Download or read book Age Crisis How to Find Yourself written by Kitty Corner and published by Serhiy Karpov. This book was released on 2018-04-21 with total page 49 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: American psychologists nicknamed this syndrome of the midlife crisis ‘riot of the 40-years-old’. For regret, this syndrome is of mass proportions and, despite the apparent simplicity, is very dangerous. Sometimes the midlife crisis destroys families because a person suffers from the feeling of uselessness in life and for the others, and the emotions that everything created by him/her falls apart. Sometimes such person may leave a spouse, change the job, get a risky hobby, introduce other dramatic changes in life – but alas, he doesn’t become happier after these changes. People try to rush out if this condition without thinking and gain much more severe problems. Often in such cases, they cannot cope with the situation without medical or psychological aid. Many people prefer not to discuss this subject. It seems improper to them. It means that not everything is well in their life, that a man was unable to establish all the relations by this time, although he’s not a boy anymore. By the way, when talking about this crisis, people usually mean men but, for regret, it may concern anyone. Indeed, one way or another, all people feel changes in life by the age of forty or fifty. Just someone is ready to admit it, and someone will do his best to escape the need to face the problem. By this time, any person already achieves much, and he/she already has specific roles – husband, father, wife, director, manager, etc. Much power was taken to attain this. We created our place in society, and we tried to match this organization. Very often, we spent much mental energy on forming such an image. We sacrificed much. We were ambitious; we saw our goals. They were different – to educate the child properly, to create a decent circle of close people, to climb the career ladder, etc. We continue asking ourselves, ‘What were my youth dreams? Will, I never have it? Will, I am able to cope with the problems pursuing me in childhood? Or did I forget them?’ Would You Like To Know More?

Download or read book The Search for Fulfillment written by Susan Krauss Whitbourne and published by Ballantine Books. This book was released on 2010-01-12 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the fall of 1966, at a university in the Northeast, 350 students signed up for a psychological survey on personal development and happiness. In 1977, Susan Krauss Whitbourne, then a young psychology professor, came across the study and decided to expand it. She tracked down the study's original participants and questioned them every decade until she had forty years' worth of data. Now, in this groundbreaking book, Whitbourne reveals the findings of this extensive project, a seminal piece of research into how people change over the course of their lifetimes. The results indicate something fascinating: No matter how old or how content you might currently feel, it is never too late to steer your life toward a greater sense of purpose and satisfaction. Western society often paints a pessimistic view of aging, a "best years are behind you" attitude. But Whitbourne challenges this notion and posits that it's possible to find fulfillment at any age. Guided by her research, she identifies five different life pathways and provides a questionnaire that will help you discover which one you are currently on: • The Meandering Way You have a low sense of identity, lack priorities, and feel lost, unable to settle on a clear set of goals. • The Downward Slope You seem to have it all, until one or two poor decisions send your life into a spiral. • The Straight and Narrow Way You embrace predictability, shy away from risk, and don't enjoy shaking up your routine. • The Triumphant Trail Your inner resilience has allowed you to overcome significant challenges that could have left you despondent. • The Authentic Road You take a bold and honest look at your life, assess whether it's truly satisfying, and take the necessary risks to get back on track. Whitbourne shows how you can work yourself off a negative pathway and onto one that is more fulfilling. And if you identify yourself as being on one of the more positive pathways, you'll learn how to keep enhancing your feelings of satisfaction. Filled with insight and candid personal profiles of Whitbourne's subjects, The Search for Fulfillment offers proof that change is not only possible but ultimately rewarding. Revolutionary and inspirational, this encouraging book provides a new way of looking at our lives—and a guidepost for making changes for the better, at any age.

