- Real life : the journey from isolation to openness and freedom / by Salzberg, Sharon,author.;
"Merging the insights of inspiring voices with her own understanding of mindfulness, New York Times bestselling author Sharon Salzberg shows us how we can recover from the emotional effects of crisis. When confronted with pain and obstacles, we often shrink back and contract out of fear and disappointment. That can become a way of life. In Real Life, Sharon Salzberg lets us know it doesn't have to be that way. When we feel alone, cut off, or trapped, we can let those difficulties steer us onto a path toward an authentic, flourishing life--living in a way that allows us to find the wholeness that lies within. Even when we're alone, a sense of community can accompany us through the stormy times. Our words, hearts, and actions can line up with a larger vision, rather than the smaller views our anxious, fearful thoughts arouse in us. To live in a less constricted way--with a more spacious, open sense of possibility, creativity, connection, and joy--Salzberg says we need to get real about what's most important, to ask ourselves, "What do I most deeply yearn for?" "What would I benefit from letting go of?" "What do I believe is possible for me?" We accomplish the journey to expansive freedom (Real Life) through developing tools like mindful awareness, friendship, and a greater sense of purpose/aspiration. We learn to: take some risks with what we dare to imagine; take an interest in internal states we might normally try to avoid; and take an interest in people we might normally try to avoid Real Life is about the journey we make when we decide to live the life that speaks to our innermost longing to live free"--

- The art of doing : a guide to getting motivated, getting unstuck and getting it done / by Lipscombe, Jesse,author.;
How to embrace a life of curiosity, action, and adventure while still mastering your to-do list. The answer is yes: when the default response is no, or maybe another time, choose yes and open yourself to more opportunities for growth. Let love lead--everyday: point your energy and focus toward what you love about what you're doing instead of focusing on avoiding potential negative outcomes; life will sort out all the details along the way. Move from "have" to "get": when you realize you don't have to do anything, you get to, you'll unlock a whole new world of gratitude for who and where you are right now. Embrace a lobster life: a lobster sheds its shell when there is no more room to grow and sprouts a new one; when you find yourself too comfortable, ditch your safety shell to grow a bigger one in its place. Do the next easiest: when you have an idea but feel overwhelmed by how big the undertaking might be, do the next easiest thing; no matter how daunting, you can always find the next easiest thing to keep your project moving forward. Follow your drum: we all have a deep reason, an inner beat, to why we want to do anything; when things get hard and you want to jump ship, tune in to that internal drum to keep on moving.
