Acerca de esta escucha
The holidays can bring out the worst in people and turn cheer and good tidings into "I saw that first" and "bah, humbug!" But this season, you don't have to get scrooged by other people's bad behavior. Don't Get Scrooged will show you how to avoid, appease, and even win over the Scrooges who haunt your holidays. Whether it's the salesclerk who ignores you, the unnaturally irritable boss, or the in-laws who invite themselves for a two-week stay at your house, you will always need to deal with Scrooges, grumps, and uninvited guests. Learning to handle them whenever and wherever they appear is not just optional - it's essential.
Best-selling author Richard Carlson's Don't Get Scrooged offers 50 practical and entertaining solutions to the problem of Scrooges in whatever forms they take. During the holidays this year, win the battle against bad behavior - and make your season merry again.

Life - if you've ever thought you might be doing it wrong, you're not alone. Objects in the Mirror: Thoughts on a Perfect Life from an Imperfect Person is a collection of essays that explores what it means to be alive. Like Polaroids framing the years of a troubadour and family man afflicted with an excess of self-awareness, these are stories without any clear good guys or bad guys. Instead, in each of these vignettes you will find dysfunctional humans trying to do their best and bouncing off each other in the process.

This easy-to-understand book explains the standard process from start to finish - through being completely bowled over and convinced that one has found their true soul mate to the games and tests narcissists play once the partner has been successfully seduced. This is a form of narcissistic handbook, essential to keep close at hand when our head is saying one thing but our heart is saying another.

Carlson’s storytelling is evocative of CYA
As a writer telling others about arguments to “protect “ yourself from what he calls “scrooges” this book has a good them, but leaves you feeling scrooged with a defensive style that wants to cover all the bases, but ends up not covering any. This is of course, in the style of the new generation of gurus that want to a-peace everything and everyone. leaving out the meatier aspects of our bad experiences: justice.
