Download or read book One Step from Stupid written by Pastor Larry J. Paxson and published by Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2023-12-15 with total page 117 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Finally, some sensible advice and caring encouragement when it comes to those who tend to give in to temptation and for those who suffer for their bad decision-making--Pastor Larry Paxson, a twenty-four-year veteran of relational Christian counseling, shares insights into the healing process. There is so much confusion about why we do such dumb things even when we know it will crush a relationship or a loved one's heart. And the only excuses that are given over and over are, "I don't know why I did it," "I guess I just wasn't thinking," "it meant nothing to me," "I didn't mean to hurt anyone," "that is not who I am," "I would never hurt my significant other," but they do and did. They break hearts and end the trust that has been built over the years in the relationship. It is almost like they were listening to someone's whispers and were under their spell to do wrong. And the realization is, that is exactly what happened. In this book, we will come to realize just how it happens and why. Reading this book could be the one thing that will keep your marriage together. One Step from Stupid: Living Life with One Finger on the Dumb Button is a must read for couples who are struggling in their relationships, for church counselors, and pastors who do Christian counseling. It is for anyone who accepts the challenge of trying to hold together a marriage or a relationship instead of following the way of our culture and just ending it. After all, it is so much easier than working on it, trying to make it better than it ever was before. Yes, it is possible for a complete healing of the relationship. We just need to know how. It is not from being one step from stupid and pushing the dumb button again and giving up.
Download or read book The Stupidity Paradox written by Mats Alvesson and published by Profile Books. This book was released on 2016-06-02 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Functional stupidity can be catastrophic. It can cause organisational collapse, financial meltdown and technical disaster. And there are countless, more everyday examples of organisations accepting the dubious, the absurd and the downright idiotic, from unsustainable management fads to the cult of leadership or an over-reliance on brand and image. And yet a dose of stupidity can be useful and produce good, short-term results: it can nurture harmony, encourage people to get on with the job and drive success. This is the stupidity paradox. The Stupidity Paradox tackles head-on the pros and cons of functional stupidity. You'll discover what makes a workplace mindless, why being stupid might be a good thing in the short term but a disaster in the longer term, and how to make your workplace a little less stupid by challenging thoughtless conformity. It shows how harmony and action in the workplace can be balanced with a culture of questioning and challenge. The book is a wake-up call for smart organisations and smarter people. It encourages us to use our intelligence fully for the sake of personal satisfaction, organisational success and the flourishing of society as a whole.

Download or read book Best Practices Are Stupid written by Stephen M. Shapiro and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2011-09-29 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What if almost everything you know about creating a culture of innovation is wrong? What if the way you are measuring innovation is choking it? What if your market research is asking all of the wrong questions? It's time to innovate the way you innovate. Stephen Shapiro is one of America's foremost innovation advisrrs, whose methods have helped organizations like Staples, GE, Telefónica, NASA, the U.S. Air Force, and USAA. He teaches his clients that innovation isn't just about generating occasional new ideas; it's about staying consistently one step ahead of the competition. Hire people you don't like. Bring in the right mix of people to unleash your team's full potential. Asking for ideas is a bad idea. Define challenges more clearly. If you ask better questions, you will get better answers. Don't think outside the box; find a better box. Instead of giving your employees a blank slate, provide them with well-defined parameters that will increase their creative output. Failure is always an option. Looking at innovation as a series of experiments allows you to redefine failure and learn from your results. Shapiro shows that nonstop innovation is attainable and vital to building a high-performing team, improving the bottom line, and staying ahead of the pack.
Download or read book What Got You Here Won t Get You There written by Marshall Goldsmith and published by Profile Books. This book was released on 2010-09-03 with total page 255 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Your hard work is paying off. You are doing well in your field. But there is something standing between you and the next level of achievement. That something may just be one of your own annoying habits.Perhaps one small flaw - a behaviour you barely even recognise - is the only thing that's keeping you from where you want to be. It may be that the very characteristic that you believe got you where you are - like the drive to win at all costs - is what's holding you back. As this book explains, people often do well in spite of certain habits rather than because of them-and need a "to stop" list rather than one listing what "to do". Marshall Goldsmith's expertise is in helping global leaders overcome their unconscious annoying habits and become more successful. His one-on-one coaching comes with a six-figure price tag - but in this book you get his great advice for much less. Recently named as one of the world's five most-respected executive coaches by Forbes, he has worked with over 100 major CEOs and their management teams at the world's top businesses. His clients include corporations such as Goldman Sachs, Glaxo SmithKline, Johnson and Johnson and GE.

Download or read book Theorizing Stupid Media written by Aaron Kerner and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2019-11-05 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores the stupid as it manifests in media—the cinema, television and streamed content, and videogames. The stupid is theorized not as a pejorative term but to address media that “fails” to conform to established narrative conventions, often surfacing at evolutionary moments. The Transformers franchise is often dismissed as being stupid because its stylistic vernacular privileges kinetic qualities over conventional narration. Similarly, the stupid is often present in genre fails like mother!, or in instances of narrative dissonance—joyously in Adventure Time; more controversially in Gone Home— where a story “feels off” It also manifests in “ludonarrative dissonance” when gameplay and narrative seemingly run counter to one another in videogames like Undertale and Bioshock. This book is addressed to those interested in media that is quirky, spectacle-driven, or generally hard to place—stupid!
