Book Synopsis Find Your Focus Zone by : Lucy Jo Palladino
Download or read book Find Your Focus Zone written by Lucy Jo Palladino and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2008-09-04 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Being able to perform any task with full attention has become one of the great unspoken-about challenges of modern life. As our culture has become more high-speed, techno-stressed, information-cluttered and media-saturated, we are getting pushed out of our focus zones without even realising it. If you work in a modern office, it is likely you are suffering from 'information fatigue syndrome', which means that even naturally bright and creative people are rendered incapable of making swift decisions, problem-solving efficiently or able to maintain appropriate energy levels. Award-winning psychologist Lucy Jo Palladino offers practical solutions for anyone juggling too much, who finds themselves in a state of 'continuous partial attention', seemingly unable to do any one task with full concentration. In order to help people combat the negative aspects of 'always-on' information culture, Palladino has come up with a new set of skills that will help readers beat distraction and win the fight against information overload. She provides eight sets of 'keys' that will unlock your best attention and help you balance adrenaline levels, even when you are under pressure or facing dull tasks. Rooted in sports performance psychology, yet practical and user-friendly, Palladino's cutting-edge methods will help you stay focused and enhance your performance in all areas of daily life where concentration is required.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Are your kids glued to their screens? Here is a practical, step-by-step guide that gives parents the tools to teach children, from toddlers to teens, how to gain control of their technology use. As children spend more of their time on tablets and smartphones, using apps specially engineered to capture their attention, parents are becoming concerned about the effects of so much technology use—and they feel powerless to intervene. They want their kids to be competent and competitive in their use of technology, but they also want to prevent the attention and behavioral problems that can develop from overuse.In this guide, Lucy Jo Palladino doesn’t demonize technology; instead she gives parents the tools to help children understand and control their attention—and to recognize and resist when their attention is being "snatched." Palladino’s straightforward, evidence-based approach applies to kids of all ages. Parents will also learn the critical difference between voluntary and involuntary attention, new findings about brain development, and what puts children at risk for attention disorders.

Book Synopsis Dreamers, Discoverers & Dynamos by : Lucy Jo Palladino, Ph.D.
Download or read book Dreamers, Discoverers & Dynamos written by Lucy Jo Palladino, Ph.D. and published by National Geographic Books. This book was released on 1999-01-19 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Does your imaginative, computer-proficient daughter tune out in the classroom? Does your spirited son become headstrong and aggressive when faced with the simplest decisions? Does your bold, energetic child have trouble focusing on basic tasks? Millions of children--one in five--have what psychologist Lucy Jo Palladino, Ph.D., calls the Edison trait: dazzling intelligence, an active imagination, a free-spirited approach to life, and the ability to drive everyone around them crazy. Named after Thomas Edison--who flunked out of school only to harness his talents and give the world some of its finest inventions--the Edison trait is on the rise in our younger generation. The heart of the issue is that they think divergently--they overflow with many ideas--while schools, organized activities, and routines of daily living reward convergent thinking, which focuses on one idea at a time. Drawing on examples from more than two decades of private practice, Dr. Palladino helps us cope with this challenging aspect of our child's intellect and personality, explaining in clear terms: - The three Edison-trait personality types: dreamers, discoverers, and dynamos - The eight steps to understanding, reaching, and teaching your Edison-trait child - The connection between the Edison trait and A.D.D.

Book Synopsis The Overnight Socialite by : Bridie Clark
Download or read book The Overnight Socialite written by Bridie Clark and published by Hachette Books. This book was released on 2009-06-02 with total page 302 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lucy Ellis moved to the Big Apple to pursue her lifelong dream of becoming a fashion designer, but the native Midwesterner has just about had it with the city. A mousy, self-conscious girl trapped in a job at a designer sweatshop, Lucy has been mistreated, road-blocked, and otherwise insulted since her arrival. Overwhelmed by city life, Lucy is about to pack it all in and return home to Minnesota. Then she meets Wyatt. After being publicly dissed by the glamour girl he'd been dating, man-about-town (and bored Ph.D. anthropologist) Wyatt Hayes wants to prove he's still at the top of his game and boasts to his best friend that he can transform any girl -- even wallflower Lucy Ellis -- into this year's "It" girl. If he can fool the upper crust of New York society into thinking an impostor like Lucy is the real thing, he can rip the chiffon veil off the whole Park Avenue social scene. Lucy's an unlikely candidate to become a red-carpet butterfly, but she considers it her last resort and jumps at the opportunity to "become somebody" in New York. Wyatt begins to rigorously train Lucy in the style, sounds, and sensibilities of socialites born with entire sets of silver spoons in their mouths. Three months of preparation culminate in Lucy's appearance at the ultra-exclusive Fashion Forum Gala, where Lucy and Wyatt finally confront New York's aristocracy -- and their feelings for each other. Set against the glittering backdrop of contemporary Manhattan, The Overnight Socialite puts a 21st-century sheen on a timeless story of transformation and unlikely love.
Download or read book Portion of Heart written by Nell Abbott and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2009-06-05 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a collection of short stories, very "southern" stories. The first section relates family tragedies and triumphs and touches on race relations as they existed in the decade of the 1940s. The second section consists of Christmas stories. The author has tried to select narratives that speak to most families:the problem of the elderly person in the home, jealousy over family properties, love affairs, unrequited love, young dreams and ambition, greed. Yet most of the stories dramatize at least one character trying to give back to the world a portion of its broken heart.

