We all love comfort - but, psychologically, it can be a real trap,
holding you back and keeping you stuck in dead-end situations.
Using the principles of Rational Emotive Therapy, this book helps
people deal with discomfort in life, with advice on how to get
things done, achieve goals and overcome inertia. The book covers
the problems of those who take a masochistic approach to life's
frustrations, and those who use "quick fixes" such as alcohol and
drugs. It discusses how to overcome emotional problems which can
result when things don't go to plan, such as anger, depression and
self-pity. Topics include: The many faces of the comfort trap
dealing with urges and feelings of deprivation tolerating
unpleasant feelings dealing with impatience and boredom overcoming
procrastination developing persistence dealing with the discomfort
of change
Everyone feels socially awkward at times, but for some people
shyness can become an overwhelming problem, limiting social and
career opportunities, and severely restricting life goals. Rooted
in cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) techniques, Coping
Successfully with Shyness is packed full of advice on what to do if
you feel disempowered or embarrassed. It looks at how to understand
and manage those feelings of discomfort, and how to rebuild
confidence in a lasting way.
Circumstances do not make a person; they reveal a person. You are
likely to face many challenges and obstacles on your road to
success. After following the principles outlined in this book you
will focus on the solutions to overcome those issues rather than
blaming your circumstances. This will set you apart from others.
People who fail to achieve what they want to tend to avoid taking
responsibility. They blame the past, the challenges they've had,
society and situational factors. This is not you. Your
circumstances are what they are. What has happened in your past has
happened; and these are facts that cannot change. However, starting
today you can change the future, if you want to. In this book you
will find it does not matter what your background or education
consists of, or your sex, creed or ethnicity. I use a number of
examples of real life people throughout, to illustrate that success
is all down to principles such as focus, attitude, persistence,
hard work and the belief we have in ourselves. You will find these
principles and others used inside this book, which will help drive
you toward your own model of success, whatever that might be. The
amazing thing is that there are no secrets, no 'golden bullet'. In
fact, the answers you have been searching for are a lot closer to
you than you realise, they are well within your reach. Why? Because
the road to your success all starts with a thought process and a
decision to take massive action, to move forward to where you want
to be in life. the purpose of this book is to offer inspiration and
insights that will be useful to you along your prosperous journey,
so enjoy the journey!

a few months ago, he was a successful executive. Now he's a
desperate man. Join David Ponder on an incredible journey to
discover the Seven Decisions for success that can turn any life
around, no matter how hopeless a situation seems.
Forty-six-year-old David Ponder feels like a total failure. Once a
high-flying executive in a Fortune 500 company, he now works a
part-time, minimum wage job and struggles to support his family.
Suddenly an even greater crisis hits: his daughter becomes ill, and
he can't even afford to get her the medical help she needs. When
David's car skids on an icy road, he wonders if he even cares to
survive the crash. But an extraordinary experience awaits David
Ponder. He suddenly finds himself traveling back in time, meeting
leaders and heroes at crucial moments in their lives-from Abraham
Lincoln to Anne Frank. As David speaks with each of these
historical figures, they share their personal philosophies with
him. By the time his journey is over, he has received seven secrets
for success-and a second chance. Among these crucial decisions for
success are: The buck stops here, and I am responsible for my past
and my future I will seek wisdom and be a servant to others I will
greet this day with a forgiving spirit, and I will forgive myself
Today I will choose to be happy and be the possessor of a grateful
spirit The message is simple: Life is about choices. While we have
little control over the events that occur in our lives, success is
determined by the choices we make daily. The Traveler's Gift will

In Braintenance, neuroscientist and science communicator Dr Julia
Ravey explains how you can take charge of your brain with methods
based on science to change habits, achieve your goals and lead the
life you want. Your brain likes to keep you safely in your comfort
zone. And that is what holds you back. We have no trouble imagining
the goals we would like to achieve - a healthier lifestyle, passing
exams or embarking on a new career - but turning them into reality
is far harder. Dr Julia Ravey explains the practical methods that
will enable you to transform your life for the better. By using the
latest developments in science and psychology you will learn how to
direct your focus, boost belief, beat procrastination - and why you
should forget motivation. Using our current understanding about the
brain and the way we behave, Ravey has developed techniques that
enabled her to pursue her goals - and they will work for you, too.
The more you understand about your thinking, the more control you
can have over your life. Change is good. Your brain just needs some
convincing.

"This little book is filled with positive affirmations. Every
thought you think and every word you speak is an affirmation. So
why not choose to use only positive affirmations to create a new
way of thinking, acting, and feeling?…By reading these
affirmations—one a day, several at a time, or just by opening the
book at random—you’re taking the first step toward building a
more rewarding life…I know you can do it!" – Louise L. Hay
A legendary performance coach shares his simple, proven and fun
methods for cultivating motivation and keeping it. Doing something
for its inherent satisfaction - rather than external rewards - is
the key to success and satisfaction in any endeavour. Motivation is
the essential and comprehensive guide to how you can achieve this.
Filled with practical methods and techniques Stefan Falk developed
at McKinsey & Company, and through twenty-five years as a
senior executive and performance coach working with elite athletes,
top executives, special operators in the armed forces, and leaders
from all walks of life. To satisfy our psychological needs in
today's professional world, we must pursue them consciously and
purposefully - but unfortunately, most of us don't know how to do
so effectively. The true solution to becoming happier, healthier
and more productive is to become intrinsically motivated: to stop
wasting time on activities that don't really contribute to our
careers or our company's success, eschew the dog-eat-dog culture of
modern business, and find ways to take pleasure in what we do -and
to do it well. This ground-breaking book will revolutionize your
approach to success at work and beyond. Published as Intrinsic
Motivation in the United States.

areas where you are not in control, living with uncertainty and
loss, coping with job lodd, making healthy choices in
relationships, dealing with failures, dealing with unfairness and
injustice. Professor Windy Dryden says that while even the luckiest
of us must sometimes face advertisity, we can learn to deal with
difficult situations so that wan can go on living as healthily as
we can.
