This book was released on 2016-05-09 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After years of coaching writers who struggled with procrastination issues, high sensitivity to criticism, and crippling self doubt, Lauren Sapala realized that almost every one of her clients was an INFJ or INFP. Using the insights gleaned from these clients, as well as her own personal story, Sapala shows us how the experience of the intuitive writer can be radically different from the norm. INFJ writers don’t think like anyone else, and their highly creative brains take a toll on them that they rarely share with the outside world. The INFJ Writer discusses such topics as: How an INFJ writer’s physical health is tied to their creative output Why INFJ writers are more likely to fall prey to addictions When an INFJ writer should use their natural psychic ability to do their best creative work Whether looking to start writing again or to finish the novel/memoir they started so long ago, any writer with the self-awareness to identify themselves as highly sensitive and intuitive will benefit from this book that helps them to find their own magic, and to finally use it to build the creative life that actually works for them.

Book excerpt: The term “INFJ” might mean little to most people, but to anyone who identifies with this personality type these four letters represent self-discovery, self-acceptance, and a radical new understanding of what it means to be introverted, Highly Sensitive, and empathic. But although ever-growing numbers of INFJs are waking up to the power of our intuitive gifts, we continue to struggle mentally, emotionally, and spiritually in a culture that does not value intuition. Lauren Sapala explores the roadblocks that are still holding many INFJs back and tackles the most important questions for INFJs today. How can we find our purpose? Where and why do we give away our power? And how can we use our unique gifts and innate passion in order to create a better world? Only by moving beyond limiting mindsets and beliefs can INFJs move forward to fulfill our purpose as the healers of the world, and then reclaim our power and step into the role of the leaders we were always meant to be.

Download or read book Firefly Magic written by Lauren Sapala and published by Lauren Sapala. This book was released on 2018-04-30 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lauren Sapala coached Highly Sensitive Writers for years before she discovered one of the biggest obstacles holding them back in their writing careers: a rock-solid resistance to marketing. Regardless of the wealth of book marketing tools and resources available to writers and artists today, most highly creative people still feel suspicious, confused, or just plain turned off by marketing and sales. The hidden reason behind this resistance is a deeply rooted fear that marketing for writers always results in a loss of integrity for the writer. Almost all highly creative people are also Highly Sensitive People, many of which are INFJ or INFP personality types. These Highly Sensitive Writers feel any possible threat to their integrity intensely. The fear they feel around marketing takes root in limiting beliefs that shut them down before they even begin. Lauren Sapala shares stories and strategies to help Highly Sensitive Writers shift their mindset and open up to new ways to promote their work. She helps all writers realize that—due to their Highly Sensitive nature—they might just make the best salespeople of all.

Download or read book Here There and Everywhere written by Geoff Emerick and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2006-03-16 with total page 400 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An all-access, firsthand account of the life and music of one of history's most beloved bands--from an original mastering engineer at Abbey Road Geoff Emerick became an assistant engineer at the legendary Abbey Road Studios in 1962 at age fifteen, and was present as a new band called the Beatles recorded their first songs. He later worked with the Beatles as they recorded their singles “She Loves You” and “I Want to Hold Your Hand,” the songs that would propel them to international superstardom. In 1964 he would witness the transformation of this young and playful group from Liverpool into professional, polished musicians as they put to tape classic songs such as “Eight Days A Week” and “I Feel Fine.” Then, in 1966, at age nineteen, Geoff Emerick became the Beatles’ chief engineer, the man responsible for their distinctive sound as they recorded the classic album Revolver, in which they pioneered innovative recording techniques that changed the course of rock history. Emerick would also engineer the monumental Sgt. Pepper and Abbey Road albums, considered by many the greatest rock recordings of all time. In Here, There and Everywhere he reveals the creative process of the band in the studio, and describes how he achieved the sounds on their most famous songs. Emerick also brings to light the personal dynamics of the band, from the relentless (and increasingly mean-spirited) competition between Lennon and McCartney to the infighting and frustration that eventually brought a bitter end to the greatest rock band the world has ever known.

Download or read book Factfulness written by Hans Rosling and published by Flatiron Books. This book was released on 2018-04-03 with total page 353 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER “One of the most important books I’ve ever read—an indispensable guide to thinking clearly about the world.” – Bill Gates “Hans Rosling tells the story of ‘the secret silent miracle of human progress’ as only he can. But Factfulness does much more than that. It also explains why progress is so often secret and silent and teaches readers how to see it clearly.” —Melinda Gates "Factfulness by Hans Rosling, an outstanding international public health expert, is a hopeful book about the potential for human progress when we work off facts rather than our inherent biases." - Former U.S. President Barack Obama Factfulness: The stress-reducing habit of only carrying opinions for which you have strong supporting facts. When asked simple questions about global trends—what percentage of the world’s population live in poverty; why the world’s population is increasing; how many girls finish school—we systematically get the answers wrong. So wrong that a chimpanzee choosing answers at random will consistently outguess teachers, journalists, Nobel laureates, and investment bankers. In Factfulness, Professor of International Health and global TED phenomenon Hans Rosling, together with his two long-time collaborators, Anna and Ola, offers a radical new explanation of why this happens. They reveal the ten instincts that distort our perspective—from our tendency to divide the world into two camps (usually some version of us and them) to the way we consume media (where fear rules) to how we perceive progress (believing that most things are getting worse). Our problem is that we don’t know what we don’t know, and even our guesses are informed by unconscious and predictable biases. It turns out that the world, for all its imperfections, is in a much better state than we might think. That doesn’t mean there aren’t real concerns. But when we worry about everything all the time instead of embracing a worldview based on facts, we can lose our ability to focus on the things that threaten us most. Inspiring and revelatory, filled with lively anecdotes and moving stories, Factfulness is an urgent and essential book that will change the way you see the world and empower you to respond to the crises and opportunities of the future. --- “This book is my last battle in my life-long mission to fight devastating ignorance...Previously I armed myself with huge data sets, eye-opening software, an energetic learning style and a Swedish bayonet for sword-swallowing. It wasn’t enough. But I hope this book will be.” Hans Rosling, February 2017.

