Download or read book Keep Calm and Parent On written by Emma Jenner and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2014-07-15 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From a modern-day Mary Poppins and the former star of TLC’s Take Home Nanny comes a holistic and guilt-free approach to parenting children ages seven and under. Emma Jenner lives, teaches, and nannies by this philosophy: if parents are in control, they can enjoy their children more. And what could be more enjoyable than well- behaved, respectful, healthy, thriving kids? Keep Calm and Parent On effectively places parenting expert Emma Jenner on your shoulder, helping you see your child’s behavior from an objective standpoint that puts you firmly in charge. Each chapter opens with a checklist of questions to ask yourself when you run into a specific problem, whether it’s sleeping, nutrition, communication, manners, consequences, or self-esteem. Jenner then breaks down each checklist, explaining how bad behavior is really just a habit that needs to be corrected. By connecting the dots in all areas of your child’s life, you can understand why he or she is acting out—and how to fix it. For example, the best discipline techniques in the world won’t work if a child is sleep-deprived, and a child will not demonstrate good manners if communication is faulty and he doesn’t understand what’s expected of him. Each chapter also features handy sidebars, as well as instructive and memorable quizzes. A strong proponent of raising our expectations, Jenner shows how parents can do more by doing less for their children. With an interactive format and straightforward solutions, this invaluable guide is designed to give parents bite-size takeaways they can use immediately with their children. Jenner’s blend of British and American parenting styles is more than advice; it is proof that all children are capable of behaving—and that you have the keys to unlocking their potential.

Keep Calm and Log On is a survival handbook that will help you achieve online mindfulness and overcome online helplessness—the feeling that tech is out of your control—with tips for handling cybersecurity, creepy ads, untrustworthy information, and much more. Taking a cue from the famous World War II morale-boosting slogan (“Keep Calm and Carry On”), Gus Andrews shows us how to adapt the techniques our ancestors used to survive hard times, so we can live our best lives online. She explains why media and technology stress us out, and offers empowering tools for coping. Mindfulness practices can help us stay calm and conserve our attention purposefully. Andrews shares the secret of understanding our own opinions'' “family trees” in order to identify misleading “fake news.” She provides tools for unplugging occasionally, overcoming feelings that we are “bad at technology,” and taking charge of our security and privacy. Andrews explains how social media algorithms keep us from information we need and why “creepy ads” seem to follow us online. Most importantly, she urges us to work to rebuild the trust in our communities that the internet has broken.

Download or read book Game of Mind Manipulation written by Instafo and published by Instafo. This book was released on 2019-07-25 with total page 70 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Win and Beat Manipulators at Their Own Games A game can be defined as “an activity that has rules for winning and losing.” Contrarily, another definition of it is “to use those rules of an activity to get what you want, in a way that is dishonest.” Whether you want to admit it, you are already playing a game called “life,” and in it there are those who live by the latter definition - willing to cheat the game via manipulation. What is manipulation? It’s the controlling of an individual through misleading means in order to get something that these manipulators want, whether money, power, relationship, or sex. Many people are victims of others’ manipulative behaviors on a regular basis without realizing it, including you. Think about those people from your life ranging from families and friends to acquaintances and strangers you’ve met on the street. Were there ever times when you had a gut-wrenching feeling in your stomach that something was wrong, and it turned out to be they were manipulating you? How did it make you feel? Confused? Angry? Miserable? Nobody likes being taken advantage of, but unfortunately it’s a part of human nature throughout history to want to assert control over others as survival of the fittest. Being ignorant to that will only continue to make you a victim. If you only knew the rules of the game and how to play it, you could have prevented the manipulation. But now you can do something about it by fighting back and beating the manipulator at their own mind games with “Game of Mind Manipulation.” By taking a page out of their playbook, you’ll be guided on the following: * Entrance inside the mind of master manipulator * Patterns for predicting manipulator’s next move * Subtle manipulations going on behind the scene * Traits shared among most common manipulators * Tactics to stop manipulator dead right in the track * In-depth look into the most pervasive mind games * Expert solutions for specific manipulative behaviors * And much more! Who said the game of life was going to be easy? While it may not always be ideal due to all the manipulative characters out there, it certainly can be beaten and won once you know all the right signs to look for and have the right strategies to maneuver. Either you play it to win it, or get played by it to lose it. The choice is yours. Make your first move now, and checkmate!

Download or read book Varieties of the Gaming Experience written by Robert Perinbanayagam and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-09-08 with total page 178 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The games that human societies devised over the centuries can be considered one of the most comprehensive and fertile symbolic systems ever created by human ingenuity. In all societies, members feel compelled to interact and communicate with each other as much as possible. As linguistic creatures, humans use language to establish social and interpersonal contacts. Games are a device to enable such connections. Robert Perinbanayagam examines how players value games. He assesses games as systems that embody metaphysics and pragmatic action. He then examines various religious ideas and how participants reference respective approaches to game playing. Perinbanayagam argues that games are forms of activity in which the human agent as an actor engages with others in various interactional situations. Such engagement creates dramas in which agents assume identities, give play to emotions and enrich their selves. He also examines the issue of game writing, particularly how selected writers have used game structures as narrative devices in their work.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lou Prescott loves college life. The friends, the parties, the hot guys...not to mention her undisputed position as the reigning queen of the business school. But when her dad becomes head coach of the Mountain State Mustangs in the wake of a scandal, it seems like he expects to coach her life too. And keep her the same little girl she was when her mother died. Lou is determined she's not going to let her dad cramp her style. Only now, none of the football players are brave enough to date Coach’s daughter ... not even West Sawyer, the sexy-as-hell first string quarterback. West Sawyer never saw himself as starting QB material—and neither did anyone else. Last year, he was content to ride the bench and collect his scholarship. After all the trouble in high school, he owed that much to his mother. But ever since the rape scandal that tore apart MSU’s championship team, he’s been thrust into the spotlight, and all that comes with it--women, parties, and a crippling pressure that’s killing his game. He’s been able to resist his old bad habits, but it hasn’t been easy. Coach Prescott is the only one who believes in him, but what would Coach do if he knew the woman who tempts West most … is Lou? Can West and Lou overcome their demons to find lasting love? Or will their stubborn personalities keep them apart.
