Book Synopsis Mind Unchained: Escaping the Overthinking Trap by : Gaurav Garg
Download or read book Mind Unchained: Escaping the Overthinking Trap written by Gaurav Garg and published by Gaurav Garg. This book was released on 2024-08-02 with total page 175 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Welcome to " Mind Unchained: Escaping the Overthinking Trap." If you've picked up this book, chances are you're intimately familiar with the labyrinthine corridors of your own mind. Perhaps you've found yourself trapped in thought spirals that rival the complexity of a Rubik's Cube. Or maybe you've perfected the art of turning a molehill of worry into a mountain of anxiety. If so, congratulations! You're in good company. This book is for the overthinkers, the worriers, the what-if enthusiasts, and anyone who's ever lost sleep contemplating the potential ramifications of that slightly awkward thing they said at a party... three years ago. Full disclosure: I'm a card-carrying member of the Overthinkers Anonymous (we meet every Tuesday, unless we overthink it and reschedule). This book is as much a personal journey as it is a guide. Think of me as your slightly neurotic Sherpa on this expedition through the peaks and valleys of the overactive mind. Within these pages, you'll find a blend of science, humor, personal anecdotes, and practical strategies. We'll explore the neuroscience behind overthinking, delve into the art of mindfulness, and even dabble in the philosophy of present living. But don't worry, this isn't some dry academic tome. I promise there are jokes. Some of them are even funny (I think... I've been overthinking it). We'll journey together through topics like: Why your brain loves to play "What If?" on repeat (Spoiler: It thinks it's helping) How to make friends with uncertainty (It's not as scary as it sounds, promise) The art of mental decluttering (Marie Kondo for your mind, if you will) Strategies for taming the wild thought-beasts that roam your consciousness And much more! But here's the real kicker: this book isn't about eliminating overthinking entirely. Let's face it, that's about as likely as convincing a cat to bark. Instead, it's about developing a healthier relationship with your thoughts. It's about learning to dance with your mind rather than being dragged along by it. So, if you're ready to embark on this adventure of self-discovery, mental acrobatics, and occasional dad jokes, then fasten your seatbelt (or don't, I'm not here to tell you how to live your life... or am I overthinking this author-reader relationship?) Remember, the journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step. Or in our case, a single thought about taking that step, followed by several hours of contemplating the pros and cons of different walking shoes. Let's begin, shall we?

Book excerpt: Like with most girls growing up with imagination and spirit, Sammy and Kris’ worlds that are inside their heads are so much cooler than the world which they live in.

One day those ideas completely reverse, the world of spies and mysteries coming vibrantly to life after being played for only moments. Now Sammy and Kris must live through their fantasy and find out it’s not as whimsical as they thought it would, but with even more depth than they could have imagined.

In the dead of night, in a well-hidden cabin in Georgia, assassins wake Sin from a dead sleep. No one should have been able to find them. But with the door crashing open, it’s too late to think about what went wrong. Sin is just fast enough to get away. Lee isn’t. Unable to find him, Sin will have to do something she’s never done before: ask for help. She turns to the two most likely to be able to help, Nick Stelian and former FBI Agent Owen Dunham. While Owen’s hands are tied, Annika Dunham’s aren’t. She speaks the language and can get Sin inside the Kurev organization. While Nick and Owen form an uneasy alliance, Sin and Annika attempt to gain access using everything they can to free Lee. Right and wrong have long since been obliterated. And one of Lee’s kidnappers looks far too familiar: someone Sin is convinced should be long dead. The ties between families and enemies have become intricately tangled. To save Lee, Sin will have to bend and break bonds she didn’t even know existed. She’ll have to do it all while protecting a new secret . . . Justice is the third and final book in the Vendetta Trifecta by USA Today bestselling author A.J. Scudiere. While it can be read as a standalone, if you haven’t read the other two, you’ll want to be sure you get the whole trifecta!

