LIT: Life Ignition Tools Use Nature's Playbook to Energize Your Brain, Spark Ideas, and Ignite Action [electronic resource] : by Karp, Jeff.aut; Barker, Teresa.aut; cloudLibrary;

Radically simple experimental tools to help anyone tap into a high-energy brain state to fire up innovative potential and shape their lives with intention—by the founder of a Harvard biomedical engineering innovation lab. In an age of convenience and information overload, it’s easy to go through the motions, pressured, distracted, and seeking instant gratification rather than harnessing our potential for meaningful and impactful lives. When we’re accustomed to a low energy brain state and lulled by the comfort zone it creates, it’s difficult to rouse ourselves to act with intention and create the lives we truly want to lead.  In LIT, Jeff Karp, Ph.D., professor at Brigham and Women’s Hospital, Harvard Medical School, and biotech innovator, helps us look to nature as a vital source of humankind’s best wisdom, most inspired action, and greatest good. Diagnosed with learning differences at a young age, he persisted through nearly insurmountable struggles with support from his mom in developing ways to achieve hyper-awareness and maximize decisions based on his curiosity, passion, creativity, and connection to nature. As a student at McGill University and at the University of Toronto, as a researcher at MIT, and as a professor at Harvard Medical School, he evolved these approaches into LIT (Life Ignition Tools) —and road-tested these tools daily in his own personal life and with his lab team to innovate medical discoveries inspired by the “problem solving” process they find throughout the natural world LIT teaches us to: turn inward and connect with what is truly important to us turn outward to act on that, connecting with others and different ways of knowing question assumptions—break out of habitual thinking and other patterns to discover what really serves you best navigate multiple streams of sensory input and manage information overload recognize manipulative messaging that can throw us off course explore, experiment and discover fresh approaches to old challenges intercept routine patterns to actively think and decide versus just jumping in with habitual responses LIT takes us off autopilot and helps us stay alert, present, and fully engaged in our lives.  Dr. Karp also shares insights from some of the world’s most accomplished people, including Nobel Prize winners, the founder of an Indigenous wellness center, a visionary photographer, a social justice activist, a five-time US memory champion, an Olympic medalist, a neurosurgeon who founded a center for compassion, and numerous professors, inventors, entrepreneurs, CEOs, and members of his laboratory—all creatives in their own ways. Using Dr. Karp’s principles, anyone can redirect their lives with energy, focus, creativity, motivation, intention, and impact to create the lives they truly want to lead. Learning to be lit is the ultimate renewable energy and is accessible to everyone, anytime, wherever you are.

Joyful Recollections of Trauma [electronic resource] : by Scheer, Paul.aut; cloudLibrary;

From award-winning actor and comedian Paul Scheer, a candid and hilarious memoir-in-essays on coming to terms with childhood trauma and finding the joy in embracing your authentic self. Paul Scheer has entertained countless fans and podcast listeners with stories about the odd, wild, and absurd details of his life. Yet these tales have pointed to deeper, more difficult truths that the actor and comedian has kept to himself. Now, he is finally ready to share those truths for the first time—but, of course, with a healthy dose of humor. Blending the confident, affable voice that has won him a dedicated following with a refreshing level of candor, Joyful Recollections of Trauma chronicles Paul’s often shocking, admittedly tumultuous childhood and how the experiences of his youth have reverberated throughout his life. In his comedy, Paul has always been unafraid to “go there,” to play naïve, cringeworthy characters, imbuing them with disarming charm and humanity. That daring openness is on display in the pages of this memoir, but in true Paul fashion, it is also surprising, eye-opening, and side-splitting. In this madcap journey through the inner working of his mind and creative process, Paul Scheer demonstrates once again that the truth is often stranger—and funnier—than fiction. Joyful Recollections of Trauma offers a unique perspective on universal themes: growing up, working through a challenging childhood, staying true to yourself, and finding success, fulfillment, and happiness in often strange and difficult circumstances. Throughout, Paul shares both the hard-fought lessons and the laughter that can be found in the darkest parts of life, and reminds us that what matters is not what you’ve been through but who you are becoming. If you loved recent memoirs by Molly Shannon, Maria Bamford, RuPaul, and Jennette McCurdy—or any book that moves you to both laughter and tears—Joyful Recollections of Trauma is the perfect read for you.

