Download or read book Bad Beat Therapy written by Robert Samuels and published by . This book was released on 2018-11-13 with total page 76 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The main goal of this book is to help poker players deal with tilt, variance, leaks, risk, table image, focus, boredom, tells, learning, and bankroll management. All of these psychological aspects of the game can be improved, but they require radical self-honesty. Not only is it necessary for you to have an accurate assessment of your strengths and weaknesses, but you must learn how to deal with emotions and learn how to learn.The reason why I call this method "bad beat therapy" is that tough losses offer a great insight into how people think about themselves and the game; however, due to the high level of negative emotions during bad beats, most people are unable to process important information, and so they are unable to improve. The lessons and theories that I will be presenting will not only improve your poker playing, but they also can lead to a better life away from the table. What makes this approach unique is that I provide a more realistic and deep understanding of human psychology compared to some other poker guides. Much of this knowledge comes from the field of psychoanalysis, which is often highly misunderstood, yet I argue that the techniques discovered by Freud offer the best opportunity to deal with emotions and thoughts.

Download or read book Inside the Poker Mind written by John Feeney (Ph. D.) and published by Two Plus Two Publishing LLC. This book was released on 2000 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Poker is a game of many skills and to become an expert poker player you need to master them all. They include selecting hands, playing position, projecting the proper image, and reading hands. However, many players who have mastered most of these skills still do poorly--at best they are small winners at lower limits. When they step up in limit and challenge the better players, they almost always fail. You see, having the skills is one thing, putting them all together is another. As the text will show, winning poker requires a lot of thinking as well as a thorough and systematic approach to the game, and that is what this book is about.

All the contributors share the enthusiasm and respect of editors Kaduson and Schaefer for the special value of play therapy in reaching and healing young patients. Together, they have created an eclectic, accessible, and comprehensive resource for students and professionals that will also support parents seeking to open new lines of communication with their children.

Download or read book Motivating Clients in Therapy written by Richard L. Rappaport and published by Routledge. This book was released on 1997-04-03 with total page 313 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Clients who come to psychotherapy unmotivated, or who become discouraged as treatment progresses, pose a singular challenge to practitioners. Despite the central importance of motivation for the therapeutic healing process, little has been written that addresses this issue. Motivating Clients in Therapy questions the widely accepted assumption of the adequately motivated client. Richard Rappaport presents a four-phased model of motivation that emphasizes the fear of loss of what is known and familiar as the central inhibitor to personal growth. The motivation to love oneself and others must by catalyzed by an active psychotherapy relationship. Rappaport offers therapists a practical and theoretical guide to increase treatment effectiveness with a wide variety of clients.
Download or read book Unworthy Chosen and Forgiven written by Michael Gilcreast and published by Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2022-03-16 with total page 627 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I thought long and hard before I even imagined to write any book, but somehow people just kept telling me to write a book out of the blue. I started to write, and nothing came of it for over ten years. I have only made it to page 44 of my manuscript. My biggest question, which led to my real motivation to write, was "How can different people from different states I visited kept telling me the same thing? Could they all be wrong?" It was in March 2020, everything was shut down, I was in attendance at the AFFI mini-convention in Maryland, and it was closed down by the governor. Therefore, from all points in my life, God made sure that I would write. I was out of excuses and I just encouraged myself to write the movie-like book of my life. I have done many one-on-one, premarital, marriage pastoral feedback sessions, inside and outside the church. I only came to find out in some way, shape, or form that people have problems of sorts that were similar to my own. I think of myself as an unorthodox writer and now pastor/author that loves the truth with the desire to be a help for people. I now see a new parallel that was within me all along because my first passion was to become a doctor, so I could help people. More than half of my life have either been in the Air Force or working for the Department of Defense at the Pentagon in some type of full-time capacity. I even survived the war act of September 11 (911)! Yet I have a story to tell, starting from a dysfunctional family to chasing women, becoming a womanizer, stories of infidelity, unemployment, lying, stealing, divorce, bad credit, bankruptcy, gambling, and even several attempts to commit suicide! If the truth be told, I never thought that I would live past the age of thirty-five! While I thought that I was unworthy, I found out that God had chosen me to live again and to tell my story and to be the pastor that I am today! I was truly a lost soul! On this same path of my life, I have found redemption and a second chance to experience true and unconditional love in the form of Melody. A love that could have only been birthed by God's grace! Truly, my soul loves Jesus!

Download or read book A Matter of Death and Life written by Irvin D. Yalom and published by Stanford University Press. This book was released on 2021-03-02 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A year-long journey by the renowned psychiatrist and his writer wife after her terminal diagnosis, as they reflect on how to love and live without regret. Internationally acclaimed psychiatrist and author Irvin Yalom devoted his career to counseling those suffering from anxiety and grief. But never had he faced the need to counsel himself until his wife, esteemed feminist author Marilyn Yalom, was diagnosed with cancer. In A Matter of Death and Life, Marilyn and Irv share how they took on profound new struggles: Marilyn to die a good death, Irv to live on without her. In alternating accounts of their last months together and Irv's first months alone, they offer us a rare window into facing mortality and coping with the loss of one's beloved. The Yaloms had numerous blessings—a loving family, a Palo Alto home under a magnificent valley oak, a large circle of friends, avid readers around the world, and a long, fulfilling marriage—but they faced death as we all do. With the wisdom of those who have thought deeply, and the familiar warmth of teenage sweethearts who've grown up together, they investigate universal questions of intimacy, love, and grief. Informed by two lifetimes of experience, A Matter of Death and Life is an openhearted offering to anyone seeking support, solace, and a meaningful life.

Book excerpt: For more than forty years, Tony March generously donated most of his fortune and countless hours to help those in need, but no one ever knew—until now. To the public, he was the founder of one of the most successful minority-owned businesses in the country, a champion for minority business owners, and a respected community leader entrusted to manage $1 billion in state funds. Privately, however, Tony indulged his true passion: getting his hands dirty serving the homeless community. In shocking detail, Paying It Backward presents Tony’s incredible journey from poverty, abuse, racism, and depression in a Daytona Beach ghetto to the highest level of business success and a life filled with purpose. More importantly, Tony shows how anyone—no matter who they are or where they come from—can improve their lives, conquer any hardship, and develop a heart for serving others. When you reach the top of the mountain, Tony says, you can either sit at the peak or reach back down and help others climb. In Paying It Backward, Tony reflects on his struggles on the way up—and the joy he found by reaching back down.
