Book Description
El Dr. Bob Rotella es hoy en dia uno de los asesores de juego de mayor prestigio en Estados Unidos. Entre sus numerosos clientes profesionales se encuentran Nick Price (nombrado Jugador del Ano, en 1994), Tom Kite, Davis Love III, Pat Bradley, Brad Faxon, John Daly y muchos mas. Rotella o 'Doc', como carinosamente le llama la mayoria de ellos, va mas alla de los conocidos aspectos mentales del juego y de la consolidacion de tecnicas especificas. Lo que Rotella consigue en este extraordinario libro, ademas de lo que logra con sus propios clientes, es crear una actitud y disposicion mental que abarcan todos los aspectos del juego del golf, desde la preparacion mental hasta la competicion. Y lo que es mas asombroso, lo consigue con un estilo coloquial y una combinacion variada de anecdotas y lecciones. Como atestiguan algunos de los mejores jugadores del mundo, los resultados son espectaculares. Los golfistas mejoraran su juego y se divertiran mas jugando al golf. Algunas de sus citas son: * En el primer tee, un golfista debe esperar solo dos cosas: divertirse y centrar de forma correcta su mente en cada golpe.* Un golfista debe aprender a aceptar el desafio cuando envia la bola al rough, a los arboles o al bunker. Las alternativas rabia, miedo, lamentaciones y trampas no solucionan nada.* La confianza es crucial para un buen golf. La confianza es simplemente la suma de pensamientos que tienes de ti mismo.* Es mas importante ser decidido que ser exacto cuando estas preparando cualquier golpe, especialmente un putt.
Resiliencia, gestión del naufragio

Book Description
Superar la adversidad es la asignatura pendiente del siglo XXI. Todos a lo largo de nuestra vida nos enfrentaremos a situaciones traumáticas ¿Cómo afrontarlas en positivo? ¿Cómo desarrollar una respuesta resiliente? Las personas entrevistadas en este libro constituyen la mejor demostración de cómo se puede gestionar el naufragio. Todos ellos han pasado por difíciles tempestades que la vida les ha presentado pero ninguno ha naufragado. En unos casos han superado duros procesos de enfermedad y en otros afrontado la muerte de un ser querido o se han enfrentado a momentos críticos en los que o bien salían adelante o bien perdían todo lo que hasta ese momento habían conseguido. Se trata de Larry Bensadon, Anna Ferrer, Ángel García, Rosa García, Jesús Hernández, Helena Herrero, Jesús Higueras, Sandra Ibarra, Miguel Ángel Jiménez, Pilar Muro, Sara Navarro, Carlos Pauner, Teresa Silva y Enrique Varela. Resiliencia. Gestión del naufragio ofrece una guía para sobreponernos a las dificultades, aprender de nuestros errores, superar los obstáculos y salir fortalecidos de nuestras propias experiencias. El desarrollo de la resiliencia aporta una nueva mirada esperanzadora y positiva. Y es que, como dicen los cinco autores, «los tiempos que vivimos son para las personas resilientes. No son las políticas las que nos van a sacar de la situación actual, sino aquellos que sean capaces de estar por encima de la crisis. La causa es humana y no económica, y la solución también».

Golf for Enlightenment
Author: Deepak Chopra, M.D.
Publisher: Harmony
ISBN: 140005088X
Category : Sports & Recreation
Languages : en
Pages : 210
Book Description
Deepak Chopra has discovered the delights—and frustrations—of golf, and he is passionate about the game. Confronted by the wild ups and downs of his own play, he consulted with golf professionals and developed a new approach to the game that any golfer can follow—from the novice to the expert. The results can be measured not only in increased enjoyment and skill, but also in greater wisdom about life beyond the 18th hole. Chopra’s own game has improved dramatically since incorporating the elements of his program. Instead of focusing on the mechanics of a “perfect” swing, Chopra reveals how golf can be mastered through mindfulness, a form of awareness that combines sharp focus and relaxation at the same time. Expanded awareness, he tells us, can accomplish much more than external mechanics to improve one’s game. But Golf for Enlightenment is also an engrossing story about Adam, an Everyman who is playing a terrible round of golf when he meets a mysterious young teaching pro named Leela. In seven short but profound lessons detailing spiritual strategies, she teaches Adam the essence of a game that has much to explain about life itself. Chopra has spent the last year taking the unique message in Golf for Enlightenment nationwide, teaching the essential tenets of his program at lectures and seminars to golfers everywhere. His message continues to help players turn an obsession into a positive life path.

A World for Julius
Author: Alfredo Bryce Echenique
Publisher: Univ of Wisconsin Press
ISBN: 9780299196745
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 460
Book Description
Julius was born in a mansion on Salaverry Avenue, directly across from the old San Felipe Hippodrome. Life-size Disney characters and cowboy movie heroes romp across the walls of his nursery. Out in the carriage house, his great-grandfather's ornate, moldering carriage takes him on imaginary adventures. But Julius's father is dead, and his beautiful young mother passes through her children's lives like an ephemeral shooting star. Despite the soft shelter of family and money, hard realities overshadow Julius's expanding world, just as the rugged Andes loom over his home in Lima. This lyrical, richly textured novel, first published in 1970 as Un mundo para Julius, opens new territory in Latin American literature with its focus on the social elite of Peru. In this postmodern novel Bryce Echenique incisively charts the decline of an influential, centuries-old aristocratic family faced with the invasion of foreign capital in the 1950s. Winner of the Outstanding Translation Award of the American Literary Translators Association and the Columbia University Translation Center Award.
