Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Are you looking for more clarity in your work life, a serene way forward in your career while fulfilling your potential? The way to mastering corporate life is a journey. It is like learning to ride a wave. You fall into the water over and over in the beginning, then occasionally you manage to stand on the board for a certain time. With more practice, but also good coaches and knowledge about how to best do it, keeping your balance becomes easier and easier. By staying motivated and keeping at it, you will be riding the waves—with grace, ease, and joy. Attaining corporate life mastery is no different. Dr. Kathrin Anne Meier, who has held senior positions in top-tier companies for more than 20 years, will teach you everything you need to know to become more self-assured and self-confident in your corporate environment. Backed by first-hand experience, she shows us how to set our minds to something and make that something happen. Dr. Meier’s advice will set us on the road to having an extraordinary career that is fully in line with what we want and who we are—again, with grace, ease, and joy. Dr. Meier’s points include being conscious of your thoughts and freeing yourself from limiting beliefs and false judgements; being passionate about your values; and radiating those values. She recommends not to endlessly wait for inspiration or invitations from others before you act on behalf of your own career, but rather find out what you want, who you are, and what gives you meaning. And from there, make your goals with a good action plan that you review regularly. She also recommends helping others develop and generally seeking the good in people. She encourages you to be your best friend and supporter and—when it is unclear where to go—follow joy and excitement! Mastering Corporate Life provides life-changing lessons for anyone who is seeking to enhance the way they work and live. ​After doing business globally in over 30 countries, Dr. Meier regularly shares her broad knowledge and experience in risk management, leadership, and employee development at conferences and as a trainer with her own firm, Corporate Life Mastery. She holds a master's degree in mathematics and a PhD in computer science, both from the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Zurich, Switzerland, and an MBA in financial services from the University of St. Gallen, also in Switzerland. Being genuinely interested in people, she knows and understands the worries and needs of employees working in a corporation, as well as the importance of finding happiness, fun, and joy in corporate work.

Clear the decks: God isn’t disorganized; why should we be? 4. Maximize the morning: Schedule a standing appointment with God. 5. Pull off at rest stops: Routinely replenish your inner resources. 6. Operate on yourself: Diagnose and treat yourself spiritually. 7. Live “As If”: Act by faith even when your emotions aren’t cooperating. 8.

Download or read book Learn Better written by Ulrich Boser and published by Rodale. This book was released on 2017-03-07 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For centuries, experts have argued that learning was about memorizing information: You're supposed to study facts, dates, and details, burn them into your memory, and then apply that knowledge at opportune times. But this approach to learning isn’t nearly enough for the world that we live in today, and in Learn Better journalist and education researcher Ulrich Boser demonstrates that how we learn can matter just as much as what we learn. In this brilliantly researched book, Boser maps out the new science of learning, showing how simple techniques like comprehension check-ins and making material personally relatable can help people gain expertise in dramatically better ways. He covers six key steps to help you “learn how to learn,” all illuminated with fascinating stories like how Jackson Pollock developed his unique painting style and why an ancient Japanese counting device allows kids to do math at superhuman speeds. Boser’s witty, engaging writing makes this book feel like a guilty pleasure, not homework. Learn Better will revolutionize the way students and society alike approach learning and makes the case that being smart is not an innate ability—learning is a skill everyone can master. With Boser as your guide, you will be able to fully capitalize on your brain’s remarkable ability to gain new skills and open up a whole new world of possibilities.

Download or read book Mastering the Art of Quitting written by Peg Streep and published by Da Capo Lifelong Books. This book was released on 2013-12-24 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Find out why the happiest, most successful people have the ability both to persist and to quit. In a culture that perceives quitting as a last resort and urges us to hang in, Mastering the Art of Quitting tackles our tendencies to overanalyze, ruminate, and put a positive spin on goals that have outlived their usefulness. Bestselling author Peg Streep and psychotherapist Alan Bernstein demonstrate that persistence alone isn't always the answer. We also need to be able to quit to get the most out of life. They reveal simple truths that apply to goal setting and achievement in all areas of life, including love, relationships, and work: Quitting promotes growth and learning, as well as the ability to frame new goals. Without the ability to give up, most people will end up in a discouraging loop. The most satisfied people know when it's time to stop persisting and start quitting. Quitting is a healthy, adaptive response when a goal can't be reached. Featuring compelling stories of people who successfully quit, along with helpful questionnaires and goal maps to guide you on the right path, Mastering the Art of Quitting allows you to evaluate whether your goals are working for or against you, and whether you need to rechart certain aspects of your life. When is it time to stop persisting and start quitting? Take a moment and answer the following questions. Just thinking about the answers will give you insight into your ability to quit artfully and restart your life. Do you believe that "winners never quit and quitters never win"? How realistic are you when it comes to setting goals? What matters more: staying the course or exploring new possibilities in life? How much of your sense of self relies on other people's judgments? Do you tend to hang in longer than you should, even when you're unhappy? When you try something new, do you focus on the effort you have to put in or the possibility of failure? Are you a procrastinator or a delayer when it comes to getting things done? How much do you worry about making a mistake? Do you second-guess yourself? How hard is it for you to get over a setback?

