Download or read book Obsession written by Lennard J. Davis and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2009-05-15 with total page 298 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We live in an age of obsession. Not only are we hopelessly devoted to our work, strangely addicted to our favorite television shows, and desperately impassioned about our cars, we admire obsession in others: we demand that lovers be infatuated with one another in films, we respond to the passion of single-minded musicians, we cheer on driven athletes. To be obsessive is to be American; to be obsessive is to be modern. But obsession is not only a phenomenon of modern existence: it is a medical category—both a pathology and a goal. Behind this paradox lies a fascinating history, which Lennard J. Davis tells in Obsession. Beginning with the roots of the disease in demonic possession and its secular successors, Davis traces the evolution of obsessive behavior from a social and religious fact of life into a medical and psychiatric problem. From obsessive aspects of professional specialization to obsessive compulsive disorder and nymphomania, no variety of obsession eludes Davis’s graceful analysis.

Download or read book Irresistible Obsession written by Deepak Gupta and published by Inspirational Publishing. This book was released on 2024-03-23 with total page 189 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Obsession pulls us towards our loving work. Discipline pushes us to do anything. Discipline is overrated. It feels tough, powered & pressured on our routine while true obsession is underrated. Obsession is merely a play, a great pleasurable play from our heart & soul. It doesn't need any perfect routine & our entire life is dedicated to it unknowingly. Discipline is visible with time. If you seek it you can't ever find it. Obsession makes time invisible. It may not be the best of the world but can give you the best feeling of the world. If you often tell yourself to be disciplined then you aren't devoting entirely to your work. It's like telling a gloomy man to become contented. What if I told you to stop being sad when you are sad! So, I can't say to myself, to be disciplined when I'm in my comfort zone. The most intense world's best personalities like Nikola Tesla, Plato, Aristotle, William Shakespeare, Pablo Picasso, Vincent Van Gogh, Franz Kafka, Alexander the Great, Alfred Hitchcock, Stephen Hawking, Confucius, Michael Jackson or even Diogenes weren't focused on being disciplined but their obsession & that became irresistible as soon as they loved it. Diogenes once said, there is a false love that will make you something you are not. Suppose you were the last person on this earth, who would you impress? The world is divided between two kinds of personalities, consumed and energetic. If you observe, you will find a lot of people doing arduous work to live out their livelihood. They all feel their work tough and that's what our elders teach us; do the hard work. We all feel work is a burden and we have to do it even when we don't like it. What's the real secret of being energetic? Of course, energy can be faked. Truly, energy can be faked for so long until your mind bursts out and you feel extremely dissatisfied within your soul. Now, how to win the hearts of the audience? How to create the masterpiece that makes you eternal for life? Can you really make your life exciting by yourself? History is often remembered by artists and it's a great myth that we aren't artists. Everyone is an artist. It's not only the painters, writers, directors or musicians who are artists but everyone. If you aren't using your artistic capabilities in your work, you are pushing yourself slowly to get consumed. Irresistible Obsession, the book has carefully crafted thirty well-researched practical techniques for automatic discipline without knowing time & pain, skill mastery and finally work obsession to control your fortune. After researching, analysing history and learning about the world's best personalities, we feel, this book is insanely deep to assist you to find your own soul and the minute details of your most loving work. It's useful for artists, routine work, writers, creative people & most importantly, passionate people who want to live a fulfilled life. With insane techniques, the book, Irresistible Obsession will transform your life forever while making you into the person to reach and accomplish your goals with deep perfection, without making any hurry even with reasonable rest. In gist, it will bring out your best flawlessly even without giving you any pain. Focus is meditation; Multitasking is overrated; Motivation is void and irregular; Genius is overrated; & Interest and curiosity are underrated. A genius can also fail if he doesn't work honest enough. Affirmative, time is an illusion. Almost all people have enough time to shake the world. In this book, we are focusing on being irresistibly obsessed with our passion, so we can become your best, not someone else's best. Choose a job you love and you will never have to work a day in your life. - Confucius.

Book excerpt: Do you fear that God is angry with you? Do you wonder if God is really for you? if God really loves you? Deep down many of us believe that we are not good enough, and never will be good enough, to have a meaningful relationship with God. This is because we have been spiritually trained in ways that have left us with distorted and inadequate spiritualities of four different kinds: abusive anorexic addictive codependent And we are left with a toxic combination of fear and shame. We may try to get it right. We may try to control ourselves and others. We may try to please God and to earn God's love. After a while we find ourselves exhausted and discouraged, and we may feel even more alienated from God. Jeff VanVonderen, Dale Ryan and Juanita Ryan understand this problem because they have been there both personally and professionally. And they are prepared to help you rebuild your spiritual life. If you find yourself living out a burdensome and unfulfilling spirituality, this book is for you. If you are longing to have a relationship with God that works, this book can show you the way.

