Book excerpt: What to do if it's time to take stock—and you have no time! Have you ever fantasized about taking time for yourself just to reflect on the quality of your work life? Are you doing what you really want to be doing? Or are you spinning your wheels so fast that you're headed for burnout? And most importantly, is there a way to revitalize and refocus your career to your satisfaction? If you're like most people, that annual vacation doesn't do the trick, and weekends are just a time to collapse before it starts up again on Monday. If you can't afford the luxury of a full-fledged sabbatical, then Clarity Quest is for you. This powerful eight-week "training" program, which culminates in a week of self-discovery, is something that will fit into the busiest of schedules. Pamela Ammondson offers simple exercises to help you: * Break away from career confusion, and let go of old fears * Renew your physical, mental, and emotional energy so that you can think clearly and creatively * Identify your core values * Gain the strength, stamina, and calm needed to make important career and life decisions * Clarify what you really want, and take control of your life with a new sense of purpose and vision For seven weeks, you'll follow the plan, do all the groundwork for your future, and watch your dreams come into focus. When you hit the eighth week, you'll take a week-long sabbatical to fine-tune those goals, recharge your batteries, and commit to making the decisions that will change your life for the better.

Download or read book Mind Unchained Escaping the Overthinking Trap written by Gaurav Garg and published by Gaurav Garg. This book was released on 2024-08-02 with total page 175 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Welcome to " Mind Unchained: Escaping the Overthinking Trap." If you've picked up this book, chances are you're intimately familiar with the labyrinthine corridors of your own mind. Perhaps you've found yourself trapped in thought spirals that rival the complexity of a Rubik's Cube. Or maybe you've perfected the art of turning a molehill of worry into a mountain of anxiety. If so, congratulations! You're in good company. This book is for the overthinkers, the worriers, the what-if enthusiasts, and anyone who's ever lost sleep contemplating the potential ramifications of that slightly awkward thing they said at a party... three years ago. Full disclosure: I'm a card-carrying member of the Overthinkers Anonymous (we meet every Tuesday, unless we overthink it and reschedule). This book is as much a personal journey as it is a guide. Think of me as your slightly neurotic Sherpa on this expedition through the peaks and valleys of the overactive mind. Within these pages, you'll find a blend of science, humor, personal anecdotes, and practical strategies. We'll explore the neuroscience behind overthinking, delve into the art of mindfulness, and even dabble in the philosophy of present living. But don't worry, this isn't some dry academic tome. I promise there are jokes. Some of them are even funny (I think... I've been overthinking it). We'll journey together through topics like: Why your brain loves to play "What If?" on repeat (Spoiler: It thinks it's helping) How to make friends with uncertainty (It's not as scary as it sounds, promise) The art of mental decluttering (Marie Kondo for your mind, if you will) Strategies for taming the wild thought-beasts that roam your consciousness And much more! But here's the real kicker: this book isn't about eliminating overthinking entirely. Let's face it, that's about as likely as convincing a cat to bark. Instead, it's about developing a healthier relationship with your thoughts. It's about learning to dance with your mind rather than being dragged along by it. So, if you're ready to embark on this adventure of self-discovery, mental acrobatics, and occasional dad jokes, then fasten your seatbelt (or don't, I'm not here to tell you how to live your life... or am I overthinking this author-reader relationship?) Remember, the journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step. Or in our case, a single thought about taking that step, followed by several hours of contemplating the pros and cons of different walking shoes. Let's begin, shall we?

Download or read book A Logical Journey written by Hao Wang and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 1997-02-03 with total page 420 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hao Wang (1921-1995) was one of the few confidants of the great mathematician and logician Kurt Gödel. A Logical Journey is a continuation of Wang's Reflections on Gödel and also elaborates on discussions contained in From Mathematics to Philosophy. A decade in preparation, it contains important and unfamiliar insights into Gödel's views on a wide range of issues, from Platonism and the nature of logic, to minds and machines, the existence of God, and positivism and phenomenology. The impact of Gödel's theorem on twentieth-century thought is on par with that of Einstein's theory of relativity, Heisenberg's uncertainty principle, or Keynesian economics. These previously unpublished intimate and informal conversations, however, bring to light and amplify Gödel's other major contributions to logic and philosophy. They reveal that there is much more in Gödel's philosophy of mathematics than is commonly believed, and more in his philosophy than his philosophy of mathematics. Wang writes that "it is even possible that his quite informal and loosely structured conversations with me, which I am freely using in this book, will turn out to be the fullest existing expression of the diverse components of his inadequately articulated general philosophy." The first two chapters are devoted to Gödel's life and mental development. In the chapters that follow, Wang illustrates the quest for overarching solutions and grand unifications of knowledge and action in Gödel's written speculations on God and an afterlife. He gives the background and a chronological summary of the conversations, considers Gödel's comments on philosophies and philosophers (his support of Husserl's phenomenology and his digressions on Kant and Wittgenstein), and his attempt to demonstrate the superiority of the mind's power over brains and machines. Three chapters are tied together by what Wang perceives to be Gödel's governing ideal of philosophy: an exact theory in which mathematics and Newtonian physics serve as a model for philosophy or metaphysics. Finally, in an epilog Wang sketches his own approach to philosophy in contrast to his interpretation of Gödel's outlook.

Download or read book The Basecamp Manifesto written by Terence C. Young and published by FriesenPress. This book was released on 2024-10-31 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is often said that it is lonely at the top. But this loneliness can be dangerous, not only to the leader but also to the led. It turns out we hold our environments as we are held. If we are not held in a caring and daring fashion, it shows up in how we live and lead. The Basecamp Manifesto is a formative work on developing and sustaining leadership skills. Here, Terence Young outlines the development of a changed narrative around leading organizations. Rather than the often-stereotyped perception of leadership as a solitary ascent to the top—followed often by an equally solitary descent down the leadership peak—Young has created a framework for leadership that relies on developing a “basecamp” of companions. Like the familiar basecamps of extraordinary physical ascents of Mount Everest and other spectacular and spectacularly challenging peaks, a leader’s basecamp is a secure base of trusted and trusting peers that shape and nurture you during the ascent to leadership. Young presents the gifts that current and future leaders should find in a secure base: greater clarity in the sense-making process, enhancement of agility in navigating dynamic situations, building endurance to face challenges, and fostering generativity for greater productivity and innovation in one’s life quest. The Basecamp Manifesto is written for leaders of all organizations, whether for-profit or nonprofit. Whether a business leader, an educational leader, a political leader, a religious leader, or other society-facing leader, all leaders face particular and specific challenges in leadership: How do I lead and navigate with those in my circle through a world of increasing volatility, uncertainty, complexity, and ambiguity? For the sake of those you lead, Young’s groundbreaking work says to leaders: find your people; find your secure base; find and shape and nurture the circle of trust that can make you a quality leader. The Basecamp Manifesto can help you to become intentional about shaping relationships where clarity, agility, durability, and generativity can be found and fostered.
