Book excerpt: In Personal Intelligence, John D. Mayer, the renowned psychologist who co-developed the groundbreaking theory of emotional intelligence, now draws on decades of research to introduce another paradigm-shifting idea: that in order to become our best selves, we use an even broader intelligence--personal intelligence--to understand our own personality and the personalities of the people around us. Bringing together a diverse set of findings, his theory explores our ability to read faces; to accurately weigh choices in relationships, work, and family life; and to judge long-term goals. Mayer illustrates his points with examples drawn from the lives of successful athletes, police detectives, and musicians, showing how people with high personal intelligence are able to anticipate their own desires, predict the behavior of others, and motivate themselves to make better life decisions. Personal Intelligence is an indispensable book for anyone who wants to better comprehend how we make sense of our world.

This book faces very busy ideological preparedness in my life. It is in the context of managerial work that we have studied this aspect of English literature, but in this book it has by no means limited to that context. Busy idleness is a disease that affects everybody and pervades every aspect of life. Active non-action is the word that I would like to explain here.In our professional life, we always face problems in the shape of daily problem solving activities. Problems require a big picture perspective--which means reflection, systematic planning, creative thinking and time. Operational activities squeeze important problems out. Daily routines, superficial behavior, poorly prioritized unfocused tasks leech managers` capacities- making unproductive business.The problem is not a lack of knowledge or resources. The real problem is that they simply do not do those things. They spend their time spinning their wheels, attending meetings and responding to every little query and problem. Management is "the art of getting things done." Managers must act themselves and mobilize collective action on the part of others. The gap between knowledge and action, stretches wide and few managers seem able to cross it. The kind of behavior that exhibited active non-action as it is called pervasive corporate "knowing-doing gap." Managers always complain about the problem of active non-action but have not fully understood the underlying dynamics.When driven by deep personal commitment to the goal that cuts out distractions and overcomes difficulties. The purposeful action is not a quick shuffle or mere flirtation with ideas. It is action taking to produce certain results with undivided resolve. Although external issues in an organization can make this kind of action taking difficulties. We are deeply indebted to all the Websites and Academicians, Researchers, HR professionals and all Managers who participated directly or indirectly in authoring this book, giving us generously not only their time but also their knowledge and perspectives.

Download or read book One Small Step Can Change Your Life What Makes You Happy written by Kitty Corner and published by Serhiy Karpov. This book was released on 2018-02-27 with total page 68 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Continuous effort - not strength or intelligence - is the key to unlocking our potential” Winston Churchill Thoughts are material; they are directly related to what we receive and who we are. It is only by the power of thought that one can bring to life a new experience or set insurmountable walls. Much has been written on the topic of how this happens. I will not go deeper. I believe that it is not necessary to know thoroughly how the mobile phone works so that to speak of it. Thoughts are a tool that in skillful hands becomes, perhaps, the strongest of all four 'weapons.' It is not sufficient though. There must be an actual connection with the rest of the components. Words are also a physical and powerful tool, especially words that are repeated and recorded. Hence the power of mantras and prayers in all religions is enormous. Some researchers of these issues, for example, Tony Robbins, argue that even changing some of the familiar words in one’s vocabulary about some situation can affect the whole process in a given topic. But this is rather a perfection of experience, and I want to focus only on right tools. That’s what we do and where we apply energy in a physical manifestation. The following is the most common example You did – you get. You didn’t do – don’t be surprised. But actions alone are also not enough for drastic changes. It’s too long and time-consuming, like walking around the world barefoot. Questionable though, it’s possible, on the other hand, spare your feet. And what’s the point? - On the one hand, it is possible (although not a fact), on the other – you feel sorry for your legs. And what is good here? There are far more fascinating ways to see the world. You should not only do something but also use all other tools. Would You Like To Know More?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Traditionally, scientists have emphasized what they call the first and second natures of personality--genes and culture, respectively. But today the field of personality science has moved well beyond the nature vs. nurture debate. In Who Are You, Really? Dr. Brian Little presents a distinctive view of how personality shapes our lives--and why this matters. Little makes the case for a third nature to the human condition--the pursuit of personal projects, idealistic dreams, and creative ventures that shape both people's lives and their personalities. Little uncovers what personality science has been discovering about the role of personal projects, revealing how this new concept can help people better understand themselves and shape their lives"--Provided by publisher.
Download or read book Grit written by Angela Duckworth and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2016-05-03 with total page 350 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this instant New York Times bestseller, Angela Duckworth shows anyone striving to succeed that the secret to outstanding achievement is not talent, but a special blend of passion and persistence she calls “grit.” “Inspiration for non-geniuses everywhere” (People). The daughter of a scientist who frequently noted her lack of “genius,” Angela Duckworth is now a celebrated researcher and professor. It was her early eye-opening stints in teaching, business consulting, and neuroscience that led to her hypothesis about what really drives success: not genius, but a unique combination of passion and long-term perseverance. In Grit, she takes us into the field to visit cadets struggling through their first days at West Point, teachers working in some of the toughest schools, and young finalists in the National Spelling Bee. She also mines fascinating insights from history and shows what can be gleaned from modern experiments in peak performance. Finally, she shares what she’s learned from interviewing dozens of high achievers—from JP Morgan CEO Jamie Dimon to New Yorker cartoon editor Bob Mankoff to Seattle Seahawks Coach Pete Carroll. “Duckworth’s ideas about the cultivation of tenacity have clearly changed some lives for the better” (The New York Times Book Review). Among Grit’s most valuable insights: any effort you make ultimately counts twice toward your goal; grit can be learned, regardless of IQ or circumstances; when it comes to child-rearing, neither a warm embrace nor high standards will work by themselves; how to trigger lifelong interest; the magic of the Hard Thing Rule; and so much more. Winningly personal, insightful, and even life-changing, Grit is a book about what goes through your head when you fall down, and how that—not talent or luck—makes all the difference. This is “a fascinating tour of the psychological research on success” (The Wall Street Journal).
