7 Ways to Lead: Evolve Professionally & Personally
by Andre Young<p>A common sense guide to becoming a better leader and achieving a healthy work/life balance in order to live your best life.<p> <p>The number one complaint from many companies is “Our leaders don’t know how to lead!” Why would they? Most people are promoted because they did one thing really well or outlasted their “addicted to average” co-workers/teammates, not because they knew how to lead. Andre Young’s favorite example is “You sold a million dollars worth of product . . . You are now the Sales Manager.” They haven’t proved they can manage or lead anyone; they’ve only proven they can sell a million dollars worth of product . . . their way.<p> <p>Work/Life Harmony is more important now than it’s ever been. The notion of leaving home at the door before entering work and leaving work at the door when entering home is obsolete. The fact that cell phones are always accessible means significant others, relationships, and outside life now enter work with every employee . . . ALL DAY. So, when things are bad intimately, parentally, and socially, it shows up at work with employees trying to do their job in between responding to ten pages of “Hate Texts.” In contrast, when that same employee returns home, their phone may continue to ring with work emails, work texts, etc. If they respond, they’ve effectively communicated it’s okay to invade their time. If they don’t, it doesn’t erase the anxiety of not responding or knowing a pile of work is building up. There may not be a true balance between both realms, but 7 Ways to Lead helps leaders find and create harmony between the two.<p>

75 Beats to a Happy Heart
by Jackie Madden HaughAs a little girl, Jackie Madden Haugh was taught by her parents that there were two types of heartbeats: one that served as the life force within the physical frame, sending blood and oxygen to all parts of the body, and another that resided in the spirit, a mystical pulse that nourished the soul. But, it wasn’t until Jackie became a caregiver to both her parents in their declining years, and suffered through a divorce, hat she discovered the true way to feed the soul was by living a life in constant gratitude. Being thankful for all the wonders in life is easy, that takes no effort. But, when we’re appreciative for the challenges and heartbreaks thrown our way, for those are our lessons, we’re lead down the winding road to our great becoming; who we were born to be. 75 Beats to a Happy Heart are universal inspirational, funny, and tender short stories from Jackie’s column in the Los Altos Town Crier. By looking for joy in the minutia of her days; those special moments that make a heart pause and reflect, Jackie found the rhythmic, spiritual tapping, that beating pulse that nurtured and fed her soul.
75 consejos para sobrevivir en el campamento. Manual patentado por mí misma (y por María Frisa) para hacerte la vida más fácil
by María FrisaLa vida a los 12 años puede ser bastante difícil: eres la única sin Facebook, tu ropa es un asco, no tienes novio y tus padres te meten en un campamento de verano sin ni siquiera consultarte... Por eso he patentado este manual: si yo sobreviví, tu también puedes lograrlo. <P><P>Sara anhela desesperadamente poder asistir al campamento de Inglés que organiza su escuela en vacaciones... al menos eso le ha dicho a sus padres; si fuera por ella, se quedaría en casa viendo la tele y jugando videojuegos durante todo el verano. Pero como sabe que esa no es una opción, ha decidido aplicar la psicología inversa: pedir que la envíen a ese campamento carísimo para que le nieguen el capricho y así pueda quedarse en casa. <P>Desafortunadamente, las cosas no salen como lo planeó y sus padres, esta vez, deciden que harán un esfuerzo y la mandarán a ese campamento, como un premio y para que pueda conocer y convivir con nuevos chicos, pero y ¿qué pasa con sus enemigos? Sara lo tiene claro: si va al campamento tendrá cerca a Marina y a Pollo, sus mejores amigos, pero también tendrá que convivir con la odiosa de Rebeca y su séquito. <P>Una vez que llega al campamento decide que quizá estar lejos de casa y de su hermana menor no sea tan malo aunque la comida sea incomible, los baños pareciera que son una broma, las tiendas de campaña parezcan de pitufos, las clases de inglés seam horribles y su peor enemiga resulte que no es tan mala como el chico al que acaba de conocer, un tal Hugo. Aún así, intentará que este sea el mejor verano de sus vidas. ¿Podrá Sara salirse con la suya?
7: An Experimental Mutiny Against Excess (Updated and Revised)
by Jen HatmakerWhy do we pursue more when we'd be happier with less? This is the story of how New York Times bestselling author Jen Hatmaker and her family tried to combat overindulgence—and what they learned about living a truly meaningful life along the way.Do you feel trapped in the machine of excess? Jen Hatmaker was. Her friends were. And some might say that our culture is. Jen once considered herself unmotivated by the lure of prosperity, but after she was called &“rich&” by an undeniably poor child, evidence to the contrary mounted and a social experiment turned spiritual journey was born. 7 is the true story of how Jen (along with her husband and her children) took seven months, identified seven areas of excess, and made seven simple choices to fight back against the modern-day diseases of materialism and overindulgence: food, clothes, possessions, media and technology, spending, waste, and stress. So, what&’s the payoff from living a deeply reduced life? It&’s the discovery of a greatly increased God—a call toward Christ-like simplicity and generosity that transcends a social experiment to become a radically better life. Revised and updated to reflect newer challenges of modern life, 7 is funny, raw, and not a guilt trip in the making, so come along and consider what Jesus&’ version of rich, blessed, and generous might look like in your life.

8 Keys to Building Your Best Relationships (8 Keys to Mental Health)
by Babette Rothschild Daniel A. HughesBringing attachment theory essentials to everyday life. A revolution is under way in how we understand the nature of relationships, how we develop in those relationships, and how our brains function synergistically in connection with others.

Here veteran therapist and specialist in attachment disorders Daniel A. Hughes demystifies the research for lay people. By summarizing in short, easy-to-read "keys" the theory and brain science that underpin our ability to form relationships, he skillfully reveals how we can become better friends, spouses, siblings, and children.

8 Keys to Eliminating Passive-Aggressiveness (8 Keys to Mental Health)
by Babette Rothschild Andrea BrandtGuidance for dealing with this common and frustrating form of behavior. Many people often say "yes" to something when they'd rather say "no." They offer cooperation through words but follow up with how they really feel--in actions that contradict their words. That's passive-aggression. At its heart, passive-aggression is about being untrue to oneself, which makes it impossible to have a clean relationship with others. Passive-aggression as a communication method doesn't make someone "bad." It is simply a strategy learned in childhood as a coping mechanism, a hard-to-break habit. Changing passive-aggressive behavior requires knowledge, tools, and practice, as outlined here. The book offers effective methods for transforming passive-aggression into healthy assertiveness to communicate in constructive ways through eight keys: Recognize Your Hidden Anger; Reconnect Your Emotions to Your Thoughts; Listen to Your Body; Set Healthy Boundaries; Communicate Assertively; Interact Using Mindfulness; Disable the Enabler; and Problem-Solve for Better Outcomes. Hands-on exercises are featured, enabling readers to better understand themselves.