Download or read book Mastering the Business of Practice written by Marc B. Cooper and published by . This book was released on 2009-05-01 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What does it really take to have a highly successful practice? You might think that having a thriving practice takes knowing the right way to run your practice as a business. And to run your practice as a highly profitable business, you might believe you must have precise scripts, the best business processes, and the most well-defined and highly calibrated systems. Sorry to disappoint you, none of these delivers success. Practice success goes far beyond knowing how to produce the results. Practice success isn't the result of the right information, prescriptions, recipes, tips, and formulas. There is another domain to master without which success will not occur. And that is what this book is about. This domain is about who you need to be as an owner, as a manager, as a leader and as a marketer. If you can't be a powerful owner, if you can't be an effective manager, if you can't be an inspirational leader, if you can't be someone who attracts patients, then whatever information you have and whatever actions you take will not be effective. In order to access this domain of who you need to be in the practice, I have written this book using the most commonly asked questions culled from my 25 years as a practice management consultant. By standing in the shoes of dentists who have asked these questions and by thoughtfully considering the responses, you will see yourself and how you are in your practice. You will see how the answers in this book teach profound lessons about yourself, which will allow you to change, resulting in you being more highly effective and powerful in your practice. Lao Tzu once said; "Mastering your enemies makes you strong. Mastering yourself makes you fearless." This book is about mastering yourself in the business of practice. This book will give you insights, revelations and a much deeper understanding of yourself as a leader, manager and owner. These insights will help you to think and act in new ways that allow you to produce much better outcomes and results. This is your path to mastery. Let's take these first steps together.

Download or read book Mastering Community written by Christine Porath and published by Balance. This book was released on 2022-03-08 with total page 325 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the author of Mastering Civility, a thoroughly researched exploration of the impact and importance of building thriving communities, with actionable steps on how to create them in your work and broader life. In her powerful new book, Christine Porath explores how the rise of technology and modern workplace practices have fractured our communications yet left us always “on” digitally. Through now common practices like hot-desking and remote work (even without the added isolation of social distancing we experienced during the pandemic), our human interactions have decreased, and so too have our happiness levels. This lack of a “human factor” is sparking a crisis in mental health that will have repercussions for years to come, leaving people lonelier and making the bottom line suffer, too. What Christine has discovered in her research is that leaders, organizations, and managers of all stripes may recognize there is a cost, but have no idea as to implement the cure: Community. With her signature depth and grasp of research across myriad industries including business, healthcare, hospitality, and sports, Christine extrapolates from the statistics on the experiences of hundreds of thousands of people across six continents to show us the potential for change. Through sharing information about the community, empowering decision-making discretion and autonomy, creating a respectful environment, offering feedback, providing a sense of meaning, and boosting member well-being, anyone can help a community truly flourish. The applications are endless, the stories are positive and uplifting, and will inspire the reader to establish and grow their community—be it in the workplace or the PTA—and make it thrive.

Download or read book Mastering Life s Energies written by Maria Nemeth, PhD and published by New World Library. This book was released on 2010-10-04 with total page 246 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Everyone has had luminous moments — those instances when we experience the beauty and grace of life, whether we’re looking into the eyes of a newborn or watching the sun set over the ocean. But those moments are usually brief and difficult to consciously create. Many of us have been successful in attaining personal and professional goals, but we’re too exhausted to enjoy what we’ve accomplished. Or we might walk around in a fog, feeling vaguely frustrated, resigned, or cynical and asking all the wrong questions about how to make our lives better. In either case, we miss the purpose of being alive: to wake up and fully become ourselves, to allow others to contribute to us and, in turn, to contribute our gifts to the world — fully savoring the journey along the way. This fascinating new book gives us specific methods for bringing luminosity into our lives on a consistent basis, allowing us to view the world with much younger, more vibrant eyes. Mastering Life’s Energies shows us how to use all the energies of our lives — physical vitality, creativity, time, money, enjoyment, and relationship — to realize our goals and dreams and, even more important, live a luminous life, filled with possibility and promise.
