This book is going to tell you a large number of stories, taken from philosophical books, advice and guidance books, and also experiences based on knowledge, extensive reading, practical application, attitude, mental, physical, spiritual, psychological and emotional factors being added, – some of them being personal tales – and so on, about what consists of a self-starter, how you can be a self-starter. Or, how can you make your kid one, from day Go itself. You may notice, I am not using the word Leader, that word has now become rather shabby with its social and political associations in the 20th and 21st century. The same way, “personal integrity and honor” has no locus standii, in today’s cynical world, where it is very easy to put your hand upon your heart and say “on my honor”and expect to be trusted and believed. But every parent out there wants his kid to be a leader. He associates personal, financial, social, national and international success with this particular word. We have thousands of bestsellers out there, teaching you how to become a leader, even if you happen to be a total jellyfish personality wise and behavior wise. It is interesting to know, that none of the writers who have been writing these so-called bestsellers have the time to sit down, during their leadership activities, and get these books ghostwritten by other non-leaders! Or maybe somebody wants to write his own autobiography at the fag end of a successful career in leadership and wants to justify either his actions or wants plenty of approval of the generations which are going to come after him, and decides to write a self glorifying book on what he achieved as a leader. So is he a self-starter?

Book Description
Picking up where Quiet ended, How to Be Yourself is the best book you’ll ever read about how to conquer social anxiety. “This book is also a groundbreaking road map to finally being your true, authentic self.” —Susan Cain, New York Times, USA Today and nationally bestselling author of Quiet Up to 40% of people consider themselves shy. You might say you’re introverted or awkward, or that you're fine around friends but just can't speak up in a meeting or at a party. Maybe you're usually confident but have recently moved or started a new job, only to feel isolated and unsure. If you get nervous in social situations—meeting your partner's friends, public speaking, standing awkwardly in the elevator with your boss—you've probably been told, “Just be yourself!” But that's easier said than done—especially if you're prone to social anxiety. Weaving together cutting-edge science, concrete tips, and the compelling stories of real people who have risen above their social anxiety, Dr. Ellen Hendriksen proposes a groundbreaking idea: you already have everything you need to succeed in any unfamiliar social situation. As someone who lives with social anxiety, Dr. Hendriksen has devoted her career to helping her clients overcome the same obstacles she has. With familiarity, humor, and authority, Dr. Hendriksen takes the reader through the roots of social anxiety and why it endures, how we can rewire our brains through our behavior, and—at long last—exactly how to quiet your Inner Critic, the pesky voice that whispers, "Everyone will judge you." Using her techniques to develop confidence, think through the buzz of anxiety, and feel comfortable in any situation, you can finally be your true, authentic self.

Almost everyone has a fundamental need to be liked by other people. It is a healthy and normal part of life. However, the need to be liked can also be associated with emotional, behavioural and even personality problems. The Need to be Liked is a book that explores the dark side of this human need. The author (Dr. Roger Covin) is a clinical psychologist who weaves together psychological research with his own clinical experiences in order to present a unique and original way of thinking about the need to be liked. Drawing on research and theory from various fields of psychology, Dr. Covin explains how people's experience with painful rejection shapes their way of thinking about themselves and others. Readers will learn how problems with the need to be liked can lead to depression, anxiety and other mental health concerns. Dr. Covin describes how the need to be liked expresses itself in numerous ways, ranging from subtle behaviours to aspects of one's overall personality. For example, the need to be liked can affect... ...being overly career-driven ...alcohol and drug use ...promiscuity ...one's excessive focus on appearance ...the decision to remain in an abusive relationship ...rumination about past relationships ...being overly self-critical or perfectionistic ...continually entering into relationships where you find the wrong partner ...sabotaging relationships Finally, Dr. Covin provides useful strategies and suggestions for how to manage problems with needing to be liked and dealing with rejection. The Need to be Liked is a fascinating and timely examination of a topic that affects the vast majority of people. Grounded in current research and theory, and articulated through Dr. Covin's experiences as a therapist, this book is a must read for those who have ever wondered - why do I need to be liked?
