Maybe your friend just bought a new house and you're still cramped in your shoebox of a rental. Or you just celebrated year five at the job you were only going to work at for a few months. Or your privacy-disrespecting "roommates" are the same people who gave birth to you. Maybe you are finally ready to escape the deep, dark well of dissatisfaction your life has become.

How can so many women feel "good and mad" yet still reluctant to speak up in a meeting or difficult conversation? Why do women often feel like they're too much - and, at the same time, not enough?

Social scientist Brené Brown has ignited a global conversation on courage, vulnerability, shame, and worthiness. Her pioneering work uncovered a profound truth: Vulnerability—the willingness to show up and be seen with no guarantee of outcome—is the only path to more love, belonging, creativity, and joy. But living a brave life is not always easy: We are, inevitably, going to stumble and fall.

"La vie est difficile." C'est par cette affirmation que Scott Peck, psychiatre mondialement connu et respecté, commence son livre audio. Si nous souffrons autant, le problème n'est pas lié à la difficulté de la vie mais au fait que nous croyons qu'elle devrait être facile. Cette attitude, en partie due à notre éducation et aux idées fausses que la société transmet, entraîne dépression, maladies, échecs et névroses.

Un guide aussi original que spectaculaire pour tirer, enfin, le meilleur de nos vies professionnelle et personnelle ! Même si, contrairement à Chris Voss, célèbre négociateur pour le FBI, nous sommes rarement amenés à tenir tête à un forcené reclus dans une banque, notre vie quotidienne s'apparente à une succession de négociations dont nous ne sortons pas toujours vainqueurs : cette promotion dont on rêve, sans cesse repoussée ; ce prêt bancaire qu'on hésite à demander ; les exigences d'un enfant auxquelles on finit par céder... Et si on cessait de toujours couper la poire en deux ?

I believe fulfillment is a right and not a privilege. We are all entitled to wake up in the morning inspired to go to work, feel safe when we’re there and return home fulfilled at the end of the day. Achieving that fulfillment starts with understanding exactly WHY we do what we do. As Start With Why has spread around the world, countless readers have asked me the same question: How can I apply Start With Why to my career, team, company or nonprofit? Along with two of my colleagues, Peter Docker and David Mead, I created this hands-on, step-by-step guide to help you find your WHY.

"While the history books are filled with tales of obsessive visionary geniuses who remade the world in their images with sheer, almost irrational force, I've found that history is also made by individuals who fought their egos at every turn, who eschewed the spotlight, and who put their higher goals above their desire for recognition." (From the prologue)

The book draws its inspiration from stoicism, the ancient Greek philosophy of enduring pain or adversity with perseverance and resilience. Stoics focus on the things they can control, let go of everything else, and turn every new obstacle into an opportunity to get better, stronger, tougher. As Marcus Aurelius put it nearly 2000 years ago: “The impediment to action advances action. What stands in the way becomes the way.”

Tell a stranger that you talk to yourself, and you’re likely to get written off as eccentric. But the truth is that we all have a voice in our head. When we talk to ourselves, we often hope to tap into our inner coach but find our inner critic instead. When we’re facing a tough task, our inner coach can buoy us up: Focus - you can do this. But, just as often, our inner critic sinks us entirely: I’m going to fail. They’ll all laugh at me. What’s the use?

Almost every religion, spiritual practice, philosophy and person grapples with fear. The most repeated phrase in the Bible is “Be not afraid.” The ancient Greeks spoke of phobos, panic and terror. It is natural to feel fear, the Stoics believed, but it cannot rule you. Courage, then, is the ability to rise above fear, to do what’s right, to do what’s needed, to do what is true. And so it rests at the heart of the works of Marcus Aurelius, Aristotle, and CS Lewis, alongside temperance, justice, and wisdom.

There are expectations of perfection you’ve been conditioned to believe in. You’ll never achieve this perfection, because you are perfectly human. Dr Rebecca Ray will help you understand that there is a workable alternative; somewhere between good and great, a ‘good enough’ that will support you in achieving your biggest dreams, healing the parts of you that hurt, and making the right choices for your best life. Letting go of perfectionism requires us to transform these patterns of unrelenting expectations into an inner voice of encouragement and accountability.

We expect that getting what we want will finally make us happy, but what we find is that it mostly just leads to wanting more or wanting something different.
