A raw and inspiring how-to guide that will help you recommit to your life, find your drive, and take action to stay bold, honest, and accountable for lasting happiness. “If it’s time to make a bold and courageous shift in your life, Stop Living on Autopilot is the guide you need.”—Marie Forleo, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Everything Is Figureoutable Take stock of your life: Based on your last 30 days of work (or marriage, or parenting), would your company rehire you? Would your partner immediately recommit to you? Would your children want you to continue to be their parent? The easy answer is, “Absolutely!” But it's probably not the honest answer. Your life might read like a success story, and your parents and friends might even think you have it all figured out, but you have a secret: You've stopped caring about much of anything. You feel out of place in your own life. You'd rather binge-watch Netflix than think about what's next. You're living on autopilot.

Popular speaker and success coach Antonio Neves is here to offer hard-won lessons and remind you that you do have a say—that you can reboot your life and find fulfillment right where you are. You don't have to quit your job or move to Bali to follow your passion. You do, however, need to shift your perspective and commit to living courageously, replacing passivity with boldness. Stop Living on Autopilot will guide you to confront hard truths about where you are and how you got there, inviting compassion, honesty, and accountability. There's no better time than now to reevaluate your life and lay a stronger foundationfor your next 30 days. Step by step, you can become an active player in your own life and rediscover what makes you great.

Synopsis Life on Autopilot by : Joe Perkins

Drawing on the author's experience of depersonalization disorder (DPD), this book aims to provide support, understanding and advice on how to manage everyday life with DPD. With insight from respected figures in the field and those with lived experience, the book details the depersonalization experience, from what it is to the impact it has on everyday life. It also offers coping strategies and practical, positive advice for seeking professional treatment. In both the public and clinical spheres, awareness of DPD is low and it takes an average of 7-12 years to diagnose. This is therefore a much-needed resource, illuminating the experience of those living with this disorder and providing guidance on getting help.

Synopsis Autopilot by : Andrew Smart

Andrew Smart wants you to sit and do nothing much more often – and he has the science to explain why. At every turn we’re pushed to do more, faster and more efficiently: that drumbeat resounds throughout our wage-slave society. Multitasking is not only a virtue, it’s a necessity. Books such as Getting Things Done, The One Minute Manager, and The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People regularly top the bestseller lists, and have spawned a considerable industry. But Andrew Smart argues that slackers may have the last laugh. The latest neuroscience shows that the “culture of effectiveness” is not only ineffective, it can be harmful to your well-being. He makes a compelling case – backed by science – that filling life with activity at work and at home actually hurts your brain. A survivor of corporate-mandated “Six Sigma” training to improve efficiency, Smart has channeled a self-described “loathing” of the time-management industry into a witty, informative and wide-ranging book that draws on the most recent research into brain power. Use it to explain to bosses, family, and friends why you need to relax – right now.

