The Power of Discomfort (eBook, ePUB)

Beschreibung

WHAT WAS THE GREAT DISCOMFORT OF YOUR LIFE, WHICH, HAD IT NOT HAPPENED, YOU WOULDN'T HAVE GOTTEN TO WHERE YOU ARE? Have you ever stopped to think about how the feeling of discomfort motivates us to run after our dreams? Without the nuisance, the uneasiness, the unpleasantness, the difficulty, in short, the discomfort, we wouldn't leave our safe zone and, much less, try to improve our reality. It is necessary to be uncomfortable in order to transform and even to dream. In The Power of Discomfort you will realize how essential this feeling is for all of us to achieve the transformations we seek, leaving behind a lukewarm, dull life. With inspiring words, José Luiz Tejon takes us on a journey through our inner restlessness and teaches us how we can achieve our best through this feeling that is so present in our lives and, at the same time, so transformative. Here you will learn how to: - Identify the seven types of discomfort that are real tools: "fly", "poor me" (victimization), "head against the wall", values, "online fake", apocalyptic (entropic), and divine (syntropic). - Identify when the discomfort is legitimate or just an attempt to escape from the problem. - Apply the 8Cs method (named after its Portuguese acronym)-Courage, Trust, Cooperation, Creation, Consciousness, Achievement, Correction, and Character-in everyday life. - Face life's worries and discomforts without fear, thus avoiding alienation and hopelessness. - Trace the path to a life full of joy and fulfillment.

Autor

José Luiz Tejon Megido is the result of deep and real troubles. He is an adopted son and, as early as the age of 4, his face was deformed by a severe burn. This transformation made him spend about twelve years semi-inpatient in hospitals, facing the reality of life with friends from his street, in public schools, and constantly hearing the voice of his adoptive father, who used to say: "son, you can't be ashamed of yourself, but you do need to be honorable." Tejon holds a PhD in Education Sciences from the Universidad de la Empresa (UDE), in Uruguay, a master's degree from Mackenzie University, and specializations from Harvard, MIT and Insead. He is currently an MBA professor at Audencia, in Nantes, France, and coordinator of the Agribusiness Center at Fundação Escola de Comércio Álvares Penteado (FECAP), in São Paulo. He is also partner-director of Biomarketing at TCA International and was a director for the groups O Estado de S. Paulo, Agroceres and Jacto S/A. An awarded professional, he was elected Top of Mind speaker of the country by the Estadão RH Award. His lectures reach listeners in several countries and he has 34 published books (authored and co-authored), including the bestsellers O voo do cisne, O beijo na realidade, A grande virada, Liderança para fazer acontecer, O código da superação, and Warriors Are Not Born Ready, all published by Editora Gente. Tejon has four children, a grandson, and two granddaughters-the latest arrived along with this book. For him, his extensive resumé is the result of education and cradle learning about not waiting for ready perfection, but rather, always seek to perfect the imperfect, turning discomforts into tools of the will to live.