Download or read book Surfaces and Essences written by Douglas R Hofstadter and published by Basic Books. This book was released on 2013-04-23 with total page 594 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Analogy is the core of all thinking. This is the simple but unorthodox premise that Pulitzer Prize -- winning author Douglas Hofstadter and French psychologist Emmanuel Sander defend in their new work. Hofstadter has been grappling with the mysteries of human thought for over thirty years. Now, with his trademark wit and special talent for making complex ideas vivid, he has partnered with Sander to put forth a highly novel perspective on cognition. We are constantly faced with a swirling and intermingling multitude of ill-defined situations. Our brain's job is to try to make sense of this unpredictable, swarming chaos of stimuli. How does it do so? The ceaseless hail of input triggers analogies galore, helping us to pinpoint the essence of what is going on. Often this means the spontaneous evocation of words, sometimes idioms, sometimes the triggering of nameless, long-buried memories. Why did two-year-old Camille proudly exclaim, "I undressed the banana!"? Why do people who hear a story often blurt out, "Exactly the same thing happened to me!" when it was a completely different event? How do we recognize an aggressive driver from a split-second glance in our rearview mirror? What in a friend's remark triggers the offhand reply, "That's just sour grapes"? What did Albert Einstein see that made him suspect that light consists of particles when a century of research had driven the final nail in the coffin of that long-dead idea? The answer to all these questions, of course, is analogy-making -- the meat and potatoes, the heart and soul, the fuel and fire, the gist and the crux, the lifeblood and the wellsprings of thought. Analogy-making, far from happening at rare intervals, occurs at all moments, defining thinking from top to toe, from the tiniest and most fleeting thoughts to the most creative scientific insights. Like Gö, Escher, Bach before it, Surfaces and Essences will profoundly enrich our understanding of our own minds. By plunging the reader into an extraordinary variety of colorful situations involving language, thought, and memory, by revealing bit by bit the constantly churning cognitive mechanisms normally completely hidden from view, and by discovering in them one central, invariant core -- the incessant, unconscious quest for strong analogical links to past experiences -- this book puts forth a radical and deeply surprising new vision of the act of thinking.

Download or read book Love and the Soul written by Robert Sardello and published by North Atlantic Books. This book was released on 2011-06-28 with total page 401 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With economies in peril, war in the Middle East, genocides, global warming, and a host of other grim phenomena, the world has never seemed so besieged. The solution, says Robert Sardello, lies with the individual. In this timely, thoughtful book, he explains how the soul can engage with the outer world to produce radical change. Because we think of the world as a vast mechanism and behave as mechanical objects in it, the results are devastation and dysfunction. The key is to learn to identify with the plight of the Earth by developing a true sense of individual imagination and conscious awareness of inner purpose and beauty in conjunction with the soul of the world. Sardello shows how to achieve this awareness and bring what is inside out into the world, inspiring balance and stability. Using the Grail legend and the myth of Sophia—known as the Soul of the World—as well as writings by Jung, James Hillman, and Rudolf Steiner, Love and the Soul helps readers imagine a revitalized Earth by exploring the significance of grieving, the transformative power of radical receptivity, the creative power of dreaming, and a new basis for community.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After years of living with a set of religious demands that he could never live up to, Fil Anderson found himself spiritually bankrupt and emotionally drained. Following a crash-and-burn in professional ministry, he experienced relief in learning to be with God rather than doing for God. Instead of desperation, he found healing, and a rich new life with God.In Breaking the Rules, Fil invites us to explore what happens when good religion turns bad. At such times we are weighed down with expectations of what it takes to be "right with God"--whether it is the expectations of others, holding up under pressure, fixing what's wrong or accomplishing big things for God.When we set aside this false agenda, we find the courage to confess our fears and insecurities. We taste the depths of God's love for us. Here is an opportunity to quit trusting in your own ability to live for God, and simply trust in God instead.

Download or read book The Roots of My Obsession written by Thomas C. Cooper and published by Timber Press. This book was released on 2012-10-02 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why do you garden? For fun? Work? Food? The reasons to garden are as unique as the gardener. The Roots of My Obsession features thirty essays from the most vital voices in gardening, exploring the myriad motives and impulses that cause a person to become a gardener. For some, it’s the quest to achieve a personal vision of ultimate beauty; for others, it’s a mission to heal the earth, or to grow a perfect peach. The essays are as distinct as their authors, and yet each one is direct, engaging, and from the heart. For Doug Tallamy, a love of plants is rooted first in a love of animals: “animals with two legs (birds), four legs (box turtles, salamanders, and foxes), six legs (butterflies and beetles), eight legs (spiders), dozens of legs (centipedes), hundreds of legs (millipedes), and even animals with no legs (snakes and pollywogs).” For Rosalind Creasy, it’s “not the plant itself; it’s how you use it in the garden.” And for Sydney Eddison, the reason has changed throughout the years. Now, she “gardens for the moment.” As you read, you may find yourself nodding your head in agreement, or gasping in disbelief. What you’re sure to encounter is some of the best writing about the gardener’s soul ever to appear. For anyone who cherishes the miracle of bringing forth life from the soil, The Roots of My Obsession is essential inspiration.
