Aprašymas

Two months into publication, this book was named the 2012 International Book Awards "Best New Self-Help Book" and 2012 Next Generation Indie Book Awards "Motivational Book of the Year." It was also honored as second runner up for the Indie "Inspirational Book of the Year." Why is that so?

Every human being is born with an extraordinary set of inner capacities, including intelligence, willpower, mind, imagination, creativity, love and emotion. Strangely, most people pass through young adulthood and 13+ years of schooling without ever formally learning about any one of these innate capacities. As a result, a vast majority of folks spend their days harnessing only a small fraction of the great potential that is freely available within them.

The User’s Guide to Being Human: The Art and Science of Self comprehensively examines the inner tools with which people shape their lives. Merging art with science, it illuminates 8 core capacities that enable people to bring out the best in themselves, their activities and relationships. It offers step-by-step coaching for all who wish to master the ongoing art of personal development.

Readers: 1) learn to make full use of the natural capacities innately available within them, 2) find the power and skill to positively transform their lives and relationships, 3) reawaken and revitalize parts of themselves that were buried or damaged in years past, 4) learn to solve their own problems and avoid being overly dependent upon others, 5) have fun reading a variety of stories about other people and their everyday mishaps, and 6) be nourished page after page by a positive, inspirational view of life.

This is a book for people interested in personal development, empowered parenting, effective teaching, and the support of clients in therapeutic or other social service settings.
