Slim by Design by Brian Wansink Pdf

In this paradigm-shattering book, leading behavioural economist and food psychologist Brian Wansink - dubbed the 'Sherlock Holmes of food' and the 'wizard of why' - offers a radical new philosophy for weight loss. The answer isn't to tell people what to do: it's to set up their living environments so that they will naturally lose weight. Using cutting-edge, never-before-seen research from his acclaimed Food and Brand Lab at Cornell University, Wansink reveals how innovative and inexpensive design changes - from home kitchens to restaurants, from grocery stores to schools and workplaces - can make it mindlessly easy for people to eat healthier and make it more profitable for the companies who sell the food. In Slim by Design, Wansink argues that the easiest, quickest and most natural way to reverse weight gain is to work with human nature, not against it. He demonstrates how schools can nudge kids to take an apple instead of a cookie, how restaurants can increase profits by selling half-size portions, how supermarkets can double the amount of fruits and vegetables they sell, and how anyone can cut plate refills at home by more than a third. Interweaving drawings, charts, floor plans and scorecards with new scientific studies and compelling insights that will make you view your surroundings in an entirely fresh way, this entertaining, eye-opening book offers practical solutions for changing your everyday environment to make you, your family and even your community slim by design.

Victory Lap Retirement by Mike Drak,Rob Morrison,Jonathan Chevreau Pdf

The key to a happy retirement may be . . . not retiring. Work because you want to, not because you have to, to achieve balance, health, and purpose in your life after full-time employment. Retirees are living longer than ever before and many will have to finance as many years in retirement as they had in their entire working career. So now, the old idea of full-stop retirement - going from 100 per cent work mode to 100 per cent leisure mode - is neither sustainable nor desirable. Besides, many studies have shown that those who stay engaged, challenged, and stimulated stay healthier and live longer. Continuing to work to some degree after you have left your full-time career can actually improve your health and increase your lifespan. The key is to work because you want to and not because you have to. Instead of continuing to run the organizational rat race or being stuck on the treadmill of life, you can learn how to break through the finish line of financial independence and plan your own Victory Lap, a blend between work and play that each person intentionally designs for themselves. This book explains the concept of Victory Lap Retirement, outlines the benefits, and shows you how to plan for your own unique Victory Lap - the post-employment lifestyle that's right for you - allowing you to live life to the fullest, on your terms, while you are young enough to enjoy it. The second edition contains new information on decumulation, strategies retirees can use to safely draw down their assets to help finance their Victory Lap, as well as many additional examples. "This wise book rests on some important truths: We all crave lives of meaning, we want to continue to grow and learn throughout our years, and financial well-being is central to our health and happiness. Victory Lap Retirement is a how-to guide for making all of those goals come together into a truly modern retirement plan." Christine Benz, Director of Personal Finance and Senior Columnist, Morningstar, Inc. "[The authors] say the full-stop retirement doesn't work anymore, and I agree. Start planning your Victory Lap." - Rob Carrick, Personal Finance Columnist, The Globe and Mail "I've long believed that the idea of retiring at sixty-five is as outdated as the horse and buggy. You could live another thirty years or more. What are you going to do with that time? This book can help you find the answers." - Gordon Pape, Bestselling Author and Publisher of The Internet Wealth Builder and The Income Investor "Victory Lap Retirement provides a great model for finding the right balance between today and tomorrow, work and play, family and self, financial independence and fun. It's a brilliant roadmap for being deliberate about your priorities and to avoid ending up just being a cog in the wheel of life. The authors masterfully leverage their personal experience and the lessons learned from working with thousands of clients, bucking the tired old model of retirement and instead offering readers a detailed roadmap to deliberately create a far more meaningful, interesting, and fulfilling second half of life." - Brent Brodeski, CEO, Savant Capital Management "The authors reframe the idea of retirement as a smart twist on an age-old dilemma. The science of well-being later in life tells us we need to have a purpose - why not make a few bucks while you're at it? This book will open your mind to what your Victory Lap might be if the thought of doing nothing at some point is foreign to you." - Larry Berman, Host of BNN Bloomberg's Berman's Call, and Chief Investment Officer, ETF Capital Management

