I've spent my life trying to minimize negative feelings. Anything I could fail at or might make me uncomfortable, I avoid. My theory for this is that if I'm happier, my life is better. This book made me question that policy. ( )Esta reseña ha sido escrita por los Primeros Reseñadores de LibraryThing. There are benefits to your negative emotions? Tell me more. This book was an interesting and quick read. It will sit next to my copy of Barbara Ehrenreich's "Bright-Sided". If you are looking for a self-help book or a book on being positive and happy, don't read this one. If you want to be aware how to use all your emotions to live a meaningful life, then this is the book you want to read. Esta reseña ha sido escrita por los Primeros Reseñadores de LibraryThing. Almost forget everything that people have told you about being nice to everyone and everything. This shows that anger and the "dark side" can be beneficial. They can inspire you to make changes that you feel are needed. I found it fairly interesting being one who tends to use their negativity for good, not evil. Esta reseña ha sido escrita por los Primeros Reseñadores de LibraryThing. While happiness is the most often sought for attainment, the human emotional spectrum is broad and colorful. The authors of 'Upside' examine the non-happy emotions (including unhappiness, anxiety, anger), their causes, and the circumstances in which each provides a psychological advantage. While exploring the darker feelings, the authors chart the evolution of psychological literature and study of emotion and well-being to give both academics and laypersons insight into how the educated feel about feelings. A worthy read for leaders as a resource for teambuilding and management. Esta reseña ha sido escrita por los Primeros Reseñadores de LibraryThing. Okay. Quite the title, isn’t it?! Long but perfect, as that’s exactly what this book is about. I must report that reading this book has resulted in a slight shift in my ideas about happiness, and that’s a good thing. Happiness doesn’t always have to be about refocusing on positive things; happiness can also be acceptance of negative feelings and behaviors as sometimes necessary for change. Interesting. sin reseñas | añadir una reseña
"In The Upside of Your Dark Side, two pioneering researchers in the field of psychology show that while mindfulness, kindness, and positivity can take us far, they cannot take us all the way. Sometimes, they can even hold us back. Emotions such as anger, anxiety, guilt, and sadness might feel uncomfortable, but it turns out that they are also incredibly useful. For instance: - Anger fuels creativity - Guilt sparks improvement - Self-doubt enhances performance - In the same vein, we can become wiser and more effective when we harness the darker parts of our personality in certain situations. For instance: - Selfishness increases courage - Mindlessness leads to better decisions - The key lies in what the authors call "emotional, social, and mental agility," the ability to access our full range of emotions and behavior-not just the "good" ones-in order to respond most effectively to whatever situation we might encounter. Drawing on years of scientific research and a wide array of real-life examples including sports, the military, parenting, education, romance, business, and more, The Upside of Your Dark Side is a refreshing reality check that shows us how we can truly maximize our potential. With an appreciation of our entire psychological toolkit, we become whole-which allows us to climb the highest peaks and handle the deepest valleys"-- No se han encontrado descripciones de biblioteca. |
