Produktbeschreibung
People need permission to create opportunities and live their best life. The Find Your Carrot brand of motivational content is backed by scientific evidence that isn't preachy and keeps it real. In this book Dr. Jackie Berry disrupts the reader's status quo by giving them philosophical permission to pursue their dreams. This book is for young people of all ages in need of the courage, motivation, and push to pursue what they really dream rather than what they would settle for in life. In this small but filling book the author serves up a hearty plate of motivation with a piping side of reality and all seasoned liberally with spirituality. Dr. Berry gives the reader permission to follow their heart rather than their mind, or the minds of others, when choosing their life path. Find Your Carrot is about shifting one's focus away from the fear that is the stick in life's prodding, to chasing the carrot which is the ultimate reward when achieving one's deepest desires.
Autorenporträt
Jacquelyn H. Berry, Ph.D. is a Cognitive Scientist who studies expertise and human-computer interaction. As a Fulbright scholar, she studied interface switching in Arabic-English bilinguals at the American University in Cairo, Egypt. Her work focuses on how gaming can inform learning and she uses the video game Tetris as an experimental platform. Jackie also plays Tetris avidly, competing in tournaments (against much younger folks!). After returning from Egypt, Dr. Berry turned her appreciation for how learning can be augmented and became a Techprenuer by starting her own tech company. Jacquelyn is also a founding member of Artificial Intelligence for Africa and recently spoke before the United Nations in Geneva, Switzerland. Dr. Berry is also a bird lover and expresses her enthusiasm with a local television series: "Bird to the Wise," where she interviews many people about all things bird, from Falconry to raising chickens, rescuing Parrots, and much more. Jacquelyn serves as Senior Warden of her Episcopal Church, a 5-building campus with an active community, and is the current Mrs. Dutchess County, New York, scheduled to compete for the title of Mrs. New York in May. Jackie lives in Red Hook, NY with her husband and son. Jackie is new to the author scene and very much wants to help people find their true calling. She loves getting "elbows-deep" in helping people to set and attain goals. While in Egypt, Dr. Berry taught a class about the science of expertise and helped her students achieve outstanding things such as completing part of a triathlon, doing 4-minute planks, learning to play an instrument, speaking a new language, and losing 25 pounds. Her amazement in their progress led her to write this book, FIND YOUR CARROT, to help people organize their lives and hearts to be true to themselves. Jackie hopes to be the game changer in people's lives to help them flourish.
