This book was released on 2020-06-18 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Everything is different now. The future is so uncertain, how we are supposed to live and love and just plain survive, is upside down and backwards. And it can feel positively over-whelming. But what I realized is that maybe, just maybe, we can turn what we learned about ourselves during these long months of quarantine, about how we think and work and dream, about how we function in relationships with our family, friends, or the world at large--into something good, something positive. Maybe we can use this global reset as a way to go forward into individual, personal greater happiness, health and success. All it takes is our willingness to move forward instead of backward, to embrace the lessons that emerged for us in this time of forced introversion. To come at life a little differently. With, say, optimism. Positivity. A belief in the possibility of good things happening. A willingness to say "thank you" to Life regardless of its bumps and hurdles. Study after study show that optimists, those with a positive, appreciative, forward thinking take on life--thrive. Pessimists do not. Optimism doesn't mean going around with a "glass is half full" mentality. It's much more. Optimism means making the best of what is. Optimism is an expansive perspective, an opening towards possibilities and opportunity. Optimism means choosing deliberately to see how things could work out, what might be a better way, what resources or help might be available. To see the good in our lives. Good happens all the time, in every corner of the globe. Whether it's José Andrés rushing in to feed the world's hungry, front-liners giving their all 24/7, or perfect strangers coming to the aid of someone in need, the more we recognize and appreciate the good in all, the happier we get, the longer we live, and the healthier we are. All it takes is a shift in attitude. "I Survived COVID-19, What Now?! Finding Happiness and Success in a Post-COVID World" is designed to give you insights and inspiration as to how to accomplish this powerful life-enhancing shift. It provides you with strategies, tips and techniques for how to find the positives in life despite awful/painful circumstances, along with examples of real people who have done just that. It's easier than you might think, and the rewards in terms of your happiness and success will truly be remarkable. Welcome to your brave new world post-COVID-19!

Download or read book Survival of the City written by Edward Glaeser and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2021-09-07 with total page 481 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of our great urbanists and one of our great public health experts join forces to reckon with how cities are changing in the face of existential threats the pandemic has only accelerated Cities can make us sick. They always have—diseases spread more easily when more people are close to one another. And disease is hardly the only ill that accompanies urban density. Cities have been demonized as breeding grounds for vice and crime from Sodom and Gomorrah on. But cities have flourished nonetheless because they are humanity’s greatest invention, indispensable engines for creativity, innovation, wealth, and connection, the loom on which the fabric of civilization is woven. But cities now stand at a crossroads. During the global COVID crisis, cities grew silent as people worked from home—if they could work at all. The normal forms of socializing ground to a halt. How permanent are these changes? Advances in digital technology mean that many people can opt out of city life as never before. Will they? Are we on the brink of a post-urban world? City life will survive but individual cities face terrible risks, argue Edward Glaeser and David Cutler, and a wave of urban failure would be absolutely disastrous. In terms of intimacy and inspiration, nothing can replace what cities offer. Great cities have always demanded great management, and our current crisis has exposed fearful gaps in our capacity for good governance. It is possible to drive a city into the ground, pandemic or not. Glaeser and Cutler examine the evolution that is already happening, and describe the possible futures that lie before us: What will distinguish the cities that will flourish from the ones that won’t? In America, they argue, deep inequities in health care and education are a particular blight on the future of our cities; solving them will be the difference between our collective good health and a downward spiral to a much darker place.

Download or read book Surviving Covid written by Jerome M. Adams and published by Post Hill Press. This book was released on 2022-06-28 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Cold Truths About Covid-19 From America's Former Top Doctor As the Covid-19 pandemic continues to plague America and the world, there has been one constant––a lack of consistent, verifiable, scientifically-sound information about the dangers, risks, and mitigation strategies that the average person can understand and put into practice to keep themselves and their families safe. As politicians and self-interested media personalities spread disinformation for their own purposes, most of us have been left scratching our heads, wondering what is true and what isn't. Now the former Surgeon General of the United States, freed from the political constraints he worked under in public office, can reveal all the information that Americans need to create a safe environment for their families at home, in public, and in their wider communities. As Dr. Adams explains, the best Covid policies are the ones which begin at home, and which come about as people in local communities work together to find a solution that fits their specific needs. Only through this bottom-up, community-driven approach will we finally make our way out of the pandemic.