"A follow-up to its bestselling predecessor, The reason I jump opens an extraordinary, rare window into the mind and world of an autistic, non-verbal person -- now coping with a young man's life. Naoki Higashida wrote The reason I jump as a 13-year-old boy with severe autism, giving us all insight into a world never before open to us. Now he shares his thoughts and experiences as a 24-year-old. Based on his hugely successful blogs in Japan, he gives us, in short powerful chapters, his moving, beautiful insights into life, identity, education, his family, our society, and personal growth. He allows readers to experience profound moments we take for granted, like the thought-steps necessary for him to register that it's raining outside. Introduced by award-winning author David Mitchell (co-translator with his wife KA Yoshida), this book is part memoir, part critique of a world that sees disabilities ahead of the individual, part self-portrait-in-progress of a young man who happens to have autism and wants to help us understand his world better"--

Big money energy : how to rule at work, dominate at life, and make millions / by Serhant, Ryan,author.;

"We all know someone who exudes "Big Money Energy." Big Money Energy is the vibe you get from someone who is massively succeeding at life in every direction. A person with Big Money Energy is the ultimate picture of self-confidence. There's no bravado, no bragging - they know they have BME and so does everyone else. It's totally obvious. People who possess Big Money Energy get that way because they are 100% committed to making their vision for themselves a reality, and their vision is big. If you have BME, you never stop learning, earning, and growing. When you meet someone with BME, you can't help but want to be around them. They're confident but never cocky. They understand that the path to success is paved with hard work, gratitude, patience and experience. A person with BME knows there is no value in acting like an asshole, only a person with Bullshit Money Energy would do that. A person with genuine BME plays it like they already have the money in their pocket. In this book, national bestselling author and Bravo real estate star Ryan Serhant shows us all how we can start projecting that Big Money Energy in our own lives and turn our financial dreams into financial realities. He shows how he landed his first big client and went from "surviving to thriving"--from under $10k a year to $1m in just three years. Whether it's school, a relationship, a first job, or running your own business--everyone starts from the bottom and eventually climb to the top via hard work, savvy, and experience. With BME, Serhant shows how readers can climb that ladder better and faster, by changing how they look, how they talk, what they believe, and their attitude towards life and money. Among other things, Big Money Energy will give you the tools you need to: nail a first impression, abolish "low-rent habits", expand your network (and cut off the negative relationships holding you back), remove distractions, set (and beat!) reachable goals, structure work days around success and growth, excel during challenging periods, and branch out their sources of revue. At its core, Big Money Energy is an inspirational, prescriptive manual intended for anyone who is ambitious enough to dream big and committed to doing whatever it takes to get there. In other words, if you're ready to earn a better income, stand out in job interviews, shine at social events, shoot straight to the top at work, or even crush first dates with a cool BME-infused confidence-then, this is just the book for you"--

Emotional agility : get unstuck, embrace change, and thrive in work and life / by David, Susan A.;

Includes bibliographical references and index."The counterintuitive approach to achieving your true potential, heralded by the Harvard Business Review as a groundbreaking idea of the year. The path to fulfillment, whether at work or at home, is almost never a straight line. Ask anyone who has achieved their biggest goals or who thrives in their relationships, and you'll hear stories of many unexpected detours along the way. What separates those who rise to these challenges and those who get derailed? The answer is agility--emotional agility. Emotional agility is a four-step approach that allows us to navigate life's twists and turns with self-acceptance, clear-sightedness, and an open mind. In her more than twenty years of research, Susan David has found that no matter how intelligent, resilient, or creative people are, when they ignore how situations or interactions make them feel, they miss opportunities to gain insight, getting hooked by thoughts, emotions, and habits that prevent them from reaching their full potential. Emotionally agile people experience the same stresses and setbacks as anyone else, but they know how to adapt, aligning their actions with their values and making small changes that lead to a life of growth. Drawing on her extensive professional research, her international consulting work, and her own experiences growing up in Apartheid-era South Africa and losing her father at a young age, David shows how anyone can become more emotionally agile and thrive in an uncertain world. Written with authority, wit, and empathy, Emotional Agility will help you live your most successful life, whoever you are and whatever you face"--Provided by publisher.LSC
