  It's no secret that money can be a major source of stress for most people. Whether it's the pressure to make ends meet, the fear of not having enough for the future, or the constant comparison to others' financial success, money can weigh heavily on our minds and bodies. But why is this the case? 
  One reason is that money is closely tied to our basic needs and sense of security. On the other hand, when we are constantly worrying about money, it can affect our physical and mental health, relationships, and overall well-being. 
  Money Is Killing You Daily is a comprehensive guide to understanding and managing the complex relationship between money and stress. This book begins by exploring the various factors that shape our relationship with money, including personal beliefs and values, childhood experiences, societal and cultural influences, opportunities, and life events. It then digs into the psychological roots of financial stress and the ways in which it can hold us back from achieving our financial goals. The book offers a variety of practical strategies that dive into the impacts of financial stress on both physical and mental health, and the importance of understanding an individual's current financial situation in order to manage money effectively. 
  Finally, it discusses the importance of taking control of finances and prioritizing mental health, and provides strategies for achieving this, such as identifying and addressing negative money beliefs and patterns, setting healthy financial habits, steps to increase income, making time for non-financial pursuits, and provides a range of actions that individuals can take to increase financial stability and reduce stress in the short and long-term. Money Is Killing You Daily is a valuable resource for those looking to increase their income, get out of debt, improve their financial well-being and live a more peaceful and fulfilling life.

  The Good Society - The Human Agenda

  The legendary economist explains how a nation can remain both compassionate and fiscally sound, with “common sense raised to the level of genius” (The New Yorker).   This compact, eloquent book offers a blueprint for a workable national agenda that allows for human weakness without compromising a humane culture. Arguing that it is in the best interest of the United States to avoid excessive wealth and income inequality, and to safeguard the well-being of its citizens, he explores how the goal of a good society can be achieved in an economically feasible way.   Touching on topics from regulation, inflation, and deficits to education, the environment, bureaucracy, and the military, Galbraith avoids purely partisan or rigid ideological politics—instead addressing practical problems with logic and well-thought-out principles.   “Carefully reasoned . . . the pragmatically liberal Galbraith [argues] that both socialism and complete surrender to market forces are irrelevant as guides to public action.” —Publishers Weekly

  Smartcuts - How Hackers...

  Entrepreneur and journalist Shane Snow (Wired, Fast Company, The New Yorker, and cofounder of Contently) analyzes the lives of people and companies that do incredible things in implausibly short time. 
  How do some startups go from zero to billions in mere months? How did Alexander the Great, YouTube tycoon Michelle Phan, and Tonight Show host Jimmy Fallon climb to the top in less time than it takes most of us to get a promotion? What do high-growth businesses, world-class heart surgeons, and underdog marketers do in common to beat the norm? 
  One way or another, they do it like computer hackers. They employ what psychologists call "lateral thinking: to rethink convention and break "rules" that aren't rules. 
  These are not shortcuts, which produce often dubious short-term gains, but ethical "smartcuts" that eliminate unnecessary effort and yield sustainable momentum. In Smartcuts, Snow shatters common wisdom about success, revealing how conventions like "paying dues" prevent progress, why kids shouldn't learn times tables, and how, paradoxically, it's easier to build a huge business than a small one. 
  From SpaceX to The Cuban Revolution, from Ferrari to Skrillex, Smartcuts is a narrative adventure that busts old myths about success and shows how innovators and icons do the incredible by working smarter—and how perhaps the rest of us can, too.

  The advice is sound; the client seems eager; and then . . . nothing happens! Too often, this is the experience that financial professionals encounter in their daily work. When good recommendations go unimplemented, clients' well-being is compromised, opportunities are lost, and the professional relationship grows strained.Advice that Sticks takes aim at the problem of financial non-adherence. Written by a neuropsychologist and financial change expert, this book examines the five main factors that determine whether a client will follow through with financial advice. Individual client psychology plays a role in non-adherence; so, too, do sociocultural and environmental factors, general advice characteristics, and specific challenges pertaining to the emotionally loaded domain of money. A great deal of non-adherence is due to preventable mistakes made by financial professionals and their teams.The author integrates her extensive clinical and consulting experience with research findings from the fields of positive psychology, behavioral economics, neuroscience, and medicine. What emerges is a thoughtful, funny, but above all practical guide for anyone who makes a living providing financial advice. It will become an indispensable handbook for people working with clients across the wealth spectrum.
