New Releases by Neil Pasricha

Resiliência é uma habilidade em falta nos dias de hoje. Um efeito colateral de viver em uma era de abundância é que não temos mais as ferramentas para lidar com o fracasso ou a percepção dele. O New York Times relata que cerca de 2/3 dos alunos universitários sofrem de uma "ansiedade intensa". Os celulares nos mostram que nunca somos bons o bastante. E quanto aos índices de depressão, solidão e suicídio? Todos estão crescendo! O mundo está pronto para a nova abordagem de Neil sobre a resiliência na forma de nove segredos acessíveis, baseados em histórias e cientificamente embasados, que o ajudarão a viver mais intensa e objetivamente. Seguindo nessa jornada guiada por Neil, você aprenderá a enfrentar o fracasso, a reformular suas próprias percepções e, finalmente, a se tornar o seu próprio ser mais poderoso, sensacional e indestrutível.

Welcome to Our Book of Awesome, a celebration of the small joys that bring us together. In a world that is often overwhelming, it’s time to return to the simple things, the AWESOME things, all around us...if only we take a moment to see them: -Carrying the ice cube tray from the sink to the freezer without spilling -Finally unsubscribing from that annoying email you’ve been getting forever -Seeing your parents dance -Adding a gift note to yourself on your online order -Sending a private message during the video conference and then seeing your coworker look down and silently smirk -When your kids don’t hear you opening a bag of potato chips -When the hand sanitizer isn’t that extra slippery kind that never dries -Texting your husband to do something when he’s upstairs and you’re downstairs -When the cake plops flawlessly out of the pan These are just a few of the hundreds and hundreds of things you’ll find in this new volume. You’ll also find comments, letters, and submissions from the AWESOME community around the world, leading to a final cacophony of awesome, by all of us, for all of us. Our Book of Awesome is an injection of joy, a heartfelt gift, and a smacking high five for humanity. Read it to be reminded of the endless AWESOME things that give laughter and happiness to our beautiful and brief lives.

From Neil Pasricha--New York Times million-copy bestselling author of The Book of Awesome series and The Happiness Equation, thought leader for the next generation, and one of the most popular TED speakers in the world--comes a revelatory and inspiring book that will change the way we view failure and help us build resilience. Why is life getting harder instead of easier? How do I get back up after life knocks me down? And how do I grow stronger and live more intentionally? We no longer have the tools to handle failure...or even perceived failure. When we fall, we lie on the sidewalk crying. When we spill, we splatter. When we crack, we shatter. We are turning into an army of porcelain dolls. Cell phones show us we''re never good enough. Yesterday''s butterflies are tomorrow''s panic attacks. Record numbers suffer from anxiety, depression, and loneliness. What do we need to learn? RESILIENCE. And we need to learn it fast.

Somos afortunados. Para la mayoría de nosotros, las hambrunas, la guerra, la depresión económica y otras catástrofes que ponen en peligro nuestra vida son solo temas tratados en los libros de historia. Vivimos en una era con altos índices de longevidad, educación y riqueza. Vamos en coche, mientras nuestros teléfonos móviles nos entretienen hasta que llegamos a casa, donde podemos disfrutar de la comida que nos han entregado a domicilio. ¡Lo tenemos todo! Pero hay un único efecto secundario. Y es que ya no disponemos de las herramientas para gestionar el fracaso, ni siquiera somos capaces de percibirlo. Actualmente, cuando tropezamos nos quedamos llorando en la acera. Cuando nos quebramos, nos hacemos añicos. Nos estamos convirtiendo en un ejército de muñecas de porcelana. Un correo desagradable de tu jefe y al día siguiente llamas a tu trabajo para decir que estás enfermo. Tener solo dos likes en nuestro post significa que no tenemos amigos. Los teléfonos móviles nos recuerdan que nunca somos lo bastante buenos. Las mariposas que sentíamos en el estómago ayer se convierten en los ataques de pánico de mañana. Tenemos cifras récord de estudiantes que padecen ansiedad crónica. ¿Y qué me dices de la depresión, la soledad y el suicidio? ¡Las cifras no paran de crecer! Ante tal panorama, ¿qué capacidad es imprescindible que desarrollemos? La RESILIENCIA. Y hemos de hacerlo rápido.

