Summary

"Eye Opener" presents a fascinating exploration of how our understanding of reality is fundamentally shaped by unconscious biases and inherited assumptions. This thought-provoking book combines insights from cognitive psychology, neuroscience, and philosophy to examine how we form beliefs, process information through perceptual filters, and can consciously recalibrate our understanding of the world. Through a careful blend of scientific research and practical application, the book reveals how our perception is limited by biological and cultural factors, while offering hope through evidence-based techniques for expanding our awareness.

 
The book's journey unfolds across three distinctive sections, beginning with a scientific foundation of human perception and belief formation. It then progresses through compelling case studies and research experiments that illuminate how perceptual biases influence our daily decisions, from workplace choices to personal relationships. The final section transforms this knowledge into actionable strategies, providing readers with a practical framework for developing perceptual awareness and implementing meaningful change in their lives.

 
What sets this book apart is its unique synthesis of rigorous scientific research and accessible practical applications. By incorporating findings from longitudinal studies, cross-cultural research, and cutting-edge neuroscience, while maintaining a clear focus on personal development, it offers readers both theoretical understanding and concrete tools for enhancement. The balanced approach makes complex concepts in cognitive psychology and neuroplasticity accessible to a general audience while providing structured exercises and techniques for improving observational skills and developing more flexible thinking patterns.

    The Long Game - Short Writings...

    What does a man learn from a lifetime of paying attention—to the people who shaped him, the places that challenged him, and the quiet moments that revealed what actually matters? 
    In The Long Game, Jerry G. Banks shares seventy short reflections drawn from three decades of writing and a lifetime of experience—as a father and grandfather, a real estate investor who weathered the highs and lows of a volatile industry, and a man who was forged not in certainty but in searching. Some of these pieces were written at 30,000 feet. Others at a fire pit on a cold night. Some came from the solitude of rural life, others from the crowded intersections of career, family, and starting over. 
    Organized into five sections—Nature & Spirituality, Family, Resilience & Growth, Reflections on Living Well, and Essays—the collection moves through the full landscape of a life lived with intention, honesty, and faith. Banks writes about Sunday mornings and grandchildren, about loss and resilience, about what the natural world teaches when you slow down long enough to listen. 
    This is not a self-help book. There are no prescriptions here. Just the observations of a man who has been paying attention—to the seasons, to the people closest to him, to the spiritual forces he has come to trust even when they defy explanation—and who decided, finally, to share what he found. 
    A companion to his best-selling memoir Eat Sh*t and Smile!, The Long Game is a book to read slowly, return to often, and share with the people who matter most.

This book will show you how to model the qualities you want to build in your kids, control anxious thoughts, and help your kids rest in their identities as children of God. 
     
     
     
    With God's Word and these brain-based tools, you can raise emotionally healthy and spiritually strong children who not only remain unshaken by the world, but can actually make a positive impact on it.

    From the award-winning author of On Fragile Waves comes an inspirational, surprising guide to creation and creativity, and how both bring us closer to God.   Centuries ago, sound theology and good fiction were friends and not strangers. Decades ago, authors strove not for self-expression and self-disclosure but for a mastery of craft and language and books that transformed the reader with wisdom and love. In more recent years, the old ideals have been exchanged for lesser ones.   Few guides to writing, which tend to focus on mechanics, point of view, and plot, address the more important matters of meaning, depth, and heart. But it is the latter qualities that make a book a blessing and gift to both writer and reader. Like Christ’s invitation to follow, they demand a risk and sacrifice of the self and all it holds dear. Writers from George MacDonald to James Baldwin understood this, but in recent years this understanding has been lost. Making old things new, this book proposes an ethics of reading, writing, and living based on truth and love.  Break, Blow, Burn, & Make returns the literary conversation to the practices of co-creation with God. Part bugle call, part compass for writing and for life, and part love song to the books that set us on fire, it offers those who are willing to receive it the courage to live, read, and write more deeply and honestly.
