Book excerpt: #1 Wall Street Journal Best Seller USA Today Best Seller Amazon Best Book of the Year TED Talk sensation - over 3 million views! The counterintuitive approach to achieving your true potential, heralded by the Harvard Business Review as a groundbreaking idea of the year. The path to personal and professional fulfillment is rarely straight. Ask anyone who has achieved his or her biggest goals or whose relationships thrive and you’ll hear stories of many unexpected detours along the way. What separates those who master these challenges and those who get derailed? The answer is agility—emotional agility. Emotional agility is a revolutionary, science-based approach that allows us to navigate life’s twists and turns with self-acceptance, clear-sightedness, and an open mind. Renowned psychologist Susan David developed this concept after studying emotions, happiness, and achievement for more than twenty years. She found that no matter how intelligent or creative people are, or what type of personality they have, it is how they navigate their inner world—their thoughts, feelings, and self-talk—that ultimately determines how successful they will become. The way we respond to these internal experiences drives our actions, careers, relationships, happiness, health—everything that matters in our lives. As humans, we are all prone to common hooks—things like self-doubt, shame, sadness, fear, or anger—that can too easily steer us in the wrong direction. Emotionally agile people are not immune to stresses and setbacks. The key difference is that they know how to adapt, aligning their actions with their values and making small but powerful changes that lead to a lifetime of growth. Emotional agility is not about ignoring difficult emotions and thoughts; it’s about holding them loosely, facing them courageously and compassionately, and then moving past them to bring the best of yourself forward. Drawing on her deep research, decades of international consulting, and her own experience overcoming adversity after losing her father at a young age, David shows how anyone can thrive in an uncertain world by becoming more emotionally agile. To guide us, she shares four key concepts that allow us to acknowledge uncomfortable experiences while simultaneously detaching from them, thereby allowing us to embrace our core values and adjust our actions so they can move us where we truly want to go. Written with authority, wit, and empathy, Emotional Agility serves as a road map for real behavioral change—a new way of acting that will help you reach your full potential, whoever you are and whatever you face.
Download or read book Class Acts written by Rachel Sherman and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2007 with total page 760 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Sherman's insightful ethnography sheds light on the interactional dimension of symbolic boundaries and class relations as they are lived by luxury hotel clients and the workers who serve them. We learn how both groups perform class through emotion work and deepen our understanding of the role played by "niceness" in constituting equality and reversing hierarchies. As such, Class Acts is a signal contribution to a growing literature on the place of the self concept in class boundaries. It will gain a significant place in a body of work that broadens our understanding of class by moving beyond structural determinants and taking into consideration the performative, emotional, cognitive, and expressive dimensions of inequality."--Michele Lamont, author of The Dignity of Working Men: Morality and the Boundaries of Race, Class, and Immigration "Eye-opening, amusing, and appalling, Rachel Sherman's Class Acts explains how class inequality is normalized in the refined atmosphere of luxury hotels. This beautifully observed and engagingly written ethnography describes what kinds of deference and personal recognition money can buy. Moreover, it shows how workers who provide luxury service avoid seeing themselves as subordinate and how those whose whims are catered to are made comfortable with their privilege. Class Acts is a sobering and timely account of the legitimation of extreme inequality in a culture that prizes egalitarianism."--Robin Leidner, University of Pennsylvania "Rachel Sherman provides a penetrating and engrossing study of workers and guests in luxury hotels. Do workers resent the guests? Do guests disdain the workers? Sherman argues neither is true-and explains why."--Julia Wrigley, author of Other People's Children
Download or read book Le Ragioni dell Essere written by Dr. Gennaro Di Fazio and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2013-01-17 with total page 127 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La trama del libro Con questo libro, l’autore, partendo dal paradigma dei sistemi complessi , la cui struttura è qualcosa di molto diversa nonché superiore alla semplice somma delle singoli parti che li compongono, cerca di unire gli Uomini, tra loro e con la Natura, in un unico progetto di speranza e ottimismo. Benché, in relazione alla sua professione di Medico, egli estende detto paradigma soprattutto al campo della Medicina, vi sono tuttavia dei collegamenti anche con altre discipline umanistiche e con le varie vicende umane e istituzionali, al fi ne di indurre, con le idee che propone, attività e comportamenti verso il cosiddetto “Bene comune”. Non a caso come copertina ha scelto la foto di un’alba estiva - quella di Ponza, la sua isola nativa - come simbolo di nascita di un nuovo e radioso giorno. La motivazione del titolo, “Le ragioni dell’Essere”, può essere riassunta in queste frasi che si trovano all’ultimo capitolo del libro: “Siamo immersi in un più ampio progetto a più dimensioni le quali ci condizionano per un fi ne più grande della nostra umana comprensione. Esiste probabilmente una legge, un linguaggio misterioso, un progetto da compiere, per l’organismo e per la Vita in genere. Un disegno che guida gli eventi anche attraverso le generazioni, come se oltre l’ereditarietà genetica ce ne fosse una di tipo morale, una specie di nemesi,( giustizia compensatrice o giustizia divina) che si attiva e si collega a chissà quale strano meccanismo che poi giudica e sentenzia, secondo l’ordine morale delle cose”. Inoltre, per rendere la lettura più piacevole, il libro è stato arricchito con diverse citazioni e poesie. La foto della copertina e’ stata gentilmente off erta da Gennaro Mazzella da Ponza.

