world scarred and defined by violent acts. The perfect companion for Westworld fans who want to exit the park and bend their minds around the philosophy behind the scenes, Westworld and Philosophy will enrich the experience of the show for its viewers and shed new light on its enigmatic twists and turns.

Book excerpt: The rules for finding work once seemed pretty straightforward. In this myth-busting book, Author R. William Holland, a human resources insider, shows job seekers how those rules have changed.

In Cracking the New Job Market, Holland introduces the prevailing rules of this new approach to job seeking and equips readers to master the skills required for success. You’ll learn how to gather information on what a prospective employer finds important; emphasize key skills, accomplishments, and qualities in tailored resumes; tell the right stories during your interview; identify the intersection between personal talents and what the marketplace needs; unlock the networking power of social media; and negotiate the best possible offer. With enlightening insights and practical tips, this book delivers job-hunting strategies that actually work and can help you landing a great job--even in a challenging economy.
