Download or read book Top Sergeant written by William G. Bainbridge and published by Fawcett. This book was released on 1996-06 with total page 332 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a military career spanning more than three decades, Bill Bainbridge saw service in three wars, fought in two of them, and was captured in one. He received ten Good Conduct Medals, two awards of the Combat Infantry Badge, three Army Commendation Medals, and the Distinguished Service Medal, among others. But the greatest moment in his career came when he was selected to be Sergeant Major of the U.S. Army, its highest NCO position, an office he was the first to hold for four years. But Bainbridge's most important job in his illustrious career was tending to the welfare of his soldiers. Top Sergeant is all about doing what a good sergeant does best -- attending to the needs of his men -- and what it takes to be a great noncommissioned officer in an army that officers are proud to command but NCOs really run.

Download or read book Goal Mapping written by Brian Mayne and published by Watkins Media Limited. This book was released on 2012-01-01 with total page 266 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Set and achieve goals in all areas of your life through a popular, proven system that uses words and visuals to connect the conscious with the subconscious. 7 steps for stimulating the whole brain—and harnessing conscious, intended success—for fans of The Secret and anyone who wants to make their dreams a reality. Goal setting is a natural function of the brain. Every decision is in effect a goal, which triggers a subconscious process that transforms the decision into an action and onto a result. Becoming a master at goal setting is the first step in mastering life. So why are some people so much more successful than others? This was the burning question that inspired Brian Mayne to develop his unique Goal Mapping system. The Goal Mapping system fuses Eastern and Western techniques to create a holistic method for achieving success. The system uses both left and right brain—bringing words, pictures, and symbols together to connect the conscious to the sub-conscious, in a way that your subconscious accepts your goals as the dominant command to be pursued. The Goal Mapping system utilizes 7 steps that stimulate whole brain activity to harness intrinsic aspects necessary for any kind of conscious, intended success. The system creates a personalized goal map, combining words and pictures that become your blueprint for future success.

Download or read book Experiencing Endings and Beginnings written by Isca Salzberger-Wittenberg and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-05-01 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Throughout life we undergo many changes in our circumstances, beginnings and endings of relationships, gains and losses. This book highlights the emotional turmoil which, to a greater or lesser extent, accompanies these changes. It considers the nature of the anxieties aroused by a new situation and the ending of a previous state at various stages in life. Endings and beginnings are shown to be closely related, for every new situation entered into, more often than not, involves having to let go of some of the advantages of the previous one as well as losing what is familiar and facing fear of the unknown. The author shows how all these aspects of change evoke primitive anxieties, stemming from our earliest experiences of coming into this world. While beginning life outside holds the promise of a wider, more enriching existence it involves the loss of the known, relative safety of life inside mother's body. Moreover, the human newborn is at first utterly helpless, totally dependent on others to keep him alive.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What are some of the central connections between narrative, systemic and attachment therapies? How do early emotional experiences in families shape our narratives about ourselves and our families? In what ways do family attachments shape our narrative abilities, such as being able to reflect on and integrate our experiences? This book sets out a framework for practice – Attachment Narrative Therapy – that provides a new approach to working with families, couples and individuals. This is not offered as a prescriptive model but as an aid and guide to practice that draws aspects of narrative and attachment therapy into systemic work. The synthesis of these ideas offers clinicians a new integrative way to approach their practice – one in which the three approaches are used to create a greater whole than their constituent parts. The book includes: Clinical examples Personal reflections Frameworks for clinical practice Therapeutic guides that include details of the application of core techniques Extensive reading guides that offer connections to related theory and practice Attachment Narrative Therapy is essential reading for a wide variety of therapists and counsellors along with researchers and trainers in those fields.
