This book was released on 2022-05-25 with total page 74 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: May Empathy Lead to Sense of Purpose Through Tenacity? By: Antonio E. Morales-Pita, PhD In the introduction, this author analyzes and summarizes three successful authors about empathy and sense of purpose, such as Keep Sharp Build a Better Brain at Any Age by Sanjay Gupta, The Purpose of Driven Life, which was a best seller, written by Rick Warren, and The Art of Empathy by Karla McLaren. This book is one of the few, or maybe the first one, in dealing with the triple interaction of empathy, sense of purpose and tenacity. Can empathy, sense of purpose, and tenacity be inherited? Why is it impossible to be defeated by procrastination if the individual possesses the trio empathy, sense of purpose and tenacity? Which one of them is the most effective in overcoming procrastination? Dr. Morales analyzes the consequence of being empathetic from the executor’s and the recipient’s standpoints. Is it possible to be simultaneously empathetic but neither tenacious nor lacking sense of purpose? Which was the most convincing proof of Gladys Morales’ immense empathy? Can the combination of the trio “empathy-sense of purpose-tenacity” be powerful enough to allow a person not to grieve after his/her most loved one’s decease?
Download or read book IS IT POSSIBLE FOR SENIORS TO AVOID A FALL written by Antonio E. Morales-Pita Doble PhD and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2023-09-28 with total page 85 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: IS IT POSSIBLE FOR SENIORS TO AVOID A FALL Falls are the leading cause of injury, emergency room visits, and hospitalizations for seniors in North America. Tripping down can reduce independence and accelerate the need for long-term care. Systematically reading this book— as well as introducing and embracing the author’s recommendations related to physical exercising into their lives— would most likely help seniors to avoid collapsing or plummeting to the floor. In the introduction and first chapter of this book, the writer analyzes important research contributions from Dr. Angela Duckworth, Dr. Katherine Milkman, as well as a fitness professional Amanda Sterczyk as far as physical exercising experiments are concerned. At the end of the day, the scientific groups could not get definite conclusions. This author is convinced that, one of the reasons why the experiments were not successful, was that the word tenacity was not even included or mentioned as a possible factor related to the results of the research. While chapter II may be interpreted as a wake-up call to the readers about the direct physical consequences of plunging, chapter III stands out because it attempts to challenge them to understand, not only the tables, but also their conclusions, and even to create their own in the third table. A special characteristic of this chapter is that the author narrates his own experience introducing tenacity and being in control of his health. Chapter IV is related to the five factors generally leading to a fall, emphasizing the helping role of systematic exercising to reduce the chances of plummeting, which requires the conscientious introduction of tenacity. Additionally, the author includes three factors that can help in avoiding dropping down for seniors, according to his own successful experience. Chapter V includes two very important topics:1) Twenty five suggestions of possible ways for seniors to avoid falling derived from the author’s commitment and dedication to improve his health; and 2) the rivalry or confrontation between tenacity and procrastination exemplified by the author’s two main victories: a) learning English in Cuba during his early youth becoming a bilingual stenographer in less than three years, and b) entering upon the University of Havana without being allowed— by the Cuban government representatives — to finish High School and ranking as the salutatorian student amidst six hundred peers, as well as being appointed as instructor of his own colleagues two years before finishing his career in economics. Chapter VI deals with being in control of one’s health by means of sixteen recommendations and eight symptoms of recognizing that health is not doing well, while Chapter VII relates to the author’s experience in the relationship between systematic exercising, tenacity, and sense of purpose. Chapter VIII is dedicated to the positive effect of walking dogs on avoiding falls in seniors. Chapter IX exemplifies the combination of tenacity and sense of purpose in preventing, steering clear of, or keeping away from falls confirmed by twenty examples of remarkably eminent persons, sixty-five % of which lived more than eighty years.
