Download or read book Tenacity in Children written by Sam Goldstein and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-04-10 with total page 166 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tenacity in Children examines how multiple generations of parents and caregivers raised children to become successful adults. Until relatively recent times in human history, there were no schools or organized institutions, nor were there parenting books. Rather, caregivers depended on the seven important instincts that evolved across tens of thousands of years in the human species. This volume highlights the ways in which these instincts are more important than ever in preparing children for tomorrow’s successes. Key areas of coverage include individual chapters devoted to examining each of the seven instincts – intuitive optimism, intrinsic motivation, compassionate empathy, simultaneous intelligence, genuine altruism, virtuous responsibility, and measured fairness – as well as practical strategies to guide children in acquiring and fine-tuning these essential human instincts. Tenacity in Children provides a solid foundation to prepare children for a resilient and happy future. It offers well-defined guideposts for adults committed to providing every child with the opportunity to access, strengthen, and employ these instincts as they negotiate childhood and passage into adult life. This book also serves as a rich resource for researchers, practitioners, and graduate students in mental health and public health disciplines as well as many interrelated fields as we all strive to promote the well-being of children. The collaboration of these two esteemed psychologists has been impacting on our field for decades. This new book continues that tradition. – Richard D. Lavoie, M.A., M.Ed.

Download or read book May Empathy Lead to Sense of Purpose Through Tenacity written by ANTONIO E. MORALES-PITA, PHD and published by Dorrance Publishing. This book was released on 2022-05-25 with total page 74 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: May Empathy Lead to Sense of Purpose Through Tenacity? By: Antonio E. Morales-Pita, PhD In the introduction, this author analyzes and summarizes three successful authors about empathy and sense of purpose, such as Keep Sharp Build a Better Brain at Any Age by Sanjay Gupta, The Purpose of Driven Life, which was a best seller, written by Rick Warren, and The Art of Empathy by Karla McLaren. This book is one of the few, or maybe the first one, in dealing with the triple interaction of empathy, sense of purpose and tenacity. Can empathy, sense of purpose, and tenacity be inherited? Why is it impossible to be defeated by procrastination if the individual possesses the trio empathy, sense of purpose and tenacity? Which one of them is the most effective in overcoming procrastination? Dr. Morales analyzes the consequence of being empathetic from the executor’s and the recipient’s standpoints. Is it possible to be simultaneously empathetic but neither tenacious nor lacking sense of purpose? Which was the most convincing proof of Gladys Morales’ immense empathy? Can the combination of the trio “empathy-sense of purpose-tenacity” be powerful enough to allow a person not to grieve after his/her most loved one’s decease?

Download or read book Grit written by Angela Duckworth and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2016-05-03 with total page 350 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this instant New York Times bestseller, Angela Duckworth shows anyone striving to succeed that the secret to outstanding achievement is not talent, but a special blend of passion and persistence she calls “grit.” “Inspiration for non-geniuses everywhere” (People). The daughter of a scientist who frequently noted her lack of “genius,” Angela Duckworth is now a celebrated researcher and professor. It was her early eye-opening stints in teaching, business consulting, and neuroscience that led to her hypothesis about what really drives success: not genius, but a unique combination of passion and long-term perseverance. In Grit, she takes us into the field to visit cadets struggling through their first days at West Point, teachers working in some of the toughest schools, and young finalists in the National Spelling Bee. She also mines fascinating insights from history and shows what can be gleaned from modern experiments in peak performance. Finally, she shares what she’s learned from interviewing dozens of high achievers—from JP Morgan CEO Jamie Dimon to New Yorker cartoon editor Bob Mankoff to Seattle Seahawks Coach Pete Carroll. “Duckworth’s ideas about the cultivation of tenacity have clearly changed some lives for the better” (The New York Times Book Review). Among Grit’s most valuable insights: any effort you make ultimately counts twice toward your goal; grit can be learned, regardless of IQ or circumstances; when it comes to child-rearing, neither a warm embrace nor high standards will work by themselves; how to trigger lifelong interest; the magic of the Hard Thing Rule; and so much more. Winningly personal, insightful, and even life-changing, Grit is a book about what goes through your head when you fall down, and how that—not talent or luck—makes all the difference. This is “a fascinating tour of the psychological research on success” (The Wall Street Journal).