INFP Romance 7 Actionable Steps for Overcoming Your Weaknesses as an INFP The 10 Most Influential INFPs We Can Learn From Conclusion An excerpt from the book: INFPs, in general, are reluctant leaders. This is mainly because INFPs are carefree and laid-back people who are uncomfortable with hard guidelines and strict schedules. As an INFP, you would much rather play the supportive role and cooperative follower than an authoritative leader. You have no desire to exercise control over the people around you. This does not mean you do not have what it takes to become an effective leader. You just prefer not to be in the spotlight. That said, when you are faced with a cause you personally believe in, you have no problem taking charge. As an INFP, your leadership style can be described as passionate and encouraging. You make sure that all the members of your team are given equal opportunities to shine. You strive toward a harmonious working environment, and for that reason, you are quick to address any concerns your team members might have. Because of your intuition and sensitivity, you can sense whenever there are unspoken issues that need to be taken care of.

Book excerpt: THE LIFE-CHANGING NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • MORE THAN TWO MILLION COPIES SOLD • Now in a 10th anniversary edition featuring a new introduction and bonus 21-day challenge. “Essentialism holds the keys to solving one of the great puzzles of life: How can we do less but accomplish more?”—Adam Grant, bestselling author of Think Again Essentialism isn’t about getting more done in less time. It’s about getting only the right things done. Have you ever found yourself stretched too thin? Are you often busy but not productive? Do you feel like your time is constantly being hijacked? If you answered yes to any of these, the way out is the Way of the Essentialist. Essentialism is more than a time-management technique. It is a systematic discipline for discerning what is absolutely essential, then eliminating everything that is not, so we can make the highest possible contribution toward the things that really matter. By forcing us to apply more selective criteria for where to spend our precious time and energy, the disciplined pursuit of less empowers us to reclaim control of our own choices, instead of giving others the implicit permission to choose for us. Essentialism is not one more thing to do. It’s a whole new way of doing less, but better, in every area of our lives. Join the millions of people who have used Essentialism to change their outlook on the world.

Download or read book Infp written by Sandra Nichols and published by . This book was released on 2017-05-29 with total page 105 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If the result of the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator(R) personality inventory is the INFP, typology experts define him as the Healer, the Mediator, the Romantic, and the Advocate. The INFP is one of the rarest types, representing about one or two percent of the population. He is an idealist who focuses on needs and he is compassionate to the point of selflessness. The INFP believes that goodness is the inherent and prevailing nature of mankind. He is here to heal the wounds of the human condition with his words, his hands, or his counsel. The INFP, whose love of metaphor in unsurpassed by any type is, himself, a metaphor of the Romantic Hero. He is an ambitious advocate of human potential and a defender of truth and authenticity. He seeks meaning and life purpose with an incomparable drive. Love, beauty, innocence, and nature are the elements of truth he seeks to preserve and embody. His compassion draws him to his purpose; the problems that disturb him are his life's mission to heal. Although he is the great healer of separations, he is humble and reserved by nature. His challenge is to value his quiet worth enough to express his idealistic visions of truth in a world replete with deviations from it. The INFP who finds his healing purpose finds the way to his freedom and when he does, he makes the world a better place. The highly principled healer, however, is like a very rare and delicate flower that grows in the shade. He often feels isolated and lonely. He wilts when he is criticized and cannot bear conflict of any sort. Sadly, he is drawn to the rain and to the dark. He is often unaware of his power and importance because his reserved nature and his unique constitution tend to be undermined in an obstreperous world. The Healer must dismiss any notions of his meekness if he hopes for others to do the same. When he understands the strengths, challenges, and contradictions of his type, he learns how to manifest his ideals by expressing his truths with abundant energy and enthusiasm. He must believe that the world will enter and delight in his garden of shade when he extends the invitation. "INFP: A Flower in the Shade", is a celebration of the INFP's richness and intensity. It is about the consequences of his preferences and how he can avoid the emotional turmoil that accompanies living in the shade. It is an exploration of his individualism, his quest for truth, his compassion, and his keen conceptual awareness as well as his struggles and his contradictions. It is a discussion of the reasons for his loneliness and of ways for him to appreciate his unique gifts. Its purpose is to help INFP's who may be feeling lost and alone to know how extraordinary they truly are. It is written to assist the Healers on their life journeys, to realize their power, their tremendous influence and their contribution to the world.
