DAL MENTAL COACH DI MICHAEL JORDAN E KOBE BRYANT Come sbloccare il tuo potenziale e raggiungere il successo. "George mi ha fatto comprendere l’arte della mindfulness: essere né distratto né concentrato, né rigido né flessibile, né passivo né aggressivo. Ho imparato, semplicemente, a essere."KOBE BRYANT Tutti desideriamo raggiungere lo stato di “flusso”, in cui le nostre abilità, esperienza e mentalità si allineano e noi possiamo esprimere al massimo il nostro potenziale, senza impedimenti. George Mumford sostiene che chiunque può raggiungere tale stato, non solo le persone dotate di un talento eccezionale. Grazie alla pluridecennale esperienza come mental coach dei giocatori più forti della storia dell’NBA, ma anche con soggetti di estrazione e background molto diversi tra loro, e alla sua personale storia di rinascita e successo dopo un passato di dipendenze e difficoltà, oggi Mumford può condividere con i lettori gli insegnamenti di una vita, guidandoci alla scoperta della nostra forza interiore e spiegandoci come incanalarla al meglio. "Mi hanno definito 'l’uomo che sussurrava alle prestazioni'. Le blandisco, le attiro. 'Sussurro' alla parte ostinata e oppositiva delle persone, quella che resiste al processo di crescita, che si rifiuta di rinunciare alle vecchie abitudini. Per sbloccare la grandezza, dobbiamo rompere il guscio e raggiungere ciò che contiene. Può essere un processo difficile e doloroso, che sfida la nostra mente quanto gli allenamenti sfidano il corpo e i limiti della resistenza. L’allenamento mentale che faccio con gli atleti, i detenuti, gli insegnanti, gli amministratori delle università, gli uomini d’affari e altri ci scuote allontanandoci da ciò che ci è familiare e ci mette in contatto con aspetti più profondi di noi stessi." Sia i lettori alla ricerca di nuove strade per la crescita interiore, sia gli appassionati di basket che desiderano capire come giocatori come Kobe Bryant abbiano raggiunto risultati così straordinari, in questo libro troveranno ciò che cercano.

#1 New York Times Bestseller REVISED WITH NEW MATIERAL Winner of the 2014 Living Now Book Award for Inspirational Memoir "An enormously smart, clear-eyed, brave-hearted, and quite personal look at the benefits of meditation." —Elizabeth Gilbert Nightline anchor Dan Harrisembarks on an unexpected, hilarious, and deeply skeptical odyssey through the strange worlds of spirituality and self-help, and discovers a way to get happier that is truly achievable. After having a nationally televised panic attack, Dan Harris knew he had to make some changes. A lifelong nonbeliever, he found himself on a bizarre adventure involving a disgraced pastor, a mysterious self-help guru, and a gaggle of brain scientists. Eventually, Harris realized that the source of his problems was the very thing he always thought was his greatest asset: the incessant, insatiable voice in his head, which had propelled him through the ranks of a hypercompetitive business, but had also led him to make the profoundly stupid decisions that provoked his on-air freak-out. Finally, Harris stumbled upon an effective way to rein in that voice, something he always assumed to be either impossible or useless: meditation, a tool that research suggests can do everything from lower your blood pressure to essentially rewire your brain. 10% Happier takes readers on a ride from the outer reaches of neuroscience to the inner sanctum of network news to the bizarre fringes of America’s spiritual scene, and leaves them with a takeaway that could actually change their lives.
Comment je suis devenu 10% plus heureux
Dan Harris
Être un peu plus zen, c'est déjà beaucoup. Et c'est faisable. Dan Harris, c'est Candide au pays du développement personnel. Présentateur télé, stressé chronique, sceptique systématique, rien ne le prédisposait à s'intéresser au développement personnel ou à la spiritualité. Mais son patron l'envoie enquêter sur les stars du développement personnel. Le voici rencontrant les stars du développement personnel, de Deepak Chopra à Eckhart Tolle, en passant par les télé-évangélistes, avec un regard toujours curieux, parfois narquois, et très souvent amusé. Mais, entre les propositions les plus ésotériques, et celles carrément loufoques qui promettent le bonheur à 100%, n'y a-t-il pas moyen, pour un esprit cartésien, de devenir - et c'est déjà beaucoup - 10% plus heureux ?
Creative Agency
Dan Harris
This book offers a socio-cultural examination of contemporary creativity studies. Drawing heavily on posthumanist, new materialist and affective theoretics, the author argues in favour of an expansive and sustainable approach to creativity which contributes to an emergent ‘creativity studies’ inter-discipline. It seeks to establish a broader consideration of creativity in socio-culture, that extends beyond, or indeed refutes, the narrowing aperture of entrepreneurship and innovation as synonyms for creativity in economic, cultural and educational contexts and discourses. Drawing on multiple case studies of creative relational and creative ecological empirical research, this book integrates a concern for personal, planetary and geo-political collaboration, as an antidote for ‘innovation for innovation’s sake’.