Synopsis I Have The Controls by : Manish Kumar

In this inspirational fiction, the author talks about the unlimited power and potential lying dormant in every soul, waiting to be awakened. The moment we become aware of the power within, we stop being a victim of circumstances, get off the autopilot called fate and take the reins of life in our hands. 'I Have The Controls' is about the journey of a boy from a small town who realises his dream of becoming a pilot, learns the lessons of life on the way and goes on to inspire others to follow their dreams. His Flying Instructor implants wisdom into the flying lessons and teaches him to take the flight of faith. The book shows the way - how, by aligning personal desires to the benefit of mankind, it is possible to lead a deeply rich and satisfying life. Manish Kumar has penned this extremely enjoyable story using flying as a metaphor. Peppered with the author's insights, this book is sure to touch and inspire you to break the shackles of self-limiting beliefs and to take off in life. Foreword by John Harricharan: I lead a hectic life and generally cannot answer the tens of thousands of emails that come to me every month. Much as I would like to respond, it's almost practically impossible. And so it was that I came upon a note sent to me by Manish Kumar. I don't quite remember when it started, but I kept seeing his name here and there, sometimes on my FaceBook page, other times through something a dear friend, Yasminder Verdi, would mention in an email. And that is how I got to know Manish. It is not that we had met or had daily conversations. After all, he lives on the other side of the planet from where I am. It's more like his spirit was shining so brightly through his words and across the miles that I had to stop and take note. I am happy, very happy that I did. Why am I happy about this? Because I was given an opportunity to discover a rare treasure. You see, Manish had written a book called "I Have the Controls." He was kind enough to send me a draft copy to look at. I thought I would just glance through it, but then, as I started reading, I could not put it down. Manish uses the metaphor of flying to bring us some of the most life-affirming messages possible. In simple language, he leads us into a world where we find the gentle hints of that which we need to know. His chapter, "It's all about balance" as well as his formula for success, which he refers to as "IVR" would help anyone to reach goals that may have seemed unreachable. And, NO, I will not tell you what "IVR" stands for. You will have to find out for yourself and experience the thrill of discovery, just as I did. You will be happy that you found the formula. In some ways, "I Have the Controls" reminds me of one of my favorite authors, Richard Bach. Richard's books such as "Jonathan Livingston Seagull" and "Illusions" sit in a special place on my favorite bookshelf. I go there often for guidance and wisdom. Manish's book will be on that same special bookshelf. My suggestion is that you get yourself a copy of this book and read and reread it. I think you'll find the answers to problems that have been challenging you for quite a while. And while you are at it, pick up a copy for someone near and dear to you. Share it with those you love. They will be grateful, very grateful. Thank you, Manish. Thank you for sharing your insights with us. Thank you for writing a book that has the potential to change many lives. And thank you for giving me the opportunity to read it. I look forward to reading your future books. I am sure many others will, also. John Harricharan is a world-renowned speaker, mentor, life teacher, author of the bestseller When You Can Walk On Water, Take the Boat and an incredible human being. "John Harricharan leads us along the enchanted path of enlightenment with magic, charm, love and compassion." -Dr. Deepak Chopra, author and spiritual guru.

Synopsis Thinking, Fast and Slow by : Daniel Kahneman

*Major New York Times Bestseller *More than 2.6 million copies sold *One of The New York Times Book Review's ten best books of the year *Selected by The Wall Street Journal as one of the best nonfiction books of the year *Presidential Medal of Freedom Recipient *Daniel Kahneman's work with Amos Tversky is the subject of Michael Lewis's best-selling The Undoing Project: A Friendship That Changed Our Minds In his mega bestseller, Thinking, Fast and Slow, Daniel Kahneman, world-famous psychologist and winner of the Nobel Prize in Economics, takes us on a groundbreaking tour of the mind and explains the two systems that drive the way we think. System 1 is fast, intuitive, and emotional; System 2 is slower, more deliberative, and more logical. The impact of overconfidence on corporate strategies, the difficulties of predicting what will make us happy in the future, the profound effect of cognitive biases on everything from playing the stock market to planning our next vacation—each of these can be understood only by knowing how the two systems shape our judgments and decisions. Engaging the reader in a lively conversation about how we think, Kahneman reveals where we can and cannot trust our intuitions and how we can tap into the benefits of slow thinking. He offers practical and enlightening insights into how choices are made in both our business and our personal lives—and how we can use different techniques to guard against the mental glitches that often get us into trouble. Topping bestseller lists for almost ten years, Thinking, Fast and Slow is a contemporary classic, an essential book that has changed the lives of millions of readers.

Synopsis How to Live a Good Life by : Jonathan Fields

Seriously . . . another book that tells you how to live a good life? Don’t we have enough of those? You’d think so. Yet, more people than ever are walking through life disconnected, disengaged, dissatisfied, mired in regret, declining health, and a near maniacal state of gut-wrenching autopilot busyness. Whatever is out there isn’t getting through. We don’t know who to trust. We don’t know what’s real and what’s fantasy. We don’t know how and where to begin and we don’t want to wade through another minute of advice that gives us hope, then saps our time and leaves us empty. How to Live a Good Life is your antidote; a practical and provocative modern-day manual for the pursuit of a life well lived. No need for blind faith or surrender of intelligence; everything you’ll discover is immediately actionable and subject to validation through your own experience. Drawn from the intersection of science, spirituality, and the author’s years-long quest to learn at the feet of masters from nearly every tradition and walk of life, this book offers a simple yet powerful model, the “Good Life Buckets ” —spend 30 days filling your buckets and reclaiming your life. Each day will bring a new, practical yet powerful idea, along with a specific exploration designed to rekindle deep, loving, and compassionate relationships; cultivate vitality, radiance, and graceful ease; and leave you feeling lit up by the way you contribute to the world, like you’re doing the work you were put on the planet to do. How to Live a Good Life is not just a book to be read; it’s a path to possibility, to be walked, then lived.
