In Grit to Great, Linda Kaplan Thaler and Robin Koval tackle a topic that is close to their hearts, one that they feel is the real secret totheir own success in their careers--and in the careers of so many people they know and have met. And that is the incredible power ofgrit, perseverance, perspiration, determination, and sheer stick-to-it-tiveness. We are all dazzled by the notion that there are somepeople who get ahead, who reach the corner office because they are simply gifted, or well-connected, or both. But research shows thatwe far overvalue talent and intellectual ability in our culture. The fact is, so many people get ahead--even the gifted ones--because theyworked incredibly hard, put in the thousands of hours of practice and extra sweat equity, and made their own luck. And Linda and Robinshould know--they are two girls from the Bronx who had no special advantages or privileges and rose up through their own hard workand relentless drive to succeed to the top of their highly competitive profession. In a book illustrated with a cornucopia of stories and the latest research on success, the authors reveal the strategies that helpedthem, and countless others, succeed at the highest levels in their careers and professions, and in their personal lives. They talk about theguts--the courage--necessary to take on tough challenges and not give up at the first sign of difficulty. They discuss the essentialquality of resiliency. Everyone suffers setbacks in their careers and in life. The key, however, is to pick yourself up and bounce back.Drawing on the latest research in positive psychology, they discuss why optimists do better in school, work, and on the playingfield--and how to reset that optimistic set point. They talk about industriousness, the notion that Malcolm Gladwell popularized with the10,000-hour rule in his book Outliers. Creativity theorist Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi believes it takes a minimum of 10 years for one's truecreative potential to be realized. And the authors explore the concept of tenacity--the quality that allows us to remain focused and avoiddistraction in order to get the job done--an increasingly difficult task in today's fragmented, cluttered, high-tech, connected world. Written in the same short, concise format as The Power of Nice and leavened with the natural humor that characterizes Linda's andRobin's lives--and books--Grit to Great is destined to be the book everyone in business needs."

Since 1991, Dr. Lee Jampolsky's self-help classic Healing the Addictive Mind has given well over 100,000 people around the world the tools to create significant change in their lives. Now he continues his proven and trustworthy blend of practical and positive psychology with HEALING THE ADDICTIVE PERSONALITY. Dr. Jampolsky's straightforward approach, based on firsthand experience, presents ways of healing addictive thinking, behavior, and destructive relationship patterns with forgiveness, compassion, and the potential for limitless opportunity through an eleven-week action plan.A personal note from the author: Many people live in a self-imposed prison and don't even know it. I did. For years I was so busy building walls I did not see that I was imprisoning myself behind them. My addictive thinking and behavior became the bars of my cell. I denied feeling empty inside and instead looked for new things to acquire, substances to take, and goals to achieve in order to feel better about myself. Sometimes I felt momentarily free, powerful, and whole, but in the end my addictive cycle only compounded my loneliness and despair. If you recognize this pattern in yourself, this book is addressed to you. Today, I am able to tell you I now know what true freedom and happiness are and I offer the path that I intend to follow every day of my life. Reviews: "This 178 page book is a miraculous Godsend because it goes deep to expose the profile of the addictive personality, and then Grit to Great: How Perseverance, Passion, and Pluck Take You from Ordinary to Extraordinary pdf broadens from there to show us how to recognize the characteristics of the addictive personality and understand why it develops in the first place. The layout of this awesome teacher helped me to see how I can go from a place of addictive thinking to having a truth-based personality.I liked how the negative core beliefs were laid bare, and the healthy counterparts were readily available because many times there is denial associated with addiction and it helped me see the true man behind the curtain and not just the illusions I have been living with. The cunning foe of addiction has become such a part of our society that I would recommend this crucial and charming champion to anyone at any stage of their spiritual growth and development. This precious gem will help many on the path to serenity and it has found it's way to my spiritual toolbox. Thanks, Dr. Lee for this most excellent way out. Riki Frahmann www.mysticlivingtoday.com"
