Download or read book You Don t Know Squat written by Michael Dexter Hankins and published by Covenant Books, Inc.. This book was released on 2023-02-24 with total page 344 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Four decades ago, a friend of the author remarked that a book should be written in honor of someone they both knew. The indiscreet nickname for this person is Squat. Up to speed on most all facets of life, Squat knew just enough to be dangerous, mainly to himself. When a problem arose, he found a solution, oftentimes causing more harm than good. The two pals quickly brainstormed and came up with a book title. All they needed was substance of some educational and entertainment value to place between covers. Flash ahead forty years. Sadly, the friend is no longer here. Having over six hundred articles, stories, and editorials published by various newspapers and periodicals at his disposal, author Michael Dexter Hankins had more than enough material to finally create such a testament. Going through a short yet lengthy editing process, You Don't Know Squat! came to life as an eclectic mix of 102 humorous and quirky tales. It's also an entertaining plethora of undeniable facts, hyperbole extraordinaire, outlandish thoughts, unsubstantiated information, life adventures, misadventures, irony, oxymoron, gossip, sarcasm, inflammatory opinions, uncalled-for advice, and secret innuendos. Literary scholars and bibliophobes alike will find the contents humorously enlightening.

Download or read book More than a Cog written by David Baron and published by David Baron. This book was released on 2014-04-07 with total page 154 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “MORE than a COG” is a guide meant to help “regular” employees learn how they can get more out of their jobs while becoming indispensable to their companies. For as long as I can remember I have worked alongside some number of “regular” employees. And they have all complained about their positions, their compensation and their companies. And, they never understood why they were in the positions they were, or why others (such as myself) were treated so differently. Finally, after years of being exposed to such tribulations, and, coupled with the past several years of hard times for the American work-force, I decided to try to help all of those regular employees become more than regular. Are you a Cog in some big machine of a Company? It’s OK – most of us are. But are you secure in your position within that company? Are you getting recognized and compensated the way you think you should? Whether you’re flipping burgers for McDonalds, bending fenders for GM or counting beans for Earnst & Young, you need to be more than just another Cog – you need to be the best. Learn how great employees: Work at a career, not just a job. Don’t allow time, inexperience or overconfidence to limit them. Understand and honor the two-way relationship between themselves and their company. Make sure that everyone knows what needs to be known. Recognize and act upon opportunities to shine. Honor commitments that may have been made. Manage supervisor and customer expectation levels. Show pride in hard jobs done well. Take responsibility when things go wrong. Recognize that superiors and customers are partners for success. This ground-breaking manual for employees can show you how to increase your value to your company, while increasing the amount of joy and pride you take in your work. Here are some of the strong points that the book and its message have going for it: Reads easy - I am literally “talking” to the reader. As a reader you can visualize me speaking to you, employee-to-employee. The “conversation” feels personal, it feels natural. Reads quickly - An interested reader should be able to breeze through this book in two or three sittings. This is not some dense, 1,000+ page tome, but more of a svelte manual, short and to the point. Humorous and topical - I employ many references to real life situations or popular theatrical arts that most readers will identify with and enjoy. The stories help people feel more at ease, making it easier to get the message across. Surprising and Obvious at the same time - Just like anything else that generates those wonderful “Ah ha” moments in life, this book says things that will open peoples' eyes and make them feel surprised that they “...never thought of that before.” And yet as you sit there, after reading it, you will know that most people don't see what is so obvious. High Goals Tempered with Realism - With each lesson of “how to do things” comes a safety valve, a dose of reality, called Caveats. Readers appreciate it when an author lets them know that he knows the limits of his own advice. Easy to Grasp - Each chapter presents a single notion or technique. Plus the text is distilled down to its most basic message in the final “take-away” that concludes each chapter. Written by true authority - I am not some stuffy college professor, a Wall Street analyst, or retired CEO. I am and have always been, an employee – just a Cog. I am writing as one employee to another. I know what I'm talking about, and it comes across that way. A Needy Audience - The U.S. collegiate system churns out several hundred thousand new employees per year, on top of the tens of millions of workers already in the workforce. Nobody has been trained on “how to work.” Without help, many of these people are sitting ducks. Little Competition – There are dozens of books on how to climb the corporate ladder, how to be an effective leader or successful entrepreneur, how to be more organized, yada, yada, yada. But there are practically no books on how to be a good employee. Managers make up less than 20% of any corporation. I'm interested in the other 80%, the people nobody cares too much about - the common worker. Timely - Now more than ever, employees need to hear the message of this book. Employees need to learn what they can so that they can hold on to the jobs they have.

Download or read book Could it be Adult ADHD written by Jan Willer and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2017-03-06 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One out of every 10 adult psychotherapy clients likely has ADHD. Due to high comorbidities with depression, anxiety, substance abuse, and other mental disorders, along with considerable behavioral dysfunction, adult ADHD is even more common in clinical populations than the general public. When an ADHD diagnosis is missed, psychotherapy is often frustrating and less effective. Could it be Adult ADHD? is for mental health professionals who wish to learn how to recognize, assess, and treat adult ADHD. Written in a style maximally accessible to the practicing mental health professional, this book educates early-career psychotherapists and experienced professionals alike on the disorder and its treatment. Author Jan Willer provides a full description of adult ADHD symptoms, based on the most current research, including executive functioning problems, emotional dysregulation, atypical reward sensitivity, and problems with time perception. Recognizing patterns of dysfunction is essential to identify ADHD, so two detailed composite cases are presented, along with supplemental case material. Strengths that may be associated with ADHD are described. Willer offers guidance on providing psychoeducation about cognitive differences in ADHD, which is essential for client self-acceptance and adaptive functioning. Common psychotherapy problems with ADHD clients are addressed, including chronic lateness to sessions, missed appointments, motivation problems, difficulties with homework, and tangentiality. Willer also discusses medications for ADHD, including their benefits, contraindications, and side effects, and reviews the effectiveness of non-traditional treatments.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The biggest problem with success is that people always expect more from you, thought Amanda. She stared hard at the folded piece of paper sitting on the desk in front of her, hoping it would just go away. Why did I say yes? She wondered. I must have been crazy! We do a couple projects, and now they want me to do this? She cautiously poked at it again with the end of her pencil, like it was a bomb about to go off. She flicked at the crumpled edge of the paper, those terrible words hidden just out of sight but taunting her nonetheless. Finally, she could take it no more. She put down the pencil and grasped the paper with shaking hands. Why did I agree to run this thing? What do I know about this stuff, anyway? With agonizing slowness, Amanda opened up the paper to once again read those terrible words, the words that she had committed to. The thing she had promised to do. Yes, no problem, Ms Moldiva. Sure! It’ll be fun! In large, bold letters at the top of the crinkled sheet of paper were the words: Wanted: Organizer for Valentine’s Day School Dance. Amanda’s shuddered. It’s going to be a disaster! --- Join the Project Kids in their fourth big adventure as they come together to organize the Valentine’s Day dance at A. J. Wilkins Intermediate School. Along with the challenges of tackling their biggest project yet, an age-old question will test them to their limits. Will cupid strike the Project Kids - or even worse - pass them by? Parent/Teacher Note: The fourth project is their biggest one yet, and the most varied and complex. In addition to planning the dance as a project, they will need to learn how to develop relationships and improve their communication skills as they engage with the whole school. They will learn how to positively influence others, and some tips on how to face up to bullies along the way.
