Publisher's Summary:

With Instaread Summaries, you can get the summary of a book in 30 minutes or less. We read every chapter, summarize and analyze it for your convenience. This is an Instaread Summary of The Gifts of Imperfection: Let Go of Who You Think You're Supposed to Be and Embrace Who You Are by Brene Brown. Below is a preview of the earlier sections of the summary.

Chapter 1 - It is necessary to practice courage, compassion, and connection on a daily basis in order to develop worthiness. It is a mistake to try and win someone over, because it means trading in the sense of self in search of approval from another. By doing this, people stop believing in their own worth. The first step toward living wholeheartedly is for people to have the courage to reach out to others and to share their own stories of shame. When in need of compassion, people should reach out to the right person, someone who supports them whether they are feeling strong or whether they are struggling. When people are willing to reveal that they are imperfect and real, their relationships are strengthened. They make a connection. This is why courage, compassion, and connection are the gifts of imperfection.

Courage is displayed when people are willing to speak honestly and openly about who they are, what they are feeling, and their experiences both good and bad. Courage is about being vulnerable. It takes courage for someone to ask for what he or she needs and to risk disappointment. When one person has courage, it can create a ripple effect, making others around that person a little braver. Compassion is a relationship between two equals. It occurs when people recognize they share humanity with others. The heart of compassion is acceptance by people of themselves and of others. In order for compassion to occur, people need to set boundaries and hold others accountable for their behavior. The key to compassion is being able to separate people from their behaviors.

my first Instaread book summary. narration ok but not great. Good layout with take - aways etc. However much duplication and repetition with this format. may try another depending on title. much better to read book, which it does recommend.

Good summary but too fast!

Would you try another book from Instaread Summaries and/or Jason P. Hilton?

no, but unfortunately I purchased two others so will need to listen to those as well.

If youve listened to books by Instaread Summaries before, how does this one compare?

This book was read WAY too fast. Hard to follow!

What didnt you like about Jason P. Hiltons performance?

Too fast. MOnotonous voice.

Was The Gifts of Imperfection by Brene Brown: A 30-minute Instaread Summary worth the listening time?

yes, because the content is good but doesn't sink in because it was read way too fast

Any additional comments?

Moves way to fast.

not Likely to buy another summary by insta-read

The best-selling psychotherapist and author of The Power of Kindness offers a concrete program for developing the will - a faculty we greatly need to face lifes hurdles and to embark on our most meaningful projects All of us experience periods of gloom, fear, and uncertainty. But we each possess deep reserves of inner strength and wisdom for dealing with such setbacks. Indeed, it is the very arrival of darkened circumstances that can summon our untapped energies. In Your Inner Will, therapist and philosopher Piero Ferrucci explores how to play on the iron chords of our interior selves. In this stirring and deeply practical work, Ferrucci provides a full program for the cultivation of the will by employing insights from classical mythology and wisdom teachings, neuroscience research, case studies, and psychological exercises. Chapters include: "Mastery", "Autonomy", "Freedom", "Courage", "Integrity", and "Resilience". Ferrucci describes the pitfalls we face when our inner strength is lacking, and shows us what we can expect when it is healthfully developed. An effective will can guide us in our search for inner freedom; it helps us to take risks and to renew ourselves; it makes us feel strong and confident. Your Inner Will is an immensely practical study that helps listeners navigate crises and pursue more purposeful lives.

Members Reviews:

Very Basic

Is there anything you would change about this book?

Perhaps the error is mine. Perhaps I selected the wrong book. I was looking for something deeper. This book offers beginners a framework for the theories on emotional intelligence but it does not offer any substance on how to use these concepts in difficult circumstances.

Would you recommend Emotional Intelligence to your friends? Why or why not?

Only to a person who was not familiar with the ground work and terminology used to understand and describe basic emotional intelligence. I would not recommend it to anyone who understood the framework but needed guidance in maintaining emotional health in times of true adversity.

Who would you have cast as narrator instead of Karen Cass?

Karen's voice was very pleasant to listen to.

Was Emotional Intelligence worth the listening time?

It was a good reminder of what I already know.

Any additional comments?

A good overview of the elements of emotional intelligence with sound, easy to understand examples.

Great insight!

Very powerful words and thought provoking. The book itself helps you to look into your inner self and rediscover your "Passions" and true emotions and how to manage and not suppress. Very good read.

Food for thought

I really enjoyed listening to this book and have learnt so much about my feelings and emotions. The readers voice was perfect ! Very good at expressing the words without going over the top and the pace of her reading was perfect ...& she had a lush voice !!

Thought provoking

Really good tips in how to engage and think through challenges.

Title: Controlling Your Emotions

Author: John Stewart Rushton

Narrator: John Stewart Rushton

Format: Unabridged

Length: 42 mins

Language: English

Release date: 12-09-13

Publisher: The Life Alchemist Ltd

Ratings: 1 of 5 out of 1 votes

Genres: Self Development, Motivation & Inspiration

Publisher's Summary:

Emotions enhance our life walk. We have love, joy, happiness, with love being the greatest and most effective emotion we have. We also have the opposite emotions: anger, hatred, greed, envy, pride, etc, all of which will bring us down.

If we believe in God, then there is but pure love; if we believe in anything else, then it's the Devil - the antithasis of all that's good. And if we impose conditions on love, then that is our downfall too.

Wisdom, compassion, and understanding go a long way to us seeing the "bigger picture" in life, as does education. Hence in poor countries they remain that way as they know no better.

If we do not control our emotions, they will control us. Our emotions come from the same place - the brain - the place that all of our functions come from. If we make excuses, such as "if you knew what I'd been through" or "I had to do it" or "they made me" or whatever, then you are giving away your authority to others or some ficticious third party called "they".

Going or getting hysterica, such as Middle Eastern people do predominantly, is a lacking in character, hence they remain substandard and unreliable. (Go there and find out yourself).

Even some people closer to home prefer to hide behind an emotion they have allowed to develop than to see reason. It is a total weakness of character. You can never trust such people, as when the going gets tough they go to pieces.

This audio download is for those who want more control of themselves, as well as clarity and strength to deal with the selfish morons who always use hysteria, tears, or anything else to try and get their way - the losers in life.