Download or read book Architecture and Embodiment written by Harry Francis Mallgrave and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-06-26 with total page 265 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In recent years we have seen a number of dramatic discoveries within the biological and related sciences. Traditional arguments such as "nature versus nurture" are rapidly disappearing because of the realization that just as we are affecting our environments, so too do these altered environments restructure our cognitive abilities and outlooks. If the biological and technological breakthroughs are promising benefits such as extended life expectancies, these same discoveries also have the potential to improve in significant ways the quality of our built environments. This poses a compelling challenge to conventional architectural theory... This is the first book to consider these new scientific and humanistic models in architectural terms. Constructed as a series of five essays around the themes of beauty, culture, emotion, the experience of architecture, and artistic play, this book draws upon a broad range of discussions taking place in philosophy, psychology, biology, neuroscience, and anthropology, and in doing so questions what implications these discussions hold for architectural design. Drawing upon a wealth of research, Mallgrave argues that we should turn our focus away from the objectification of architecture (treating design as the creation of objects) and redirect it back to those for whom we design: the people inhabiting our built environments.

Book excerpt: The textbook, Conversational Italian for Travelers, is a fun, friendly book, not formal like most language books, and teaches everything one needs to know to travel to Italy. If you want to really understand the Italian of today, you need this book! We learn language and culture as we follow the character Caterina in dialogues that detail her travels through Italy. As she boards planes, trains, and finally takes a ride in her cousin's car, we learn how to do these things in Italian. When she meets up with her Italian family, we learn the phrases of communicating with others, including what to say if you meet someone special, how to go shopping and how to use the telephone. Finally, Caterina goes on a trip to Lago Maggiore with her Italian family, and we learn phrases needed to stay at a hotel, go sight-seeing, and of course, go to the restaurant and order wonderful Italian food! Many Italian dishes commonly ordered in Italian restaurants are listed in the last three chapters of the boo

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Il presente testo affronta il tema dell’Angelologia studiando la Cabalà, le lettere ebraiche che compongono il nome di ognuno dei 72 Angeli e proponendo una spiegazione del carattere, dei talenti e dei difetti appartenenti a tutte le persone nate sotto l’influenza di ogni Angelo specifico. Inoltre ci sono capitoli introduttivi e di spiegazione sui Fiori di Bach, Fiori Australiani, Pietre, Aromaterapia e colori in quanto rimedi consigliati per creare un collegamento diretto con la propria energia Angelica specifica. Questi rimedi hanno la capacità, se usati in sinergia tra loro e con l’intenzione profonda della persona, di eliminare tutte quelle ostruzioni energetiche, psicologiche ed emotive che impediscono di contattare il flusso di energia del proprio Angelo, precludendo così le possibilità di sviluppo più profonde della persona.
