Synopsis
Resilience, the ability to bounce back after an emotional, relational or even work place setback, is a quality missing in today's young people. This book would be an instructional and anecdotal guide to building resilience - the mental fortitude required in an ever changing world - whether the reader is school age, work age or retirement age. By articulating the physical, emotional and psychological benefits of developing resilience the book will explore what skills are required to 'harden up ' and give practical examples of how these can be applied in real life. The book will be broken down into chapters and include some case studies and real-life situations but also have bullet points and steps to follow in developing resilience., By Felix EconomakisIn Harden Up, psychologist Felix Economakis explains how previous generations were tougher, harder-working and coped better with obstacles, and compares their attitudes with our overly sensitive, hand-it-to-me-on-a-platter culture. He proposes that to get what we want, we need to take a dose of our grandparents medicine and harden up.ABOUT THE BOOKToday we face fewer physical and mental challenges than at any other time in history but we are more sensitive, entitled and complaining than ever. In a post-recession world, whining about our lot or waiting for someone to hand us the perfect life isn t going to wash. In Harden Up, psychologist Felix Economakis explains how previous generations were tougher, harder-working and coped better with obstacles, and compares their attitudes with our overly sensitive, hand-it-to-me-on-a-platter culture. He proposes that to get what we want, we need to take a dose of our grandparents medicine and harden up. Beginning with how to accept the sacrifices that are necessary to achieve our goals, and then changing our attitudes accordingly, Harden Up offers new ways to think about the challenges we come up against in life. It gives straightforward, honest advice for developing resilience, and concludes with practical explanations for applying these principles in the realms of parenting, relationships, the workplace and more.If you want to be happier, more successful and grow a thicker skin in a world full of wimps, then this is the book for you. ABOUT THE AUTHORFelix Economakis is a chartered psychologist, clinical hypnotherapist and NLP (neurolinguistic programming) practitioner with years of counselling and life coaching experience. He runs a successful private clinic, and has appeared on a number of TV programs for the BBC, including Freaky Eaters, Panic Room and Britain s Biggest Hoarders. He is particularly interested in helping people for whom conventional therapy didn t give lasting results.
