Download or read book Redefining Success in America written by Michael Kaufman and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2019-06-07 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Work hard in school, graduate from a top college, establish a high-paying professional career, enjoy the long-lasting reward of happiness. This is the American Dream—and yet basic questions at the heart of this competitive journey remain unanswered. Does competitive success, even rarified entry into the Ivy League and the top one percent of earners in America, deliver on its promise? Does realizing the American Dream deliver a good life? In Redefining Success in America, psychologist and human development scholar Michael Kaufman develops a fundamentally new understanding of how elite undergraduate educations and careers play out in lives, and of what shapes happiness among the prizewinners in America. In so doing, he exposes the myth at the heart of the American Dream. Returning to the legendary Harvard Student Study of undergraduates from the 1960s and interviewing participants almost fifty years later, Kaufman shows that formative experiences in family, school, and community largely shape a future adult’s worldview and well-being by late adolescence, and that fundamental change in adulthood, when it occurs, is shaped by adult family experiences, not by ever-greater competitive success. Published research on general samples shows that these patterns, and the book’s findings generally, are broadly applicable to demographically varied populations in the United States. Leveraging biography-length clinical interviews and quantitative evidence unmatched even by earlier landmark studies of human development, Redefining Success in America redefines the conversation about the nature and origins of happiness, and about how adults develop. This longitudinal study pioneers a new paradigm in happiness research, developmental science, and personality psychology that will appeal to scholars and students in the social sciences, psychotherapy professionals, and serious readers navigating the competitive journey.

Download or read book Dream Hoarders written by Richard V. Reeves and published by Brookings Institution Press. This book was released on 2018-05-08 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dream Hoarders sparked a national conversation on the dangerous separation between the upper middle class and everyone else. Now in paperback and newly updated for the age of Trump, Brookings Institution senior fellow Richard Reeves is continuing to challenge the class system in America. In America, everyone knows that the top 1 percent are the villains. The rest of us, the 99 percent—we are the good guys. Not so, argues Reeves. The real class divide is not between the upper class and the upper middle class: it is between the upper middle class and everyone else. The separation of the upper middle class from everyone else is both economic and social, and the practice of “opportunity hoarding”—gaining exclusive access to scarce resources—is especially prevalent among parents who want to perpetuate privilege to the benefit of their children. While many families believe this is just good parenting, it is actually hurting others by reducing their chances of securing these opportunities. There is a glass floor created for each affluent child helped by his or her wealthy, stable family. That glass floor is a glass ceiling for another child. Throughout Dream Hoarders, Reeves explores the creation and perpetuation of opportunity hoarding, and what should be done to stop it, including controversial solutions such as ending legacy admissions to school. He offers specific steps toward reducing inequality and asks the upper middle class to pay for it. Convinced of their merit, members of the upper middle class believes they are entitled to those tax breaks and hoarded opportunities. After all, they aren't the 1 percent. The national obsession with the super rich allows the upper middle class to convince themselves that they are just like the rest of America. In Dream Hoarders, Reeves argues that in many ways, they are worse, and that changes in policy and social conscience are the only way to fix the broken system.

Download or read book Chasing Carrots Navigating the Allure and Pressure of Societal Expectations written by Charles Nehme and published by Charles Nehme. This book was released on with total page 51 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a world driven by ambition, success, and the relentless pursuit of happiness, we often find ourselves feeling like donkeys chasing a carrot dangled in front of our noses. This metaphor captures the essence of our daily lives, as we strive to attain the promises and rewards that society lays before us. We become ensnared in a cycle of craving, forever reaching for that elusive carrot, hoping it will bring us fulfillment and contentment. This book, "Chasing Carrots: Navigating the Allure and Pressure of Societal Expectations," is an exploration of the myriad ways in which society shapes our desires, aspirations, and behaviors. It delves into the subtle and not-so-subtle forces that drive us to pursue certain goals, often at the expense of our authentic selves. We live in a world where consumerism, social media validation, and the fear of missing out have become ubiquitous. The pressure to conform to cultural norms, achieve ever-higher levels of education, and climb the corporate ladder can be overwhelming. We are bombarded with messages that tell us happiness lies in material possessions, external validation, and the constant pursuit of success. But is this really the path to fulfillment? Are we truly content when we're constantly striving for more, when we're forever chasing that next carrot, whether it's a promotion, a new gadget, or a fleeting moment of social media fame? In the pages that follow, we will embark on a journey to uncover the reasons why society exerts such a powerful influence over our lives. We will examine the subtle ways in which societal expectations shape our thoughts, decisions, and actions. Through stories, research, and reflection, we will seek to understand the impact of these forces on our well-being and sense of self. Chasing Carrots" is not a book that offers quick fixes or easy answers. Instead, it invites you to question the narratives that surround us and encourages you to find your own path to a more authentic and meaningful life. It is a call to awareness, a reminder that we have the power to choose our own values, desires, and aspirations. As we embark on this journey together, let us remember that the pursuit of happiness should not be reduced to a relentless chase after an ever-receding carrot. It should be a quest for a life that reflects our deepest values, fosters genuine connections, and nourishes our inner selves. May this book serve as a guide, a source of reflection, and a catalyst for change as we navigate the complexities of modern society and strive to live lives that are truly our own. With curiosity and compassion, Charles Nehme

Download or read book Women Entrepreneurs and the Myth of Underperformance written by Shumaila Yousafzai and published by Edward Elgar Publishing. This book was released on 2018-02-23 with total page 285 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'A must read for all entrepreneurship scholars because it helps us to understand and appreciate the real and many roles of women entrepreneurs, their relevance and importance to societies across the World, as well as the challenges and issues women entrepreneurs can face. An exciting and interesting read which presents us with critical questions for the future - thank you.' - Sarah Jack, Lancaster University Management School, UK Taking a fresh look at how performance is defined by examining the institutional power structures and policies, eminent scholars herein explore ways to overcome constrained performance and encourage women?s entrepreneurial activities through a variety of methodological approaches and geographical contexts. Significantly, this book adds a critical perspective to defining ?success? and ?performance?, shattering misconceptions of underperformance in women-owned enterprises. The contributing authors raise questions on the limiting concept of the ?entrepreneur? and have valuable insights into policies to facilitate female entrepreneurs. Instead of taking a one-sided and narrow approach with regards to understanding the entrepreneurship performance phenomenon, this book argues that future researchers should take a fresh look at business performance, considering structural constraints, definitions of success and other socio-political factors. Scholars in the fields of entrepreneurship, gender studies, and institutional theory, as well as those who have a general interest in critical research, will benefit from this progressive step in entrepreneurship research.
