Thomas K: What's True About You

What's True About You

7 Steps to Move Beyond Your Painful Past and Manifest Your Brightest Future

Indecision is a fact of life.We can't decide what film to watch, dinner to make or wine to buy. We hesitate before committing to romantic relationships and then again before breaking up. We worry about how best to invest our money, time, and energy. In contrast, we admire those individuals who can make quick decisions and stick to them with ease.But what if the line we've been sold - that indecision is bad, unhelpful, weak - is wrong?In this ground-breaking book, two leading psychologists upend the traditional decision mindset and reveal the hidden benefits of staying undecided. Drawing on the latest neuroscience and a wealth of examples from current affairs, history and popular culture, Ophelia Deroy and Bahador Bahrami provide fresh insight on everything from online dating and parenting to the gig economy and the way we vote. In so doing, they reveal that our obsession with decision-making does us more harm than good. Offering a radical, and often counterintuitive, new perspective on our everyday predicaments, Indecision encourages us to cultivate the power of an unresolved mind for happier, healthier lives.

It is seldom, if ever, that readers and writers see the different stages of a piece of writing in progress. In this unique volume, 16 of the US's most distinguished writers pull back the curtain on their creative and revision processes whilst drafting their works of creative nonfiction. Using side-by-side examples of first drafts and final versions of their writing, including original full-page reproductions from the writers' personal notebooks, an original, illuminating essay accompanies each draft that recounts the journey from inspiration to completion. Offering a generous insight into the creative process from the rough bold strokes to refined, clear, elegant prose, this behind-the-scenes look delves into the creative minds of working writers, including African American, Latino, Asian American, and indigenous writers from across the US. An invaluable resource for students and instructors looking to enliven the classroom or just offering practicing writers a peak into the processes of their peers, this book presents the false starts and missteps, the self-editing, tinkering, cutting, rearranging, and craft working writers make in the plight for perfectly polished prose. With nothing like it on the market, The Art of Revising Creative Nonfiction is an enlightening and unparalleled collection of modern-day creativity in action, a must have for aspiring writers and teachers of all levels.

The Art of Revising Creative Nonfiction

Clozapine as the Gold Standard: A Story of Hope for Patients, Families and Clinicians is a fascinating look at the convoluted development and clinical journey of clozapine, and a compelling argument for greater accessibility for millions of patients worldwide likely to benefit from this highly effective antipsychotic and suicide prevention medication. It is about hope, perseverance and the continuing fight to bring this often life-changing drug to those who need it.The book is written by two key figures in the clozapine saga: the researcher who developed it for US release and a psychiatrist who early advocated for its use. Vivid case vignettes illustrate real-life struggles by patients and families against the terrible scourge of severe mental illness, and their often-frustrated efforts to get meaningful help. It explains the need for clozapine, the barriers to and hope for effective treatment-the good, sometimes the bad and occasionally the ugly-in terms everyone can understand. It bridges the gap between patients and families and the doctors who must make every effort to offer those patients the most effective treatment available.This book should help huge numbers of patients and every mental health professional and clinical trainee who doesn't know the whole story. It is for anyone who cares about the struggle of those living with schizophrenia or a similar disorder - loved ones, mental health advocates, clinicians, and patients.

Grenzüberschreitung der Kreativität - das schöpferische Selbst

What if the biggest obstacle to solving our problems is nothing more than a failure to believe that we can?Rick Caruso has spent his life stepping optimistically into places where other people see no way forward by asking a deceptively simple question: What can we do to make this better? From his appointment as Commissioner to the Los Angeles Department of Water and Power and later the City's troubled Police Department, to the creation of his bold and innovative real estate ventures including L.A.'s world-renowned retail center The Grove, Caruso built a reputation for finding steadfast solutions even in the face of staunch adversity. By employing the great teachers of experience and curiosity, he continues to do what he can to improve Los Angeles, the city he loves, and in Breaking New Ground, he shares lessons learned along the way--while offering us all a path forward to a better future.Again and again, Caruso discovered that breakthroughs rarely come from knowing everything at the outset. They come from asking better questions, bringing the right people into the room, listening without ego, separating ideology from reality, and refusing to give up until workable solutions emerge. Ultimately, they require a steadfast dedication to the belief that there is always a solution and that defeat is not an option.Breaking New Ground is the story of how his philosophy was forged--from the examples of immigrant grandparents and a father who lost one fortune and built another, to Caruso's own successes, failures, public battles, family life, faith, and unexpected turns through business and government.Caruso is less interested in prescribing a formula for becoming successful than in exploring how successful problem-solvers think: how they distinguish what matters from what merely makes noise; how they balance conviction with compromise; how they recognize when conventional wisdom has stopped working; and how they remain fearless enough to see difficult decisions through.Part memoir, part argument, and part blueprint for action, Breaking New Ground offers a timely proposition for anyone confronting a problem that feels too complicated, entrenched, or divisive to solve.There is always another way forward. Sometimes you simply have to be willing to build it.

It’s Not too Late to Build Toward a Better Future!

The Power of Finding Steadfast Solutions

Breaking New Ground

A provocative exposé of how our attention, behavior, and desires have been co-opted by the “choice box”—a curated set of options that offer a false sense of agency while funneling us down pre-determined paths controlled by a select few Choice boxes are all around us, but chances are you’ve never noticed them. Every time you click on a recommended video, rate an Uber driver, run a Google search, or invest in your 401k, you may think you’re the one calling the shots—but in reality, you’re limited to making the choices that a corporation wants you to make. Today, structured decision-making governs our lives to such an extent that we hardly see it at all. But who designs these choices, and whose interests do they serve? In Choose Your Captivity, historian Eli Cook introduces readers to the choice architects who first built these boxes and trapped us inside—from the maze-building eugenicist who invented the multiple-choice test to the marketing gurus who sold off our supermarket shelves to a few ultra-processed food giants. In less than a generation, architects like these have transformed a handful of online platforms into the richest businesses in the world. And by determining our options, controlling our actions, and even shaping our identities, they have laid the groundwork&nbsp;for the winner-takes-all game of digital capitalism that dominates us today. In a society built around the promise of free choice and personal responsibility, Cook argues, these hidden architects might just have the greatest power of all. A propulsive and vivid history, Choose Your Captivity opens readers’ eyes to the immense power of the choice box—and how to escape it.