Book Synopsis The Edison Trait by : Lucy Jo Palladino
Download or read book The Edison Trait written by Lucy Jo Palladino and published by Crown. This book was released on 1997 with total page 378 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An award-winning clinical psychologist is the first to codify a pattern of thinking that puts one in five children on a collision course with a conforming world.Millions of children -- one in five -- possess dazzling intelligence, an active imagination, a free-spirited approach to life, and the ability to drive everyone around them completely crazy. Such kids, Lucy Jo Palladino argues, possess the Edison Trait. Unlike their peers, they think divergently (generating many ideas at once), rather than convergently (focusing on one idea at a time).While such kids have the same restless, creative urges that helped Thomas Edison, Bill Gates, Ted Turner, Maya Angelou, and others succeed in later life, their brain-storming minds often cause distress in school, where conformity rules the classroom. Further, some Edison kids have ADD -- attention deficit disorder -- which puts them at greater risk for dysfunction.Dr. Palladino helps parents identify and appreciate the Edison Trait in their children and determine whether their child is a Dreamer, Discoverer, or Dynamo. She offers eight steps designed to help understand and support the gifts of the Edison Trait and minimize its deficits. She also includes a special section for parents whose Edison kids have ADD.

Book excerpt: A GMA SUMMER MUST-READ! From the bestselling authors of The Knockoff, an outrageously funny novel about one woman's attempt—through clay diets, naked yoga, green juice, and cultish workout classes—to win back her career, save her best friend, and lose thirty pounds. "When Janey Sweet … navigates topless yoga and ruthless cycling classes in Lucy Sykes and Jo Piazza's satire, she realizes she’s better off without the green juice." —Us Weekly When Janey Sweet, CEO of a couture wedding gown company, is photographed in the front row of a fashion show eating a bruffin--the delicious love child of a brioche and a muffin--her best friend and business partner gives her an ultimatum: lose thirty pounds or lose your job. Sure, Janey has gained some weight since her divorce, and no, her beautifully cut trousers don't fit like they used to, so Janey throws herself headlong into the world of the fitness revolution, signing up for a shockingly expensive workout pass, baring it all for Free the Nipple yoga, and spinning to the screams of a Lycra-clad instructor with rage issues. As Janey eschews carbs, pays thousands of dollars to wellness gurus, and is harassed by her very own fitness bracelet, she can't help but wonder: Did she really need to lose weight in the first place?
Download or read book Sculthorpe written by Paul Sculthorpe and published by Random House. This book was released on 2008-12-29 with total page 302 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: PAUL SCULTHORPE is the man who was born to be a superstar. Touted as a future Great Britain skipper before he even played his first game as a professional, he has more than lived up to the billing over the ensuing years. The only player to ever be named Man of Steel in successive years, the St Helens captain is arguably the most talented man to grace a rugby league field in modern times. Yet Sculthorpe did not always have his sights set on Challenge Cup and Grand Final glory. As a youngster he spent his time booting a football around with brother Lee - and actually had to be forced into playing his first game of rugby. From that moment a star was born, as he went on to captain every side he represented, even though he was often playing a year above his age group. Warrington were the first to spot that potential, snapping him up on schoolboy terms, and helping shape the greatest player in Super League history. When he went hunting a bigger stage, St Helens had no hesitation paying a world record £370,000 - a transfer fee that quickly looked a bargain. Since then various rugby union clubs have sounded out the chances of tempting him into a code switch, while the biggest names in Australia would love to take the prize Pom Down Under. Throughout it all Scully has stayed true to his roots, even though that loyalty was sorely tested when knee injuries led to a whispering campaign that he was finished. Now Sculthorpe lifts the lid on a remarkable career. The highs and the lows; the friendships and the fall-outs; and where he feels his future REALLY lies. It's a no-holds barred account of one man's incredible rise to the top - and the steely determination which keeps him there.

Book excerpt: Hanging on the wall in little Jo's room hung KooKoo the Cuckoo clock. KooKoo hung with Jo for many years, but lately it seemed that Jo only noticed KooKoo when his batteries needed to be replaced. On the hour, for all those years, KooKoo never disappointed Jo, for he always came out to sound the cuckoo tune. KooKoo woke Jo every morning for school and reminded him when he needed to do things, such as study or have dinner. All that KooKoo really wanted was a little attention, perhaps an occasional look or a brief smile.
