R510 Discovery Miles 5 100 Ships in 18 - 22 working days

According to best-selling self-help authors McKay and Fanning, four major core beliefs keep us from solving our problems: we tell ourselves that we just don't deserve to get what we want, we tell ourselves that the world is too dangerous for us to risk a change, we tell ourselves that we're too incompetent to fix our problem, or we tell ourselves that others are more important and that their needs should always come first. In How to Get There from Here, readers start by assessing which core beliefs are holding them back from solving their problem-and are offered specific self-help strategies to help them overcome these inhibiting beliefs. Readers are then introduced to problem-solving strategies that will help them deal with any problem they face, including step-by-step instructions to help them assess the problem, brainstorm possible solutions, evaluate the consequences of each solution, and develop an action plan to put the best of the new solutions into practice. The cycle closes with an evaluation of how the problem-solving process is going and an assessment of what one might change to improve their outcomes.

As the reader will start reading this book with an inevitable bias against it, Mr. Miles would ask him to be so kind as to listen to a few words first. He assures, to begin with, that this book is not a mere collection of systems: systems are included, it is true, and among these there are systems which can be, and frequently have been, most shamefully misused. The careful reader will notice that these systems come in the second places in the book; moreover he will notice that they are not all necessarily short cuts for the lazy; and he will candidly admit that even short cuts are not always an unmitigated curse. Contents: value of memory; helps to memory, apart from memory systems: in detail, with further examples; memory systems: in detail with further examples; systems applied to various subjects; practice and other helps; raisons d'etre, and the advantages of good methods and systems when rightly used; objections anticipated and answered: with a reference to some useful books.

Leave it to one of America s best-selling physician/authors to tackle one of the country s fastest-growing health concerns. With over 77 million baby boomers living in the U.S., memory loss is quickly becoming a major issue. Although the common belief is that these irritating lapses in the ability to remember are a normal part of aging, current scientific research indicates otherwise. In fact, there are a number of reasons these lapses can occur. The good news is that once we understand why, we can actually restore and even strengthen our mental acuity. In her new book, "What You Must Know About Memory Loss & How You Can Stop It, " Dr. Pamela Wartian Smith explains why we forget things and what we can do to not only reverse the problem, but also enhance our ability to focus, concentrate, and comprehend. Dr. Smith begins by discussing why it is important not to simply accept memory loss as a normal part of aging. She then presents an in-depth look at the most common causes of these lapses in memory nutritional deficiencies, hormonal imbalances, toxic overload, poor blood circulation, and lack of physical and mental exercise. She begins each section with a questionnaire to determine if the test taker s memory may be affected by that particular cause. The author then details how that cause is involved in impaired memory, as well as a host of other mental issues ranging from insomnia to personality changes. Dr. Smith follows each discussion with a list of proven remedies to correct each issue. Also included in the book is a special section on recognizing and dealing with severe memory loss. While the pharmaceutical companies continue to look for that one magic bullet to reverse memory loss, the fact is that there are numerous scientifically valid treatments available toaddress this growing concern. Dr. Smith empowers her readers to avoid an unnecessary part of aging by offering simple and effective solutions.