Download or read book Tenacity in Children written by Sam Goldstein and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-04-10 with total page 166 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tenacity in Children examines how multiple generations of parents and caregivers raised children to become successful adults. Until relatively recent times in human history, there were no schools or organized institutions, nor were there parenting books. Rather, caregivers depended on the seven important instincts that evolved across tens of thousands of years in the human species. This volume highlights the ways in which these instincts are more important than ever in preparing children for tomorrow’s successes. Key areas of coverage include individual chapters devoted to examining each of the seven instincts – intuitive optimism, intrinsic motivation, compassionate empathy, simultaneous intelligence, genuine altruism, virtuous responsibility, and measured fairness – as well as practical strategies to guide children in acquiring and fine-tuning these essential human instincts. Tenacity in Children provides a solid foundation to prepare children for a resilient and happy future. It offers well-defined guideposts for adults committed to providing every child with the opportunity to access, strengthen, and employ these instincts as they negotiate childhood and passage into adult life. This book also serves as a rich resource for researchers, practitioners, and graduate students in mental health and public health disciplines as well as many interrelated fields as we all strive to promote the well-being of children. The collaboration of these two esteemed psychologists has been impacting on our field for decades. This new book continues that tradition. – Richard D. Lavoie, M.A., M.Ed. Author of It's So Much Work to Be Your Friend: Helping Children with Learning Disabilities Find Social Success Tenacity in Children is the perfect balance between concepts, knowledge, scientific discourse, practical ideas and touching stories that truly illustrate the principles shared in the book. This book should reach the hands of every person dedicated to working with children. – Encarni Gallardo, MBA, CBM Executive Director, Children’s Service Society of Utah Written in an easy-to-read, narrative style, Drs. Goldstein and Brooks impart their innovative concept of Tenacity in Children along with its seven essential instincts by using heartwarming stories, personal and professional insights, research, and wisdom. – Joyce C.

Download or read book Existential Perspectives on Supervision written by Emmy van Deurzen and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2009-07-31 with total page 230 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Supervision is an essential part of counselling and psychotherapy practice. It is increasingly recognised as a tool for ensuring high professional standards. In an era of regulation and tightening control, there is a growing professional need to take stock and reflect on what it means to work with human problems. It is vital that therapists address the moral and philosophical dimensions of their profession and ask themselves what it is to be human. This rich and far-reaching book explores supervision from this timely philosophical perspective. Designed both for trainees and more seasoned professionals, whatever their theoretical orientation, it makes a clear case for seeing existential perspectives on supervision as complementary to, rather than as a substitute for, other forms of supervision.

Download or read book The Baby and the Bathwater written by Nina Coltart and published by Phoenix Publishing House. This book was released on 2020-10-31 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: '...if this is her final book, she has left the best for last. Psychoanalysts trained within the Independent Group are often asked by psychoanalysts and psychotherapists abroad which book they should read to get a feel for the way independent psychoanalysts think and work. In the past one has referred to Winnicott's Playing and Reality, Rycroft's Imagination and Reality, Khan's The Privacy of the Self, and Marion Milner's opus. But if we are to have one book, this is it. We may say "Here, you will find it here". This work is a literary spirit of place - a beautifully rendered conjuring of sensibility - and to my mind it is the single best expression of the English psychoanalyst of independent persuasion we are ever likely to have.' From the Foreword by Christopher Bollas
Download or read book Thinking about Leadership written by Nannerl O. Keohane and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2012-09-16 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A practical and insightful look at what leaders do, how and why they do it, and the challenges they face Leadership is essential to collective human endeavor, from setting and accomplishing goals for a neighborhood block association, to running a Fortune 500 company, to mobilizing the energies of a nation. Political philosophers have focused largely on how to prevent leaders from abusing their power, yet little attention has been paid to what it actually feels like to hold power, how leaders go about their work, and how they relate to the people they lead. In Thinking about Leadership, Nannerl Keohane draws on her experience as the first woman president of Duke University and former president of Wellesley College, as well as her expertise as a leading political theorist, to deepen our understanding of what leaders do, how and why they do it, and the pitfalls and challenges they face. Keohane engages readers in a series of questions that shed light on every facet of leadership. She considers the traits that make a good leader, including sound judgment, decisiveness, integrity, social skill, and intelligence; the role that gender plays in one's ability to attain and wield power; ethics and morality; the complex relationship between leaders and their followers; and the unique challenges of democratic leadership. Rich with lessons and insights from leaders and political thinkers down through the ages, including Aristotle, Queen Elizabeth I, Franklin D. Roosevelt, and Nelson Mandela, Thinking about Leadership is a must-read for current and future leaders, and for anyone concerned about our prospects for good governance.
