Opción B

by Sheryl Sandberg Adam Grant

Basado en su propia experiencia, Sheryl Sandberg, directora de operaciones de Facebook y autora del bestseller Vayamos adelante, firma junto con Adam Grant, profesor de Wharton y autor de Originals, un libro práctico e inspirador sobre la superación. Después de la repentina muerte de su marido, Sheryl Sandberg creyó que ni ella ni sus hijos podrían volver a ser felices. «Estaba en "la nada"», escribe, «en un vacío inabarcable que inunda el corazón y los pulmones, y merma la capacidad para pensar e incluso para respirar.» Su amigo Adam Grant, psicólogo en Wharton, le explicó que hay unos pasos concretos que podemos dar para recuperarnos y reponernos de las experiencias que nos destrozan la vida. No nacemos con una cantidad determinada de resiliencia, sino que ésta es un músculo que todos podemos desarrollar. Opción B combina la experiencia de Sheryl con las reveladoras investigaciones de Adam sobre cómo hallar fuerzas cuando afrontamos la adversidad. Desde el instante demoledor en el que encuentra a su marido desplomado en el suelo del gimnasio, Sheryl nos abre su corazón -y su diario- para describir la profunda pena y desolación que siguió a la muerte de Dave. Opción B, sin embargo, va más allá de la terrible pérdida de Sheryl y explora cómo un amplio abanico de personas ha superado todo tipo de reveses, desde una enfermedad o la pérdida del empleo a una agresión sexual, desde los desastres naturales a la violencia de la guerra. Todas estas historias muestran la capacidad del espíritu humano para perseverar... Y recobrar la alegría y la felicidad. La resiliencia proviene tanto de nuestro interior como del apoyo que recibimos de los demás. Incluso después de una tragedia devastadora, es posible crecer al encontrar un sentido más trascendente y dar más valor a nuestras vidas. Opción B nos enseña a ayudar a otras personas que se hallan en un momento de crisis, a desarrollar compasión por nosotros mismos, a criar hijos equilibrados, y a engendrar familias, comunidades y empresas resilientes. Y muchas de estas lecciones pueden aplicarse a nuestra lucha diaria para sobreponernos a cualquier contingencia que el futuro nos depare. Dos semanas después de perder a su marido, Sheryl debía prepararse para una actividad conjunta entre padres e hijos. «Quiero a Dave», se lamentó. Un amigo le respondió: «La opción A no es posible», pero le prometió ayudarla a encontrar la mejor Opción B. Todos vivimos algún tipo de Opción B. Y este libro nos ayudará a que sea la mejor opción posible. Reseñas:«Recomiendo este libro inspirador a todas las personas del mundo. Nadie puede evitar la tristeza, la pérdida o los reveses de la vida, así que la mejor opción es encontrar nuestra Opción B.»Malala Yousafzai, Premio Nobel de la Paz «Sheryl escribe sobre su propia experiencia desgarradora con una sinceridad poco habitual. Después, junto con Adam, convierte esta historia personal en una guía práctica y alentadora para cualquiera que intente desarrollar la resiliencia en su vida, comunidad o empresa. Ya es muy difícil llegar a los lectores. Pero lo es todavía más ayudarlos a dar pasos concretos hacia un futuro mejor. Opción B consigue ambas cosas.»Bill y Melinda Gates, copresidentes de la Fundación Bill & Melinda Gates

The Icarus Deception: How High Will You Fly?

by Seth Godin

In Seth Godin's most inspiring book, he challenges readers to find the courage to treat their work as a form of art Everyone knows that Icarus's father made him wings and told him not to fly too close to the sun; he ignored the warning and plunged to his doom. The lesson: Play it safe. Listen to the experts. It was the perfect propaganda for the industrial economy. What boss wouldn't want employees to believe that obedience and conformity are the keys to success? But we tend to forget that Icarus was also warned not to fly too low, because seawater would ruin the lift in his wings. Flying too low is even more dangerous than flying too high, because it feels deceptively safe. The safety zone has moved. Conformity no longer leads to comfort. But the good news is that creativity is scarce and more valuable than ever. So is choosing to do something unpredictable and brave: Make art. Being an artist isn't a genetic disposition or a specific talent. It's an attitude we can all adopt. It's a hunger to seize new ground, make connections, and work without a map. If you do those things you're an artist, no matter what it says on your business card. Godin shows us how it's possible and convinces us why it's essential.

As you journey from the temple of the Great Goddess at Ephesus to an amazing chance encounter on an airplane, from Dracula country in Transylvania to the astral realm of Luna, you’ll confirm that the doors to the otherworld open from wherever you are. You’ll see what it means to live on a mythic edge and to make a deal with your personal Death for a life extension. At any moment, you may fall, like the author, into the lap of a goddess or the jaws of an archetype.

