Do Nothing
Author: Celeste Headlee
Publisher: Harmony
ISBN: 1984824740
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 290
Book Description
“A welcome antidote to our toxic hustle culture of burnout.”—Arianna Huffington “This book is so important and could truly save lives.”—Elizabeth Gilbert “A clarion call to work smarter [and] accomplish more by doing less.”—Adam Grant We work feverishly to make ourselves happy. So why are we so miserable? Despite our constant search for new ways to optimize our bodies and minds for peak performance, human beings are working more instead of less, living harder not smarter, and becoming more lonely and anxious. We strive for the absolute best in every aspect of our lives, ignoring what we do well naturally and reaching for a bar that keeps rising higher and higher. Why do we measure our time in terms of efficiency instead of meaning? Why can’t we just take a break? In Do Nothing, award-winning journalist Celeste Headlee illuminates a new path ahead, seeking to institute a global shift in our thinking so we can stop sabotaging our well-being, put work aside, and start living instead of doing. As it turns out, we’re searching for external solutions to an internal problem. We won’t find what we’re searching for in punishing diets, productivity apps, or the latest self-improvement schemes. Yet all is not lost—we just need to learn how to take time for ourselves, without agenda or profit, and redefine what is truly worthwhile. Pulling together threads from history, neuroscience, social science, and even paleontology, Headlee examines long-held assumptions about time use, idleness, hard work, and even our ultimate goals. Her research reveals that the habits we cling to are doing us harm; they developed recently in human history, which means they are habits that can, and must, be broken. It’s time to reverse the trend that’s making us all sadder, sicker, and less productive, and return to a way of life that allows us to thrive.

With Or Without Me
Author: Esther Maria Magnis
Publisher:
ISBN: 9781636080260
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 280
Book Description
With or Without Me is an unsparing and eloquent critique of religion. Yet Esther Maria Magnis's frustration is merely the beginning of a tortuous journey toward faith--one punctuated by personal losses retold with bluntness and intense immediacy. "Maybe God is a sadist," she writes, "a big baby who had a terrible upbringing. If, as Christians claim, God is love, then it's a kind of love I do not understand." She dares to believe anyway, although her questioning won't let up. She fiercely dismantles both the clichés she's heard in church and the endless philosophizing of her parents' generation. Esther Maria Magnis knows believing in God is anything but easy. Because he allows people to suffer. Because he's invisible. And silent. "I think we miss God," she writes, "I would never want to persuade anyone or put myself above atheists. I know there are good reasons not to believe. But sometimes I think most people are just sad that he's not there." With or Without Me is a book for everyone--believer or unbeliever, Christian or atheist--who refuses to surrender to the idea that, just because there can be beauty and truth, there must also be clear answers to the big questions in life.

Words of Hope
Author: Craig Turner
Publisher: TAN Books
ISBN: 1618906100
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 128
Book Description
"What do you fear? Can a child who is loved as much as I love you perish in the arms of a Father who is omnipotent?" - Our Lord's words to St. Margaret Mary Alacoque If you met God today, what would He say to you? You bring to God your suffering: physical ailments, emotional pain, fears and doubts, and more. You ask Him to deliver you from these difficulties. What might He say to you in reply? Words of Hope is a collection of powerful dialogues and sayings given by Jesus to four gifted saints from the Middle Ages and Renaissance: Teresa of Ávila, Catherine of Genoa, Gertrude the Great and Margaret Mary Alacoque. These souls possessed the gift of "locution," the ability to hear the actual voice of God. Each of these wise and holy women has left us accounts of their conversations with God, especially during times of struggle. In Words of Hope, you'll discover what Our Lord told them - words that you, too, can take to heart. • "While one is alive, progress doesn't come from trying to enjoy Me more, but by trying to do My will.” • "The kingdom of Heaven cannot be obtained without suffering." • "The more you pray for anyone, the happier they will become, because no prayer of faith can remain unfruitful, although you do not know in what manner the fruit will come." • "I love holy water, and I have so great an affection for the cross that I cannot refrain from uniting Myself closely with those who bear it like Me and for the love of Me." In this book, author Craig Turner collects into categories the locutions received by these saints, words from God that are meant not only for these four souls, but for all mankind. Words of Hope is a powerful work that shows God's amazing love and compassion for each and every person.
