They find themselves alone and unable to connect. Some people are more fortunate.

Download or read book Living in Yes written by Rebecca Merrill and published by Dog Ear Publishing. This book was released on 2010-07 with total page 174 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Life has a way of sneaking up on all of us, at some point making us wonder what we're doing and why. Living in Yes gently guides the reader through a self-examination to determine what really matters: the commitments, relationships, and other elements that allow each of our lives to be truly rewarding." Michael Rosenberg, MD, MPH CEO Health Decisions "When it came to getting clarity on my purpose I found Rebecca's book to be a true compass for setting my path." Bob Johnson Founder Leadersearch Inc. "Rebecca Merrill's book, Living in Yes, provides a usable format to incorporate self awareness into decision-making. Sometimes gently, sometimes forcefully, she took me through the steps to ensure that my choices lead me to a life that matches my value system. Rebecca's inspiring personal stories, intellectual depth, and creativity emboldened me to do the hard work necessary for meaningful growth." Leesa Sluder President Triple Bottom Line Consulting, LLC Did anyone ever teach you how to make good decisions? Not how to ask for advice from an expert but how to make important personal decisions that an expert can't answer for you. If you're like many people, you are still paying the price for at least one bad personal decision you've made, a decision that you may even have felt uneasy about when you made it. In Living in Yes the author candidly blends personal stories from her own life with teaching vignettes about fictionalized characters who have learned to apply the tools that she uses as an executive coach to help her clients improve their decision-making capabilities. Topics such as energy, attraction, and serenity are all touched upon as she argues persuasively that to live in yes, you have to say no...and in a surprise twist, if the answer is maybe, the answer is no. Senior executives from small to mid-size entrepreneurial companies engage Rebecca Merrill to help them enhance their personal and professional lives using an in-depth understanding of personality styles and how they profoundly affect interpersonal relationships and leadership performance. By drawing upon her own experiences and unique personality style she authentically embodies what she teaches and in this way brings theory to life. Rebecca earned a bachelor's degree with a double major in Psychology and Religion and graduated magna cum laude with special honors in Religion from Wellesley College in 1985. She received a master's degree in Education from Harvard in 1989 and a second master's degree in Clinical Social Work from Smith in 1993, followed by clinical training at Duke University. Rebecca lives and works with her husband and two dogs in Durham, North Carolina."

Download or read book Yes to Life written by Viktor E. Frankl and published by Beacon Press. This book was released on 2020-03-23 with total page 138 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Find hope even in these dark times with this rediscovered masterpiece, a companion to his international bestseller Man’s Search for Meaning. Eleven months after he was liberated from the Nazi concentration camps, Viktor E. Frankl held a series of public lectures in Vienna. The psychiatrist, who would soon become world famous, explained his central thoughts on meaning, resilience, and the importance of embracing life even in the face of great adversity. Published here for the very first time in English, Frankl’s words resonate as strongly today—as the world faces a coronavirus pandemic, social isolation, and great economic uncertainty—as they did in 1946. He offers an insightful exploration of the maxim “Live as if you were living for the second time,” and he unfolds his basic conviction that every crisis contains opportunity. Despite the unspeakable horrors of the camps, Frankl learned from the strength of his fellow inmates that it is always possible to “say yes to life”—a profound and timeless lesson for us all.

Download or read book Yes to the City written by Max Holleran and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2022-07-05 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A fascinating account of the growing "Yes in My Backyard" urban movement The exorbitant costs of urban housing and the widening gap in income inequality are fueling a combative new movement in cities around the world. A growing number of influential activists aren’t waiting for new public housing to be built. Instead, they’re calling for more construction and denser cities in order to increase affordability. Yes to the City offers an in-depth look at the “Yes in My Backyard” (YIMBY) movement. From its origins in San Francisco to its current cadre of activists pushing for new apartment towers in places like Boulder, Austin, and London, Max Holleran explores how urban density, once maligned for its association with overpopulated slums, has become a rallying cry for millennial activists locked out of housing markets and unable to pay high rents. Holleran provides a detailed account of YIMBY activists campaigning for construction, new zoning rules, better public transit, and even candidates for local and state office. YIMBY groups draw together an unlikely coalition, from developers and real estate agents to environmentalists, and Holleran looks at the increasingly contentious battles between market-driven pragmatists and rent-control idealists. Arguing that advocates for more housing must carefully weigh their demands for supply with the continuing damage of gentrification, he shows that these individuals see high-density urbanism and walkable urban spaces as progressive statements about the kind of society they would like to create. Chronicling a major shift in housing activism during the past twenty years, Yes to the City considers how one movement has reframed conversations about urban growth.
