The List: Shout Your Dreams Out Loud to Make Them Come True
by Yuval AbramovitzRefreshingly honest, fast-paced, and full of humor, The List is full of practical advice and inspiration that will help you achieve your goals. Already an international bestseller, the book began as a list of 10 things the author wanted to accomplish in 400 days. He posted the list on his blog and asked for help-and within 24 hours was overwhelmed by responses. The key idea is as simple as it is powerful-let others know about your dreams and they will help you achieve them.Why do some people succeed where others fail? What makes some push past their financial hardships while others lag behind? What is holding you back? Yuval Abramovitz provides thought-provoking true stories, tips, insights, and techniques to show readers how to move past roadblocks, ask and receive help, and reach even the loftiest of goals.The List is filled with exercises and prompts for lists that help you make your dreams a reality. The author’s journey-from writing his first list in a wheelchair to becoming a well-known author, cultural reporter, actor, and media personality-and the stories of people around the world using his method to achieve success prove that this is a motivational book that truly works.
The Listening Book: How to Create a World of Rich Connections and Surprising Growth by Actually Hearing Each Other
by Bruce Ecker Robin Ticic Elise KushnerSatisfying, secure connection with others depends heavily on how well we listen to each other and respond to what we’ve heard. The Listening Book lays bare the key elements of both deeply attuned and badly misattuned listening in vivid scenes of real-life interactions that capture the emotional impact and give the reader an illuminating "aha" experience. Added to that is a mind-opening account of psychological processes and principles that normally operate from outside of awareness, showing how skillful listening can reveal those dynamics. Beyond even that, such listening can produce interactions that unlock lifelong emotional conditioning to yield liberating change through one of the brain’s most remarkable processes, which neuroscientists call memory reconsolidation. Whether read solo, with a partner, or in a reading group, The Listening Book is for everyone who yearns for deeper emotional connection and closeness, everyone who is at a loss to understand what is interfering, and everyone who is fascinated by the subtle and manifold factors involved in interpersonal communication.
The Listening Hand: Self-Healing Through the Rubenfeld Synergy Method of Talk and Touch

Her marvelous storytelling gift brings to life her own and many other dramatic case histories, showing how quickly healing takes place when we learn to listen to the messages our bodies are trying to convey. Filled with exercises for both individuals and couples, "The Listening Hand" also includes chapters on self-care for helpers and on the role of humor in healing -- plus a fully illustrated seven-day program for flexibility and tension release.

The Little Blue Book of Nurses' Wisdom (Little Books)
by Nacole T. RiccaboniNursing is an exceptional profession that will fill your heart and, at the same time, empty your tank. Nurses work countless hours forming community bonds and forming lasting relationships. They impact the ones around them with their attention to detail, caregiving, and unwavering advocacy. Nursing tasks are never singular, one-dimensional objectives but rather diverse, multifaceted check boxes nurses work on and implement to improve their patients' health outcomes. No nurse is the same, no patient is the same. Each nursing shift provides a different experience; adaptation is essential each and every hour. Nurses are chameleons and leaders who go above and beyond, making it all work out and making it the impossible look simplistic. Nursing is a profession that cannot be quantified in one sentence, and nurses aren't individuals who have linear mindsets. Whether you are a nurse, know a nurse, or on your way to being a nurse, The Little Blue Book of Nurses' Wisdom will remind you of just how great nursing is and how much support the nursing profession offers individuals worldwide. Read and reflect on each quote. Allow these words to touch your heart and trigger memories of your present and future self. Nursing isn't merely a profession. It is a mindset. Let your mood be empowered and encouraged by these wonderful messages. &“Tell me and I forget. Teach me and I remember. Involve me and I learn.&” —Benjamin Franklin "Love yourself enough to set boundaries. Your time and energy are precious. You get to choose how you use it. You teach people how to treat you by deciding what you will and won&’t accept.&” —Anna Taylor &“Kindness can transform someone&’s dark moment with a blaze of light. You&’ll never know how much your caring matters.&” —Amy Leigh Mercree &“We overestimate the event and underestimate the process. Every fulfilled dream occurred because of dedication.&” —John C. Maxwell &“We hardly ever talk about trauma afterwards, because it helps to live in a world where we can pretend it never happened.&” —Joyce Rachelle "There are two types of people who will tell you that you cannot make a difference in this world: those who are afraid to try and those who are afraid you will succeed." —Ray Goforth
