Westerners today grow up with abundant opportunities to determine their own values, identities, and roles in society. But for generations, millions who lived under Soviet rule in the USSR had these essential freedoms withheld, determined instead by a central authority that claimed the right to choose for them and enforce their compliance. Thirty years after the Soviet Union’s decisive collapse, the old communist paradigm continues to limit those who come of age in a post-Soviet world.Everyone Is an Entrepreneur showcases the experience of an American author acclimating to life in the developing post-Soviet economy of Armenia. Along the way, he examines how the intelligent and hardworking people he lives among are stuck in a state of transition away from all-encompassing, bureaucratic control. They struggle to adjust to the responsibilities of economic self-determination because they have never learned how to see the world through entrepreneurial eyes.Entrepreneurship is a principled way of seeing the world, a paradigm that applies to people in all cultural and economic circumstances: Artists, office workers, doctors, teachers, farmers, and laborers alike. By adopting this universal outlook, anyone can produce more wealth, accomplish bigger goals, and take control of their life like never before.Ver livro
Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT) is an innovative approach that combines the principles of mindfulness with cognitive therapy techniques to address mental health challenges and enhance mental clarity. Developed as a preventative intervention for depression relapse, MBCT has grown in popularity and application across various mental health contexts due to its effectiveness in cultivating awareness and emotional resilience. At its core, MBCT integrates mindfulness practices—rooted in ancient meditative traditions—with evidence-based cognitive behavioral strategies. Mindfulness involves paying attention to the present moment with a sense of openness, curiosity, and non-judgment. It encourages individuals to observe their thoughts, emotions, and physical sensations without being swept away by them. When combined with cognitive therapy, which focuses on identifying and restructuring negative thought patterns, MBCT provides a powerful framework for managing psychological distress. The origins of MBCT trace back to the pioneering work of Zindel Segal, Mark Williams, and John Teasdale. Inspired by Jon Kabat-Zinn's Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) program, these researchers sought to adapt mindfulness techniques specifically for individuals prone to recurrent episodes of depression. Over time, MBCT has demonstrated significant benefits not only in preventing depression relapse but also in treating anxiety, stress, and other mood disorders.Ver livro