Book Synopsis How to Be Present in an Absent World by : Daniel Montgomery
Download or read book How to Be Present in an Absent World written by Daniel Montgomery and published by Zondervan. This book was released on 2020-02-25 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Experience the fullness of life that Jesus promises by learning how to engage with the present--even in the increasing busyness of work and family life. Do you ever wonder how long can you keep: grinding out eighty-hour work weeks? putting your marriage on the backburner? treating your employees like cogs in a machine? pushing your life aside before you realize your time is all up? At the heart of this collaborative project is the belief that the pain we experience is the result of absence--living disconnected from our authentic selves and lacking deep, meaningful relationships with others and with God. Daniel Montgomery, the founding pastor of Sojourn Community Church; Kenny Silva, a PhD candidate at Trinity International University; and Eboni Webb, who holds a doctorate of Clinical Psychology, pooled their efforts and expertise to focus on the problem of modern absence and the pain it causes us and those around us. This book is a guide for how to cultivate a self-awareness that empowers you to take ownership and engage in every area of influence. It's arranged into five sections, each focusing on one of the major areas of our lives where many of us struggle with absence: Time Place Body Others Story How to Be Present in an Absent World provides biblical, practical ways to handle the daily pressures of life without denying or escaping the present. Its goal is to help you rediscover what it means to show up for your own life. With interludes that offer a deep dive into the neurobiology of presence as well as principles and exercises that Dr. Webb employs in her clinical practice, Montgomery and his coauthors will equip you with the kind of self-understanding that allows you to realize God's design for human flourishing--whether in your church, in your job, or in your family.
Book Synopsis Escape from the Ivory Tower by : Nancy Baron
Download or read book Escape from the Ivory Tower written by Nancy Baron and published by Island Press. This book was released on 2010-08-13 with total page 271 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Most scientists and researchers aren’t prepared to talk to the press or to policymakers—or to deal with backlash. Many researchers have the horror stories to prove it. What’s clear, according to Nancy Baron, is that scientists, journalists and public policymakers come from different cultures. They follow different sets of rules, pursue different goals, and speak their own language. To effectively reach journalists and public officials, scientists need to learn new skills and rules of engagement. No matter what your specialty, the keys to success are clear thinking, knowing what you want to say, understanding your audience, and using everyday language to get your main points across. In this practical and entertaining guide to communicating science, Baron explains how to engage your audience and explain why a particular finding matters. She explores how to ace your interview, promote a paper, enter the political fray, and use new media to connect with your audience. The book includes advice from journalists, decision makers, new media experts, bloggers and some of the thousands of scientists who have participated in her communication workshops. Many of the researchers she has worked with have gone on to become well-known spokespeople for science-related issues. Baron and her protégées describe the risks and rewards of “speaking up,” how to deal with criticism, and the link between communications and leadership. The final chapter, ‘Leading the Way’ offers guidance to scientists who want to become agents of change and make your science matter. Whether you are an absolute beginner or a seasoned veteran looking to hone your skills, Escape From the Ivory Tower can help make your science understood, appreciated and perhaps acted upon.
Book Synopsis Escape from Innocence by : Mary Curtis
Download or read book Escape from Innocence written by Mary Curtis and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2006 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ellie Homans, artist and wife of a prominent surgeon, lives in sumptuous luxury in a Boston suburb. Senator Alexander Lindsay, of Bostonian aristocracy, is vital, handsome, and politically powerful. But privilege has shielded neither from loveless marriages. Together they find a passionate commitment that submerges their mutual devotion to fidelity and personal integrity. The discovery of their affair leads Ellie¿s husband to devise a life-threatening method to imprison his wife in her unwanted marriage. He unwittingly passes his vendetta to his daughter, whose fury brings mother and daughter to the brink of disaster. Ellie¿s escape from innocence to costly awareness leads her to the realization that love, no matter how mature, can have a dreadful price. A woman finally discovers what she wants¿and what it costs. Ellie Homans keeps a running tally of "shoulds" in her mind, a list of her failures as the wife of an eminent surgeon from one of Boston's first families and mother to a son following in his father's footsteps and a daughter who hates her. The list is a catalog of battles she's lost over the years, from the decoration of the house to where her daughter Annie should go to college. Curtis (Song for a Lifetime, 1999) unfolds this romantic drama set among the New England aristocracy with an assured hand. Rich, engaging characters demonstrate that love often comes at a high price. -Kirkus Discoveries

He rescues us from a consumerism gone haywire without advocating isolationism.

Numerous and powerful interest groups will fight such reforms with bitter determination. But what could provide a better source of drama and adventure than the struggle to make the simpler life a viable option for all?"—Barbara Ehrenreich, Civilization

Book Synopsis The Escape Trap by : Kanti Gopal Kovvali
Download or read book The Escape Trap written by Kanti Gopal Kovvali and published by Notion Press. This book was released on 2023-08-19 with total page 154 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Successful organizations and successful individuals have a hard time reinventing themselves. This is because they fall prey to what we call ‘System Traps.’ Any trap is a deceptive invite that allures the organization, and the people within to believe that embracing it is in their best interest. A trap may even give you the initial comfort that you are on the right track, waiting for you to fall into it. Interestingly, most well-intended advice from consultants, facilitation from trainers, and mainstream approaches to change management unwittingly set traps, such as: • The Assumption Trap • Shifting the Burden Trap • The Progress Trap • The Escalation Trap • The Success to the Successful Trap • The Limits to Success and Failure Trap • Seeking the Wrong Goal Trap • The Tragedy of Commons Trap • The Rule Beating Trap This book uses a story format to introduce you to the world of system traps and activate your systems thinking capabilities. Through the book, you will learn to spot system traps, discover an organization’s life-giving energies, create generative images of the future, change stunting organizational narratives, and emerge as an effective change facilitator. In ‘The Escape Trap,’ you play the role of a decision-maker. We hope you will engage with the story, make decisions, fall, rise, emerge victorious, and repeat.
