Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Counselor and therapist Dr. Beth Blevins Cujé's original approach to self-help takes a giant-step beyond most self-help books. Become the Person You Were Meant to Be answers the question, "Why am I this way?" but goes on to answer the question, "How do I change?" Providing a framework for self-monitoring, simple tools for change, and four keys steps to guide change, Cuje's Choice-Cube Method equips readers finally to answer both questions.According to Cujé, normal feelings of defensiveness and self-protection can be dangerous when individuals become stuck in those postures. She points out that readers can use her method to check bodily stress, negative emotions, painful and distorted thoughts, and misdirected desires. Then once aware of those reactions, they can learn to take responsibility for them and use her Choice-Cube tools and four key steps to make necessary changes. Developed out of years of experience as a therapist, university adjunct faculty member, and workshop presenter, this down-to-earth application of current brain research, trauma research, and attachment theory can help readers consistently resolve problems in the present, rework past problems, and program their future. The author believes this method can benefit therapists as well as secular readers and believers. "Real-life examples lend credibility and authenticity to the program...Individuals seeking to better themselves might find that the author's insightfulness and the Choice-Cube Method work well for them." - ForeWord Clarion Reviews

Download or read book The Person You Mean to Be written by Dolly Chugh and published by HarperCollins. This book was released on 2018-09-04 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Finally: an engaging, evidence-based book about how to battle biases, champion diversity and inclusion, and advocate for those who lack power and privilege. Dolly Chugh makes a convincing case that being an ally isn’t about being a good person—it’s about constantly striving to be a better person.” —Adam Grant, New York Times bestselling author of Give and Take, Originals, and Option B with Sheryl Sandberg Foreword by Laszlo Bock, the bestselling author of Work Rules! and former Senior Vice President of People Operations at Google An inspiring guide from Dolly Chugh, an award-winning social psychologist at the New York University Stern School of Business, on how to confront difficult issues including sexism, racism, inequality, and injustice so that you can make the world (and yourself) better. Many of us believe in equality, diversity, and inclusion. But how do we stand up for those values in our turbulent world? The Person You Mean to Be is the smart, "semi-bold" person’s guide to fighting for what you believe in. Dolly reveals the surprising causes of inequality, grounded in the "psychology of good people". Using her research findings in unconscious bias as well as work across psychology, sociology, economics, political science, and other disciplines, she offers practical tools to respectfully and effectively talk politics with family, to be a better colleague to people who don’t look like you, and to avoid being a well-intentioned barrier to equality. Being the person we mean to be starts with a look at ourselves. She argues that the only way to be on the right side of history is to be a good-ish— rather than good—person. Good-ish people are always growing. Second, she helps you find your "ordinary privilege"—the part of your everyday identity you take for granted, such as race for a white person, sexual orientation for a straight person, gender for a man, or education for a college graduate. This part of your identity may bring blind spots, but it is your best tool for influencing change. Third, Dolly introduces the psychological reasons that make it hard for us to see the bias in and around us. She leads you from willful ignorance to willful awareness. Finally, she guides you on how, when, and whom, to engage (and not engage) in your workplaces, homes, and communities. Her science-based approach is a method any of us can put to use in all parts of our life. Whether you are a long-time activist or new to the fight, you can start from where you are. Through the compelling stories Dolly shares and the surprising science she reports, Dolly guides each of us closer to being the person we mean to be.

Book excerpt: 'Your life is precious - a precious gift. It is sacred; every moment of it. The opportunity to live rather than sleepwalk through our days belongs to us. This book is a call to wake up. It is a call to each one of us; to wake up, to live before we die.' It's easy to sleepwalk through life without ever really considering what we're here for. But life presents us with continual opportunities to wake up - and to think about not just what we do with our lives, but who we become while living them. Ultimately it is the story that we believe about ourselves, our lives and the world around us that will shape us - for better or for worse. So where do we find a good story - a convincing narrative that makes sense of it all? Steve Chalke suggests that Jesus' good news about the kingdom of God - a practical, lived-out expression of God's plans for the world - is the best story for us to find ourselves in. Each one of us is called to be part of the drama of the coming kingdom, and it's in this that we find a practical spirituality that helps shape our lives into everything we were meant to be.
