Finding Internal Happiness - A Pattern of Philosophy by Trix Joyce

Trix Joyce

Sinopse

Welcome to learn about what you can do to balance your inner and outer happiness. This is a philosophical book that is not like something else you will stumble upon. Many “self-help books” talk about goal-setting and making habits with the target of wanting something outside of oneself. Often external validation or a career we want or something like that. This book is not that, this book explores our inner worlds and how we can feel more content with what we already have but still search for a fulfilling life and make our internal and external goals go hand-in-hand. This is not a book about external and material goals like guiding you for societal success though. It will teach you how to find your inner happiness instead. It has a spiritual approach as well as a psychological approach, but there’s no specific religion attached to this book. It just explores these internal journeys in a way that I feel is worth discussing, as a generally spiritual person and a person who has studied evidence-based psychology as well. This is, however, a highly philosophical read and it also contains my own philosophical thoughts I have developed over the years. So be prepared to read about things you have not heard of before.
Content warning: This book is written almost like a memoir and I have included parts of my own journey as a basis for the more educational and informational content in this book. That means that I’m describing topics including sexual assault, abuse, domestic violence, ableism, mental- and physical health issues, and such. If you are not in a place where you want to read about that - although this book doesn’t explore these topics very heavily - I suggest waiting with this book. I won’t discuss the topics in an intense and descriptive manner, but it is worth saying that this book contains such topics regardless.

Dragged Up Proppa - Growing up...

Pip Fallow

Read by the author, Dragged Up Proppa is the story of growing up working class in a forgotten England.'Very compelling, beautifully written memoir of a time and England that no longer exists but remains just as important today as ever' – Sebastian Payne, author of Broken HeartlandsPip Fallow was born in the coal-miner’s cottage where his family of eight lived, in a village near Durham. Pip was destined to join his father down the pit, but the closure of his village’s mine in the 1980s saw him at the back of the dole queue like the rest. This is Pip’s story of being ‘dragged up proppa’, living by his wits, working and travelling the world – before finally settling a few miles from where he grew up.A lot has been written about the red wall in recent years, but Pip Fallow has lived it. This is his account of some of the most important issues affecting Britain today – from levelling-up and the north-south divide, to social mobility and class, and the devastating social upheaval caused by decades of deindustrialization and government neglect. He shows how broken promises of the past impact his village and the politics of today.This is the memoir of a man who left school illiterate, but has now written a book. The story of a lost generation who were prepared for a life that had disappeared by the time they were ready for it, of communities with once strong social ties that have now disintegrated, and a way of living that simply no longer exists in Britain today.'Fallow's memoir is not just a classic piece of working-class writing, but a truly gripping narrative' – Brian Groom, author of Northerners: A History

Sisterhood in Sports - How...

Joan Steidinger

Sisterhood in Sports: How Female Athletes Collaborate and Compete tells the stories of all kinds of female athletes in a variety of sports. Their natural tendency to use talking as a primary form of communication is essential to their experiences and successes in sports. Women and girls tend to have BFFs, collaborate during periods of stress, express empathy for one another, worry about themselves and others, and desire to have fun in sports, which makes their experiences of sports and competition different from their male counterparts. Female strengths are grounded in both mind and body, and they take these strengths onto the court, field, and track.   There are now dozens of studies showing how the female brain and hormones operate quite differently than those of men. This book reveals the ways in which these differences confirm that intense emotions about relationships are part of the sporting life for female competitors. Joan Steidinger uses real stories to show that women and girls compete at very high

Why Stupid People Think They're...

John Harpoon

The Dunning-Kruger Effect is a cognitive bias in which people with limited knowledge or ability in a certain area overestimate their competence. It is named after social psychologists David Dunning and Justin Kruger, who first identified the phenomenon in a 1999 study. The effect highlights a curious and often frustrating contradiction: those who are least skilled in a particular domain are often the most confident in their abilities. This psychological phenomenon is not just a theoretical curiosity—it has real-world consequences for individuals and society.
At the heart of the Dunning-Kruger Effect is the relationship between self-perception and actual competence. It’s common for people to assume that their understanding of a topic or skill is more advanced than it truly is, especially in areas where they have little experience. This overconfidence stems from ignorance: when you don’t know what you don’t know, you are unaware of the gaps in your knowledge. In fact, research suggests that the less a person knows about a subject, the more likely they are to overestimate their abilities in that area. Conversely, those who are highly skilled tend to underestimate their competence, as they are more aware of the complexities and nuances of the field.
The Dunning-Kruger Effect also underscores the significant role that confidence plays in shaping how we perceive ourselves and others. Confidence is often mistaken for competence, leading people to believe that an individual’s self-assurance is a reflection of their skill or knowledge. However, confidence can be a double-edged sword: while it can motivate people to pursue challenges and opportunities, it can also prevent them from recognizing their own limitations. This creates a dangerous feedback loop where overconfidence leads to poor decisions and missed learning opportunities.
