Talking to Myself
by Marshall Saper"Let us get one thing straight. Nothing that I have written in these pages is designed to turn your life around. Nor do these articles contain exotic psychological information that will lead you to the promised land of happiness and fulfillment. If there is anything that the reading public does not need, it is additional expert advice on weight reduction or emotional self-help. Why, then, am I taking to the typewriter? Because I am talking to myself, and it would look odd if I did so verbally. By pounding out my ideas on a typewriter, I can pretend to be an author and at the same time clarify my own thoughts on the increasing public impact of my profession, psychology."

The Magic Diamond: Jung's 8 Paths For Self-Coaching
by Dario NardiWho are you really? That is, how do you operate? And what is your best route to up your level in life? A century ago, the famous Swiss psychiatrist Dr. C.G. Jung described eight ways people function. Like right versus left handedness, we develop preferences—our gifts. But what’s next? First, we can nurture our gifts. We can also deal with our shadowy blind-spots and chart a path that continually completes the pattern of who we are. Jung predicted how the brain works: We start largely undifferentiated and grow with biases, then conflicts and crises arise inevitably, and we can retreat from those opportunities or we can choose to reinvent ourselves. What is your choice? Based on the work of C.G. Jung’s 8 Psychological Types, with over thirty pages of quotations and analysis. Starts with a brain-based introduction to 8 cognitive processes. Takes you to the next level, focusing on development. Explores the problem of one-sidedness, “tension of opposites”, and the Transcendent function. For each process, features a 30-page coaching packet based on 14 years of hands-on neuroscience of 350+ people from all walks of life. Presents over 40 case studies and over 200 personalized tips for you to develop keener perception and wiser judgment. Puts personality within a social context. Includes two chapters of activities for teams and coaches. Introduces The Magic Diamond, a powerful new metaphor to chart your path to personal and professional growth. Award-winning instructor and world-renowned personality and neuroscience researcher, Dario Nardi, brings Jung’s incredible work into the 21st century. His other books include Neuroscience of Personality, 8 Keys to Self-Leadership, Jung on Yoga, and 16 Personality Types.
