The Crooked Rim motivates, inspires and empowers all readers with practical tools and strategies to master their own mindset, strengthen personal resilience and develop resilient teams, and perform like a corporate athlete to manage elevated expectations and insurmountable stress. Through The Crooked Rim, Pam Borton inspires hope, confidence, and a powerful belief that resilience and mental toughness are attainable. For more than 30 years, she has coached these principles and guided elite NCAA players and now corporate athletes to their own Final Fours...and she shows readers that they can do it, too. It is a personal playbook to master one’s own mindset for success. It is filled with real-life experiences, positive psychology and well-being exercises, emotional intelligence insights, best practices, successes and failures–everything an individual needs to be resilient and mentally tough in the game of life. The Crooked Rim teaches readers practical tools and strategies to master a tougher mindset, strengthen personal resilience and develop resilient teams, and perform like a corporate athlete to manage elevated expectations and insurmountable stress. It takes a holistic approach to navigate barriers and to deliver the level of excellence stakeholders expect today. It takes optimizing more than one aspect of life to achieve sustainable success. It takes the same approach elite athletes use to train to be the best – they focus on the physical, mental, emotional, and purposeful aspects of their lives. While corporate athletes must train in the same way to perform at their best, most try to accomplish this without the knowledge or coaching. The mind is the most powerful muscle in the body, and it can either propel one to new heights or prevent one from fulfilling their dreams. In The Crooked Rim, Pam shows how to build the mental muscle required to reach the next level and experience your own final four.

Craving and Salvation
Author: Bruce Matthews

Publisher: Wilfrid Laurier Univ. Press
Release Date: 2006-01-01
Is there any escape form the awareness of pain and the bonds of an unending cycle of life? Why are human subject to craving" What is the nature human beings? The Buddhist understanding of salvation is based upon such queries. A thorough grasp of the function of craving in religious life is strategic to an understanding of Buddhism, yet its role in the Buddhist plan of salvation is easy to oversimplify and misinterpret. Matthews examines the concept of craving in Buddhism from both a phenomenological and religious perspective. He btings to the task a critical examination of key canonical texts of the Sutta Pitaka (Nikayas) as well as extensive travel in research of the meaning of craving for contemporary Buddhists, from learned monks to lay villagers. Having established the Buddhist perspective on how craving arises, how it affects the mind, and how it can be redirected, the volume concludes with spiritual implications of craving: crucial to awareness and freedom—emancipation—is the engagement and harnessing rather than suppression of craving. The volume will be of interest to students of Buddhism, historians of religion, and persons interested in basic human questions.
