No tan rápido


Book Description

Most driving literature for parents focuses on how to teach a teen to drive, without explaining why teen driving is so dangerous in the first place or giving parents a plan to preempt the hazards teens face. By contrast, No tan rápido empowers and guides parents to understand the causes and situations that most often lead to teen crashes and to take specific, proactive steps—before and each time a teen driver gets behind the wheel—to counteract them. This authoritative guide tackles hot button issues such as texting and distracted driving, parenting attitudes (conscious and unconscious), and teen impairment and fatigue—and includes a combination of topics not found in other teen driving guides, such as: How brain development affects driving Why driver's ed does not produce safe drivers How and why to prepare a "flight plan" for each drive before handing over the keys How and when to say no Proceeds from the sale of this book support the Reid Samuel Hollister Memorial Fund, which subsidizes infant and toddler education in greater Hartford, Connecticut, and worthy traffic safety causes.

Smart Choices


Book Description

Where should I live? Is it time to get a new job? Which job candidate should I hire? What business strategy should I pursue? We spend the majority of our lives making decisions, both big and small. Yet, even though our success is largely determined by the choices that we make, very few of us are equipped with useful decision-making skills. Because of this, we often approach our choices tentatively, or even fearfully, and avoid giving them the time and thought required to put our best foot forward. In Smart Choices, John Hammond, Ralph Keeney, and Howard Raiffa--experts with over 100 years of experience resolving complex decision problems--offer a proven, straightforward, and flexible roadmap for making better and more impactful decisions, and offer the tools to achieve your goals in every aspect of your life. Their step-by-step, divide-and conquer approach will teach you how to: * Evaluate your plans * Break your potential decision into its key elements * Identify the key drivers that are most relevant to your goals * Apply systematic thinking * Use the right information to make the smartest choice Smart Choices doesn’t tell you what to decide; it tells you how. As you routinely use the process, you’ll become more confident in your ability to make decisions at work and at home. And, more importantly, by applying its time-tested methods, you’ll make better decisions going forward. Be proactive. Don’t wait until a decision is forced on you--or made for you. Seek out decisions that advance your long-term goals, values, and beliefs. Take charge of your life by making Smart Choices a lifetime habit.




de la Escasez a la Abundancia


Book Description

"De la escasez a la abundancia" es un libro que contiene principios cuyo propósito es favorecer a la transformación de aquellos que entienden que tenemos la vida para evolucionar y desarrollarnos a través de las generaciones hacia la más clara expresión de una conciencia llena de luz. Los conceptos "escasez" y "abundancia" hacen referencia, en este libro, a dos polos opuestos que trazan el camino mediante el cual desarrollamos nuestra manera de pensar; partiendo de la escasez y avanzando hacia la abundancia. El modo de pensar determina la lógica que seguimos para decidir en la vida. Una transformación en la manera de pensar resultará en una operación lógica diferente para decidir y por lo tanto, una experiencia diferente al vivir. La hipótesis desarrollada en esta obra se basa en la propuesta de que, al igual que en el tablero de un auto o un avión, tenemos ciertos indicadores que nos muestran el progreso de nuestra transformación, la calidad de nuestros pensamientos se manifiesta en nuestra capacidad para administrar los recursos económicos, materiales y humanos, la calidad de nuestro estado emocional se manifiesta en la capacidad que tenemos de administrar el tiempo y la calidad de nuestras decisiones se manifiesta en la capacidad que tenemos de esforzarnos con buen ánimo hacia los más altos propósitos de la vida. Aún cuando se cita y se recurre a la sabiduría que hallamos en las escrituras bíblicas, éste no es un libro religioso sino un libro cuyo contenido realza ante todo LA VIDA.