Longevity Lifestyle by Design by Mike Drak,Susan Williams,Reid Stone,Lori Becker,Scott Fulton,Simon Chan Pdf

"Retiring from work is simple. Figuring out what you are going to do with the rest of your life is the hard part. The decision to retire is one of the most important choices you will ever make, and you don’t want to screw this one up because it is going to impact the quality of the next twenty to thirty (or more) years of your life. Whether you’ve been dreaming of a life of leisure all your working years, you’ve just retired and are unsure about what lies ahead, or you’ve been forced into retirement, it can be a stressful time. Most people are worried about having enough money saved for retirement; but financial planning alone, without lifestyle planning, is a ticket to Retirement Hell. This phase of life comes with significant emotional, psychological, physical, and social implications, and many people are unprepared for what they will be facing."--Amazon.

You Need More Money by Matt Manero Pdf

Whoever you are, whatever your financial situation, I'm here to give you a wake-up call, my friend. Twenty-five years ago, I set off on my own with nothing but a folding table and a phone. For years, real success eluded me. I told people I was doing well when I was often on the edge of being broke. Millions of people face the same plight--including my beloved brother-in-law, who died tragically before he could fix his money problems. That was MY wake-up call. I knew I needed more money, but I didn't know how to get it. I only turned things around by getting honest with myself, taking responsibility for my situation, and figuring out some practical solutions. Now I'm going to show you how to do the same. In polite society, we don't like to talk about money. But it's too important to tiptoe around. In these pages, you and I are going to cut the BS and get real. For starters, I'll help you understand . . . • How the money has moved. Stop making decisions based on advice that worked decades ago, but no longer. • The dangers of living in a "False Positive." It's easy to tell ourselves that we have enough-- until we're hit with medical bills, aging parents, tuition, or early retirement. • The cheap comfort of the blamer mind-set: It might feel good to blame the government, the economy, or your boss for your troubles, but it won't change anything. Do you want an excuse, or do you want more money? • The power of "Lifestyle by Design." Visualize your long-term goal and work backward to figure out how to get there. • The trade-offs of being an employer or employee. You can get rich by starting a business or by rising to the top of an existing organization. Let's figure out what's right for you. It's going to take grit and guts, but if you follow my road map, you'll start accumulating real wealth, the kind that lets you live the life of your dreams and lasts for generations to come.

Designing Your New Work Life by Bill Burnett,Dave Evans Pdf

From the authors of the #1 New York Times bestseller Designing Your Life comes a revised, fully up-to-date edition of Designing Your New Work Life, a timely, urgently needed book that shows us how to transform our new uncharted work life into a meaningful dream job or company. With practical, useful tools, tips, and design ideas that show us how to navigate disruption (global, regional, or personal) and create new possibilities for our post-COVID work world and beyond. Bill Burnett and Dave Evans successfully taught graduate and undergraduate students at Stanford University and readers of their best-selling book, Designing Your Life ("The prototype for a happy life." —Brian Lehrer, NPR), that designers don't analyze, worry, think, complain their way forward; they build their way forward. And now more than ever, we all need creative and adaptable tools to cope with the chaos caused by COVID-19. In Designing Your New Work Life, Burnett and Evans show us how design thinking can transform our present job, and how it can improve our experience of work in times of disruption. All disruption is personal, write Burnett and Evans, as with the life-altering global pandemic we are living through now. Designing Your New Work Life makes clear that disruption is the new normal, that it is here to stay and that it is accelerating. And in the book's new chapters, Burnett and Evans show us step by step, how to design our way through disruption and how to stay ahead of it—and thrive. Burnett and Evans's Disruption Design offers us a radical new concept that makes use of the designer mindsets: Curiosity, Reframing, Radical collaboration, Awareness, Bias to action, Storytelling, to find our way through these unchartered times. In Designing Your New Work Life, Burnett and Evans show us, with tools, tips, and design ideas, how we can make new possibilities available even when our lives have been disrupted (be it globally, regionally, or personally), giving us the tools to enjoy the present moment and allowing us to begin to prototype our possible future.