The Fire Starter Sessions: A Soulful + Practical Guide to Creating Success on Your Own Terms

by Danielle Laporte

The Fire Starter Sessions is an apathy-kicking, integrity-infusing guide to defining success on your own terms. <P><P> As the creator of DanielleLaPorte.com--deemed "the best place online for kick-ass spirituality," Danielle LaPorte's straight-talk life-and-livelihood sermons have been read by over one million people.

You Are Enough: How To Elevate Your Thoughts, Align Your Energy & Get Out of the Comparison Trap

by Cassie Mendoza-Jones

You are Enough explores why we have become so worried about what other people think of us, and what our infatuation with comparison can cause on physical, mental, emotional and spiritual levels. If you are sick of striving, or feeling like a perfectionist comparer, here are the practical tools for getting out of the comparison trap, so that you can learn to accept yourself as you are, and revel in the sense of peace and ease that this brings. Are you sick of giving yourself a hard time? Have you had enough of comparing yourself to others? Do you feel that nothing you do is good enough? It doesn’t have to be this way. Because guess what? Your worth is innate—you can’t earn it with accomplishments or by hitting your goals … which means you can’t lose it when you think you haven’t done enough. It’s time to let go of the negative thoughts that keep telling you that you’ll only be more when you work harder … that keep you stuck, constantly comparing yourself to those around you. It’s time to understand what your body is trying to tell you when you’re burning out, pushing yourself to your limits, and chasing self-worth, achievements and perfectionism. You are enough. Knowing this starts with accepting yourself. And the shift to true self-acceptance is realising you’re already enough.

This Close to Happy: A Reckoning with Depression

by Daphne Merkin

<p>“Despair is always described as dull,” writes Daphne Merkin, “when the truth is that despair has a light all its own, a lunar glow, the color of mottled silver.” This Close to Happy—Merkin’s rare, vividly personal account of what it feels like to suffer from clinical depression—captures this strange light. <p>Daphne Merkin has been hospitalized three times: first, in grade school, for childhood depression; years later, after her daughter was born, for severe postpartum depression; and later still, after her mother died, for obsessive suicidal thinking. Recounting this series of hospitalizations, as well as her visits to myriad therapists and psychopharmacologists, Merkin fearlessly offers what the child psychiatrist Harold Koplewicz calls “the inside view of navigating a chronic psychiatric illness to a realistic outcome.” The arc of Merkin’s affliction is lifelong, beginning in a childhood largely bereft of love and stretching into the present, where Merkin lives a high-functioning life and her depression is manageable, if not “cured.” “The opposite of depression,” she writes with characteristic insight, “is not a state of unimaginable happiness . . . but a state of relative all-right-ness.” <p>In this dark yet vital memoir, Merkin describes not only the harrowing sorrow that she has known all her life, but also her early, redemptive love of reading and gradual emergence as a writer. Written with an acute understanding of the ways in which her condition has evolved as well as affected those around her, This Close to Happy is an utterly candid coming-to-terms with an illness that many share but few talk about, one that remains shrouded in stigma. In the words of the distinguished psychologist Carol Gilligan, “It brings a stunningly perceptive voice into the forefront of the conversation about depression, one that is both reassuring and revelatory.”</p>

Unlocking the 7 Secret Powers of the Heart: A Practical Guide to Living in Trust and Love

by Shai Tubali

An invitation to discover and develop your heart powers and tap into heart energy • Features accessible yet profound wisdom about the power of the heart and approaches for tapping into heart energy • Reveals that the heart, often perceived as our most vulnerable and fragile place, is in fact the source of our greatest potential • Supports individual heart-work by offering simple and practical exercises, meditations, and visualizations proven effective through many years of practice The heart is more often associated with vulnerability than hidden powers. We generally feel the need to protect our heart, building high walls after experiences of emotional pain and hurt. This response is unconscious, and since the modern world teaches us to rely on the brain to guide our life and actions, many of us find it hard to connect to the power and skills within our own hearts. Addressing the fears and feelings of insecurity that can arise and prevent us from opening up to the treasures we hold within, Shai Tubali reveals that the heart, often perceived as our most vulnerable and fragile place, is in fact the source of our greatest potential. Providing practical advice, exercises, meditations, and visualizations proven through his own heart-work practice, he shows how to tap into the heart’s energy field and easily activate its seven secret powers: wisdom, vulnerability, forgiveness, ability to love, infinite energy, transformation, and self-acceptance. He explains how our modern education system develops our mind perception only, focusing on the goal of being successful and urging us constantly to be faster and better. Not only does this not bring happiness and fulfilment, but it may even cause stress and illness. Showing how to transition from mind to heart perception, Tubali helps us understand more about our heart’s skills and how to implement its powers by healing inner energetic and emotional blockages. Calling for a change from one-sided mind perception and behavior, Tubali urges us to get in touch with our core and surrender completely to our heart energy, leaving all misconceptions behind and tearing down protective walls to discover our full potential. Unlocking the seven heart powers will lead to a deep sense of peace, balance, and fulfilment and enable you to approach life from a place of trust and love.
