Anthony Robbins

2014

Tony Robbins turns to the topic that vexes us all: How to secure financial freedom for ourselves and for our families. “If there were a Pulitzer Prize for investment books, this one would win, hands down” (Forbes). Tony Robbins is one of the most revered writers and thinkers of our time. People from all over the world—from the disadvantaged to the well-heeled, from twenty-somethings to retirees—credit him for giving them the inspiration and the tools for transforming their lives. From diet and fitness, to business and leadership, to relationships and self-respect, Tony Robbins’s books have changed people in profound and lasting ways. Now, for the first time, he has assembled an invaluable “distillation of just about every good personal finance idea of the last forty years” (The New York Times). Based on extensive research and interviews with some of the most legendary investors at work today (John Bogle, Warren Buffett, Paul Tudor Jones, Ray Dalio, Carl Icahn, and many others), Tony Robbins has created a 7-step blueprint for securing financial freedom. With advice about taking control of your financial decisions, to setting up a savings and investing plan, to destroying myths about what it takes to save and invest, to setting up a “lifetime income plan,” the book brims with advice and practices for making the financial game not only winnable—but providing financial freedom for the rest of your life. “Put MONEY on your short list of new books to read…It’s that good” (Marketwatch.com).

Embedding Counselling and Communication Skills provides a step-by-step approach for those looking to gain a theoretical and practical understanding of using counselling and communication skills within the helper role and applying these skills in the context of professional practice. This revised edition is brought up to date with new content around the subjects of working online, working across difference and diversity, coaching, grief and loss and managing challenging situations. Written in a clear and accessible teaching style, this book progresses through the ‘initial helper’ communication skills that are used in everyday life, to the more complex and in-depth counselling skills required in a helper relationship. It introduces the reader to a Relational Skills model which demonstrates the phases of relationship development. The authors show what happens within each phase and identify how and when to use skills appropriately. Knowledge of reflective practice, aspects of the relationship and how to manage change ensures the text considers the full range of general and specific skills and abilities required. Learning is brought alive through the use of online video clip sessions of a real helper/client relationship giving the reader opportunities and encouragement to reflect and evaluate their learning. This book will be an essential resource for students taking an introductory counselling skills course, other trainees within the mental health sector, coaches and many other qualified professionals who wish to enhance their knowledge of embedding counselling skills into their work and practice.
