Two-Minute Offense for a Winning Marriage: For Men Who Know More About Football Than Marriage
by Doug Kingsriter[from the inside book flap:] TWO-MINUTE OFFENSE FOR A WINNING MARRIAGE: A message to women only, from the publisher: It's Monday night again. Your husband sits enrapt in Monday Night Football, watching intently as if his life depends on who makes the next touchdown. As usual, when you speak, he hardly glances your way. All he cares about is football, you silently muse. If only he could get half as excited about our relationship. Could there be a way to communicate how you feel to your husband using the language he understands the best--the language of football? Doug Kingsriter says yes. But what could football and marriage possibly have in common? Consider this: the success of both hinges on being a unified team. In football, it's playing together. In marriage, it's being in the game of life together, with singleness of heart and purpose. It's working together to reach the goal. That's this book's definition of a winning marriage. Two-Minute Offense for a Winning Marriage will help you communicate what you feel in the non-threatening, often humorous context of football. Your husband will finally understand what you are trying to say. In a way, this book teaches football to women and marriage to men--foreign languages to each. It provides a frame of reference in which husbands and wives can discuss and improve their relationship. It will turn on the lights in your marriage arena. Through stories and personal experiences gained as college All-American and National Football League Super Bowl player, Doug Kingsriter matches the game of football--the players, the opposition, the strategies, the coach, the playing field, and the plays--with marriage. In so doing, he helps men understand the obstacles to a successful marriage, then shows how they can go about overcoming those barriers. In football, the two-minute offense utilizes tried and true plays to make big gains while there's still time on the clock. It can turn sure defeat into victory. And that's just what this book is designed to do for you.
Tying Down the Wind: Adventures in the Worst Weather on Earth

Tyranny of Niceness: Unmasking the Need for Approval
by Evelyn Sommers"I've got to stop being so nice." How often has Dr. Evelyn Sommers heard that from her clients over the years? The Tyranny of Niceness identifies and confronts our most fundamental social dysfunction - niceness. For over 15 years, Sommers, a Toronto psychologist, has treated many twisted lives created by being nice. She interweaves the case histories of her clients with her own observations to present a frightening, yet hopeful, picture of a society that promotes silence and obedience over individuality and honesty. Through her stories and analysis, we see that letting go of niceness, without being rude or uncivil, means a new way of relating to others and a new honesty with oneself.

Tómale una selfie a tu alma: Cómo mirar dentro de ti y ser tú mismo
by Marcelo RittnerSi pudieras verte desde fuera, sin filtros, ¿te reconocerías? En una sociedad que prioriza las apariencias sobre la espiritualidad, donde se valora más el éxito económico que el bienestar emocional, cada vez estamos más lejos de saber quiénes somos realmente. Cuando no alcanzamos los estándares, cuando no obtenemos los likes que tanto deseamos, esto nos causa angustia y pesar, que poco a poco destruyen nuestra autoestima y dañan la forma en la que nos relacionamos con la gente a la que amamos y con nosotros mismos. Pero no todo está perdido. En este libro aprenderás a verte con tus propios ojos, los más amorosos que encontrarás, y descubrirás que todo lo que te hace diferente no es un defecto, sino la prueba de que eres una persona única e irremplazable. Este libro ofrece una serie de reflexiones necesarias y urgentes sobre la forma en que priorizamos los distintos aspectos de nuestra vida cuando atendemos más las apariencias externas que las necesidades internas. Descubre por qué debemos procurar nuestra dimensión espiritual tanto como la física; por qué es importante estar en buenos términos con nuestro ser interior antes de preocuparnos por agradar a los demás, y cómo encontrar nuestro propósito en la vida, en vez de imitar los que otras personas intentan imponernos. Prólogo de Alejandra Llamas

Manifiesta tu abundancia y usa el poder de tus pensamientos para lograr lo que quieres. La vida tan ajetreada que tenemos nos impide muchas veces valorar las pequeñas cosas que nos hacen felices. Somos expertos en quejarnos, culpar y juzgar a los demás, pero ¿por qué no mirar con bondad al de al lado? ¿Por qué no tener un poco de fe en el ser humano y en el encanto de la naturaleza? ¿Por qué no aceptar que tú eres un milagro, que somos un milagro y que a diario vivimos el milagro de ser y sentir? En este libro, tan lleno de luz como de experiencias de vida, Verónica del Castillo nos invita a reflexionar sobre el poder de los milagros que marcan nuestra vida, desde el hecho de nacer y conectarnos con alguna esencia divina o poder superior, hasta la capacidad de enfrentar, asumir o vencer las enfermedades, los accidentes mortales y el derrumbe emocional, expresado a través de depresiones, angustias, ausencia de una luz en el camino. Tú eres un milagro repasa momentos dolorosos en los que ante la situación más grave y trágica la persona mantuvo la fe para sanar heridas físicas y emocionales, y logró el alivio. Verónica del Castillo te invita, con historias emotivas y frases luminosas, a entender la esencia de los milagros, a comprobar que lo mágico, divino y esperanzador también está en nosotros y puede, para bien, cambiar nuestra vida.
