Publisher's Summary:

Learn to gain a stronger awareness of life and achieve more on a daily basis with the power of focus.

We are often pushed like the wind from one task to the next and regularly lose our way in life. This can be all changed with simple adjustments and a change in habits.

Learn to create daily goals

How to Create Our Daily Goals

You're busy. I'm busy. Everyone's busy. Yet despite this bustle, we regularly don't feel especially productive from day to day. Entire weeks can flash by in a blur of meaningless emails, conferences, and admin tasks while the massive stuff is going untended.

As the 19th-century philosopher Henry David Thoreau wrote, "It isn't enough to be busy. So are the ants. The question is: What are we busy about?" If we want to take back control of our workday schedules and priorities, the simplest way to do it is by way of relentlessly wondering how we're spending our time. However, what questions ought we ask?

The key here is control of attention. We're so distracted, and we're feeding that feeling on every occasion we switch between responsibilities. We need to (re)educate our attention. Focused interest can serve obligations - that's the left hemisphere at work, doing rational, deductive, logical, step-by-step questioning.

The other sort of attention, which serves creativity, is where the right hemisphere is dominant. That calls for deeply quieting the thoughts. It was Betty Edwards (drawing on the proper aspect of the mind) who located that one powerful manner to prompt a shift from left to the right hemisphere is to copy an upside-down line drawing. Or to genuinely count to a certain number.

But there are lots of approaches to activate the shift: take a walk in nature, go for a run, and concentrate on a classical tune...even take a bath. It's repetition that causes the shift. The more we teach any muscle - which includes the right hemisphere - the more potent and livelier it becomes.

This all can be achieved here with the change of habit. You can very easily tap in to your power of great focus.

Title: From Shy to Hi: Tame Social Anxiety, Meet New People and Build Self-Confidence

Subtitle: How to Change Your Life in 10 Minutes a Day, Book 5

Author: Michal Stawicki

Narrator: Dan Culhane

Format: Unabridged

Length: 2 hrs and 15 mins

Publisher: Gutenberg Reloaded

Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 6 votes

Genres: Self Development, Motivation & Inspiration

Publisher's Summary:

The quiet masses: the curse of being shy

Shyness exists in every corner of the world, every level of society, every workplace and school; in boardrooms, bars, churches and bus stops; in places large and small. The digital age, with all the interconnection it offers, has only made things worse. For those living under the shyness curse, life can be discomforting at best and terrifying at worst. While many people experiencing social anxiety simply resign themselves to the fact and retreat from social interaction, this need not be the case.

Okay, so I am shy. So what? That's just who I am. While shyness may seem just as much a part of you as your elbow, the difference between your elbow and your shyness is that you weren't born with your shyness. It was cultivated and fostered over the years (quite possibly unknowingly) through the processes of your (sneaky) mind. There is good news here for you. You might never succeed at thinking away your elbow, but you can apply your mind's amazing power to banish your social anxiety for good!

I've tried overcoming my shyness before; I am just not sure it's worth it. Okay, so there are shy people who live content lives despite their affliction. But how many of them could honestly claim to have lived truly full and rewarding lives? Experiencing the full richness and beauty of our world requires some measure of confidence and the ability to create real, meaningful human relationships. In addition to receiving what others have to offer, those comfortable interacting with new people are also able to give of themselves in enriching ways. Such symbiosis requires the ability to reach out to others, to trust the unknown. But that unknown, that's the uncomfortable part. And that is okay!

Growth often requires stepping outside of your comfort zone. Author Michal Stawicki knows this firsthand and has seen the extraordinary results.

Title: The Book of Not Knowing

Subtitle: Exploring the True Nature of Self, Mind, and Consciousness

Author: Peter Ralston, Laura Ralston - editor

Narrator: Keith O'Brien

Format: Unabridged

Length: 19 hrs and 44 mins

Language: English

Release date: 04-25-17

Publisher: North Atlantic Books

Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 22 votes

Genres: Self Development, Motivation & Inspiration

Publisher's Summary:

Over decades of martial arts and meditation practice, Peter Ralston discovered a curious and paradoxical fact: that true awareness arises from a state of not knowing. Even the most sincere investigation of self and spirit, he says, is often sabotaged by our tendency to grab too quickly for answers and ideas as we retreat to the safety of the known. This "Hitchhiker's Guide to Awareness" provides helpful guideposts along an experiential journey for those Western minds predisposed to wandering off to old habits, cherished presumptions, and a stubbornly solid sense of self. With ease and clarity Ralston teaches listeners how to become aware of the background patterns that they are usually too busy, stressed, or distracted to notice. The Book of Not Knowing points out the ways people get stuck in their lives and offers listeners a way to make fresh choices about every aspect of their lives, from a place of awareness instead of autopilot.

Critic Reviews:

"True innovators are, by definition, ahead of their time. Therefore, they remain largely unrecognized, except by a few. How many of us wish we had met Bruce Lee, sat in a session with Carl Jung, or walked around Walden Pond with Thoreau? Too late for that, but not too late to take notice of Peter Ralston. His creativity, commitment, and clarity shine through as he articulates higher principles based on direct experience and piercing insight. A caring teacher, he has been to the mountaintop and bathed in the spring of Being. His insights speak to us all." (Dan Millman, author of Way of the Peaceful Warrior)

Title: Micro-Resilience

Publisher's Summary:

Learn powerful science-based techniques to boost focus, drive, and energy hour by hour throughout the day - every day.

As leadership consultants and executive trainers, Bonnie St. John and Allen P. Haines have heard the same complaints from clients for years: periodic burnout, lack of focus, and low energy. So they dug in to the latest research on neuroscience, psychology, and physiology, looking for big answers. Instead they found small answers - proof that small adjustments in daily routines, including thought patterns, food and drink, rest, and movement, can fight the forces that sap our energy and store focus and drive. They call these amazing efficient restorative techniques "micro-resilience". Thousands of men and women from all walks of life have already found effortless ways to incorporate these little changes into the busiest of schedules. Dozens of entertaining anecdotes from real people using micro-resilience demonstrate that when our brains fire faster, our energy increases, and we can cope with almost any surprise, pressure, or crisis.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying reference material will be available in your Library section along with the audio.

Critic Reviews:

"Bonnie St. John has focused on how to increase hour-by-hour resilience, which is critical in today's world. Her approach integrates science-based, intentional, and immediate recoveries and has broad application to health care and other service industries that count on teams to deliver their best. Micro-Resilience is a great example of a 21st-century solution to meet our 21st-century challenges and opportunities." (Bernard J. Tyson, chairman and CEO, Kaiser Permanente)

"Micro-Resilience is a transformative program that doesn't force you to change, but instead enhances the resources you already have to give you much more focus and energy." (Walter Isaacson, author of Steve Jobs, CEO Aspen Leadership Institute, former CEO of CNN and TIME magazine)

"We may learn best from our failures. But our successes require that we reach down deep and muster the resilience to act on what we have learned. In Micro-Resilience, Bonnie St. John and Allen Haines not only inspire us that we can be better, they illuminate the path forward." (Gary Heil, founder of The Center for Innovative Leadership)
