Stuck in Halftime: Reinvesting Your One and Only Life
by Bob BufordSince the release of Halftime in 1994, more than 150,000 people have purchased that book and begun a journey from success to significance.In a way that no one could have predicted, Halftime started a widespread movement viewing midlife as an opportunity rather than a crisis. It helped men and women between the ages of 35 and 50 realize they may have another thirty years of active, vibrant living ahead of them. And, according to author Buford, retirement is not the optimal option. But now, many of the people who began the journey from success to significance have found themselves sidetracked, stuck in the middle of their transition.Stuck in Halftime coaches readers how to get past the barriers that stand in their way to maturity and fulfillment. It outlines eight "myths of halftime" and explains the new set of rules for this second half of life's journey. Combining practical guidance with personal stories of people who have become "unstuck," Stuck in Halftime renews the vision and determination of those who heard the "still, small voice of God" calling them to a life of significance.

Studies in Emotion and Social Interaction: From Self to Social Relationships
by Van Zomeren MartijnWhat is it that moves and motivates us in our lives? Martijn van Zomeren proposes social relationships are at the essence of this key question and, in a fascinating investigation into human motivation, he develops a novel and integrative psychological theory termed 'selvations theory'. The theory suggests that we are essentially relational beings that seek to regulate relationships in response to felt changes in our network of relationships (selvations). However, we need to do this in culturally appropriate ways and this is where our culturally construed self comes to be of use. From Self to Social Relationships constitutes a powerful argument about human essence, integrating major theories in and around psychology, which has strong implications for the study and practice of social motivation.

Study Hacks: Study Hacks for Better Grades
by Miguel M. Macieira Mike BrandishMany books and articles were written to explain the simplest and most effective ways to study. The fact that many resources were already spent in this process, shows that studying can be hard work. However, it doesn't need to be. Despite the available methods nowadays not being useful for everyone, it is always possible to count with a trial and error method to identify ways that ease our journey towards knowledge and learning. The methods presented here don´t substitute the effort needed to achieve higher grades and be approved in tests and contests, but each useful idea available to achieve those goals is welcome since the process of learning is frequently tiresome. In this book, we compiled in the first part the basic orientations for students to develop better and faster in the tasks they perform; and, in the second part, we bring specific hints, such as tips to put in practice "emergency plans" for exams. May the reader choose which method he sees fit, put in practice the hints and see which ones work for you.

Stuff That Sucks: Accepting what you can't change and committing to what you can (The\instant Help Solutions Ser.)
by Ben SedleyEach of us has thoughts that are painful at times; sometimes the pain is sadness, sometimes worry or anger or shame or grief or some feeling that you don't even have words for. If you are a young person struggling with your emotions, you do not want to be told that 'everyone feels like that' or that 'you will grow out of it'. You want to feel that your emotions are valid and that the person offering help truly understands how painful life can feel at times. With a strong emphasis on validation and compassion, Stuff That Sucks encourages you to accept your emotions rather than struggling against them. It also shows how to reconnect with what is really important to you, giving you the tools to help clarify your personal values and take steps towards living a life where those values can guide you in your day-to-day behaviour.