‘Jij bent awesome’ is er om ons eraan te herinneren dat elk probleem een kans biedt, dat elke doodlopende straat toch een verborgen deur heeft en dat elke terugslag uiteindelijk een stap vooruit is. In ‘Jij bent awesome’ legt Neil Pasricha uit dat we in een wereld leven waarin bijna alles mogelijk en maakbaar lijkt te zijn. Niets staat een succesvol en gelukkig leven in de weg. Maar hierdoor leggen we de lat hoog voor onszelf, ervaren we keuzestress en staan we onder een alsmaar groeiende druk. We gaan ertegenaan, maar hebben last van faalangst en kunnen geen tegenslagen verdragen. We lijken wel van porselein. We buigen niet, we breken. Volgens Neil Pasricha, die eerder succesvolle boeken over dankbaarheid en geluk schreef, moeten we veerkrachtiger worden; leren omgaan met tegenslag en aan een positief zelfbeeld bouwen. ‘Jij bent awesome’ is er om ons eraan te herinneren dat elk probleem een kans biedt, dat elke doodlopende straat toch een verborgen deur heeft en dat elke terugslag uiteindelijk een stap vooruit is. Trouwens... dit boek is er om je eraan te herinneren dat jij awesome bent.

"En este nuevo libro La ecuacion de la felicidad, Pasricha ilustra como no querer nada y hacer nada para tenerlo todo. Si eso suena como una contradiccion en terminos, simplemente tienes que desbloquear los nueve secretos de la felicidad. Cada secreto toma un pedazo del nucleo del sentido comun, lo convierte en su dirigente para presentarlo en una luz completamente nueva, y despues proporciona las pautas practicas y especificas para aplicar esta nueva perspectiva y conducir una vida llena de plenitud."--Amazon.com.

The #1 international bestseller from the author of You Are Awesome and The Book of Awesome that “reveals how all of us can live happier lives” (Gretchen Rubin). What is the formula for a happy life? Neil Pasricha is a Harvard MBA, a New York Times–bestselling author, a Walmart executive, a father, a husband. After selling more than a million copies of the Book of Awesome series, wherein he observed the everyday things he thought were awesome, he now shifts his focus to the practicalities of living an awesome life. In his new book The Happiness Equation, Pasricha illustrates how to want nothing and do anything in order to have everything. If that sounds like a contradiction in terms, you simply have yet to unlock the 9 Secrets to Happiness. Each secret takes a piece out of the core of common sense, turns it on its head to present it in a completely new light, and then provides practical and specific guidelines for how to apply this new outlook to lead a fulfilling life. Once you''ve unlocked Pasricha’s 9 Secrets, you will understand counter intuitive concepts such as: Success Does Not Lead to Happiness, Never Take Advice, and Retirement Is a Broken Theory. You will learn and then master three brand-new fundamental life tests: the Saturday Morning Test, The Bench Test, and the Five People Test. You will know the difference between external goals and internal goals and how to make more money than a Harvard MBA (hint: it has nothing to do with your annual salary). You will discover that true wealth has nothing to do with money, multitasking is a myth, and the elimination of options leads to more choice. The Happiness Equation is a book that will change how you think about pretty much everything—your time, your career, your relationships, your family, and, ultimately, of course, your happiness.

A stunning first picture book from the New York Times bestselling author of The Book of Awesome. Are you ready? With the simple touch of your fingers go on a stunning interactive journey to see the world as you never have before. Fly through wispy clouds, dive deep into the sparkling ocean, feel wet grains of sand on a hot and sunny beach... You will discover you can fly your mind to anywhere on Earth. And by the time you reach the surprise ending in this unforgettable journey you''ll learn that awesome truly is everywhere.
