Master Your Fears How to Triumph over Your Worries and Get on with Your Life
If fear is part of the fabric of your life, this important book will show you another way to live. Master Your Fears is a bold, innovative work that redefines fear while giving you hope and practical advice. Dr. Linda Sapadin views fear not as an anxiety disorder requiring medication but rather as a pattern of experience that has been learned--and that can be unlearned.
For more than twenty years, Dr. Sapadin has helped patients live better so that fear no longer dominates their lives. Now, in this breakthrough book, she shares these strategies and skills.
First, Dr. Sapadin explains how and why some people become prey to excessive fear. While reading the dramatic case stories of people Dr. Sapadin has worked with, you’ll explore the five fearful lifestyles: shy, hypervigilant, compliant, macho, and controlling. You’ll learn how these styles affect you personally and professionally and how they influence your thoughts, words, actions, and relationships.
Then she shares her proven eight-step program for triumphing over your fears and leading a richer life. With the help of illuminating insights and exercises, you’ll discover how much better life can be when you are more relaxed and confident.

It's About Time The 6 Styles of Procrastination and How to Overcome Them
As Will Rogers once said, “Even if you’re on the right track, you’ll get run over if you just sit there.”
Essentially, procrastination is caused by an internal conflict: You want or need to do something but you are resistant toward doing it. In effect, this blockage of energy functions as an approach-avoidance conflict: Like a Hamlet in the world of action, you’re torn between two impulses—to do or not to do. Far from being lazy, as the stereotype would suggest, chronic procrastinators generally have sufficient energy—it just doesn’t flow smoothly from mental preparation to physical execution.
It’s About Time! begins by helping chronic procrastinators understand the inner conflict that produces their self-defeating pattern. Without that knowledge, the predisposition to procrastinate continues to sabotage efforts to change. Once you know your procrastination style: perfectionist, dreamer, worrier, defier, crisis-maker, overdoer. you can learn skills and strategies for change, specifically geared to your particular style.
It’s About Time! provides a 3-prong approach to change, helping you modify negative thinking, speaking and acting patterns that fuel procrastination. This approach will help you break the pattern. It will teach you how to move from a path of avoidance to a path of resolution.
Don’t procrastinate. Take the quiz. Read the book. Don’t just sit there! Get on the road to making things happen!
