This book was released on 2015-05-11 with total page 104 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Selfishness and Self Absorption: How to Stop It from Ruining Your Relationships We all want our relationships to be successful. A great relationship is unlike anything else in life, and can contribute a lot to our wellbeing and happiness. Sadly, many of us struggle in maintaining healthy relationships. Very often, our own selfish patterns and behaviors are at the root of our inability to really reach our romantic potential. In this book, we will talk about how to overcome selfishness and realize more fulfilling relationships. We will talk about the root causes of selfish behavior, so we can better understand ourselves and so better ourselves. The three main causes of self-absorption that we will look at are: - Biological: evolutionary causes, from Darwin's Origin of Species to Dawkin's Selfish Gene - Psychological: how we think. Selfish, egotistical reasoning versus principled, ethical reasoning. We'll look at Kohlberg's moral development theory, and how you can use it to overcome your unconscious selfish instincts. - Social: we'll take a look at how contemporary culture puts pressure on us to behave selfishly, and how we can change this and live more for others. We will go over specific techniques and practices that you can easily adopt into you every day life to overcome selfishness and learn how to love unselfishly and unconditionally. We'll talk about: - How to develop mutually supportive relationships as partnerships. - How to monitor yourself and check your selfish impulses to avoid unnecessary confrontation. - How to learn how much space you take up, and strategies for stepping up or stepping back to create more equality and fairness in our relationships. - The importance of giving without receiving. With these tools in hand, you will be well on your way to developing more loving relationships that will allow you to achieve more and be a happier, more compassionate lover and individual.
Book Synopsis That's Not What I Meant! by : Deborah Tannen
Download or read book That's Not What I Meant! written by Deborah Tannen and published by Harper Collins. This book was released on 2013-04-23 with total page 169 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At home, on the job, in a personal relationship, it's often not what you say but how you say it that counts. Deborah Tannen revolutionized our thinking about relationships between women and men in her #1 bestseller You Just Don't Understand. In That's Not What I Meant!, the internationally renowned sociolinguist and expert on communication demonstrates how our conversational signals—voice level, pitch and intonation, rhythm and timing, even the simple turns of phrase we choose—are powerful factors in the success or failure of any relationship. Regional speech characteristics, ethnic and class backgrounds, age, and individual personality all contribute to diverse conversational styles that can lead to frustration and misplaced blame if ignored—but provide tools to improve relationships if they are understood. At once eye-opening, astute, and vastly entertaining, Tannen's classic work on interpersonal communication will help you to hear what isn't said and to recognize how your personal conversational style meshes or clashes with others. It will give you a new understanding of communication that will enable you to make the adjustments that can save a conversation . . . or a relationship.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Richard has caught wonderfully in this text the sensitivity and delicacies of therapeutic interaction as well as the complex processes through which young people have to steer in their development towards adulthood. Richard’s important and engaging text combines believable stories of young people with the provision of theoretical comment and developmental questions for the practitioner. I trust that this book will reach a wide audience of all those who are interested in and committed to the welfare and development of young people.’ Colin Lago, in his Foreword ‘This book goes a long way in explaining why the person-centred approach is so powerful with young people. It teases apart many of the fears, hurts, disappointments, familiar problems and social assaults that encourage adolescents to close off, turn to drugs, and attack others. After a clear and concise explanation of the theory, Richard takes us on amazing journeys into the heart and mind of the clients described in the book. They are struggling with many of the obstacles in the path of most children trying to grow up in this period of social toxicity. The book is a real gift to anybody interested in raising and counselling young people." — Peggy Natiello, in the Foreword