Download or read book Hillbilly Elegy written by J. D. Vance and published by HarperCollins. This book was released on 2018-05-01 with total page 270 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: THE #1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER IS NOW A MAJOR-MOTION PICTURE DIRECTED BY RON HOWARD AND STARRING AMY ADAMS, GLENN CLOSE, AND GABRIEL BASSO "You will not read a more important book about America this year."—The Economist "A riveting book."—The Wall Street Journal "Essential reading."—David Brooks, New York Times Hillbilly Elegy is a passionate and personal analysis of a culture in crisis—that of white working-class Americans. The disintegration of this group, a process that has been slowly occurring now for more than forty years, has been reported with growing frequency and alarm, but has never before been written about as searingly from the inside. J. D. Vance tells the true story of what a social, regional, and class decline feels like when you were born with it hung around your neck. The Vance family story begins hopefully in postwar America. J. D.’s grandparents were “dirt poor and in love,” and moved north from Kentucky’s Appalachia region to Ohio in the hopes of escaping the dreadful poverty around them. They raised a middle-class family, and eventually one of their grandchildren would graduate from Yale Law School, a conventional marker of success in achieving generational upward mobility. But as the family saga of Hillbilly Elegy plays out, we learn that J.D.'s grandparents, aunt, uncle, sister, and, most of all, his mother struggled profoundly with the demands of their new middle-class life, never fully escaping the legacy of abuse, alcoholism, poverty, and trauma so characteristic of their part of America. With piercing honesty, Vance shows how he himself still carries around the demons of his chaotic family history. A deeply moving memoir, with its share of humor and vividly colorful figures, Hillbilly Elegy is the story of how upward mobility really feels. And it is an urgent and troubling meditation on the loss of the American dream for a large segment of this country.
Download or read book Loneliness written by Tony Jeton Selimi and published by Tony Jeton Selimi. This book was released on 2020-06-10 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: So connected, we disconnected and find ourselves desperately alone drowning in an ocean of infinite possibilities. “A masterpiece that beautifully demystifies the evolutionary role of loneliness, echoes a powerful existential message for mankind, and amplifies people’s faith in the power of love.” Jack Canfield -Co-creator of Chicken Soup for the Soul™ Meticulously researched and written, #Loneliness: The Virus of the Modern Age explores the fierce scientific, psychological and spiritual impact of loneliness – a problem that has become an ironic epidemic in a world that is more interconnected than ever before. In a world where communication is instant, where billions of people can interact at just a moment’s notice, it will come as a shock to many to learn that loneliness is an epidemic more rampant and destructive than at any point in history. Almost everyone faces adversity from the isolation that causes us some degree of depression, anxiety or diminished self-esteem. We have become accustomed to a new way of being alone together in a technological cocoon that covers up our real pain. Our true essence is hidden behind facades that we show to the world from the fear of being judged, criticized, and rejected. This is what brings us out of a natural state of healthy balance, is the root cause of disease, and what creates the segregation experienced worldwide. #Loneliness is a global call for people to redefine themselves in the face of life's most significant challenges. Comforting, moving, and spiritually practical, this book is a guide to help you break through your apparent loneliness, and shift you toward crowd-nurtured world peace and the next stage in our evolution. Loneliness not only disintegrates your mental and physical health but also infects your genome and leads to multiple changes while painting a dark and negative picture of the world around you. The most surprising thing to learn is that today’s obsession with technology does nothing more than simply awaken the segregation, discord, and loneliness already inside us all, which further spirals our moods and outlook. Read this book to make you aware of that problem, create a road map that safely guides you out of your dis-empowered states, and empower yourself to redefine the meaning of your life so you can overcome adversity with ease and build the happiness and prosperity you so deeply crave. Use it to reveal how inner discord creates your deceptive loneliness, which is spontaneously appearing around the world in the form of war, racism, nationalism, xenophobia, homophobia, illness, high divorce rates, financial crisis, and so much more. A life manual that shows you how to extract wisdom from every life adversity, so you become a more balanced, mindful, and heart-centred individual, leader, parent, teacher, and human being. If you let it, each page will guide you and encourage you to make the changes that your soul is craving. The principles and ideas shared will teach you how to listen to your heart in ways you didn’t know possible, amplify your awareness and ultimately break free of the cocoon that is stopping you from seeing and embracing the beauty of this world. But it goes beyond you as individuals; it will teach you how to unite and ignite humanity’s collective voice so we can progress to the next stage of our evolution. If this is you calling, then get this book to breakthrough loneliness and live a more connected and love-infused life.

Download or read book Midlife Crisis written by Susanne Schmidt and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2020-03-01 with total page 283 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The phrase “midlife crisis” today conjures up images of male indulgence and irresponsibility—an affluent, middle-aged man speeding off in a red sports car with a woman half his age—but before it become a gendered cliché, it gained traction as a feminist concept. Journalist Gail Sheehy used the term to describe a midlife period when both men and women might reassess their choices and seek a change in life. Sheehy’s definition challenged the double standard of middle age—where aging is advantageous to men and detrimental to women—by viewing midlife as an opportunity rather than a crisis. Widely popular in the United States and internationally, the term was quickly appropriated by psychological and psychiatric experts and redefined as a male-centered, masculinist concept. The first book-length history of this controversial concept, Susanne Schmidt’s Midlife Crisis recounts the surprising origin story of the midlife debate and traces its movement from popular culture into academia. Schmidt’s engaging narrative telling of the feminist construction—and ensuing antifeminist backlash—of the midlife crisis illuminates a lost legacy of feminist thought, shedding important new light on the history of gender and American social science in the 1970s and beyond.
