Synopsis:

Following on from his bestsellers "Mythos Motivation" and "Das Prinzip Selbstverantwortung", Sprenger describes in his book "The Decision is yours" an alternative to the present-day attitude of complaining: to make decisions, use opportunities and realise ideas.

Happiness is the outcome of self-dependence and decisive actions.

ISBN: 3499174898 (German Version)
Synopsis:

Therapists use their understanding of communication psychology to help people. However, this understanding is not the private property of psychologists but belongs to everybody. Both volumes were written to bridge the gap between science and everyday life, they are easy to read and include many examples, illustrations and exercises. Many things can go wrong when we talk to each other. Successful communication does not just depend on 'good will' but also on the ability to recognise and understand emotional processes and interpersonal misunderstandings when individuals try to communicate. The psychology of interpersonal communication has a lot to offer in the field of improving personal and factual understanding. "Talking together" offers you the tools to analyse common breakdowns in communication and hints on how to understand yourself, the content and the relationships. When a person speaks his communication contains 4 revealing psychological elements: self-presentation, factual content, relational content and response. This book deals with those typical problems connected with each of these 4 aspects which concern us all in some way. By comparison the second volume concentrates on the different communication styles of different people and offers various possibilities for personality development based on the style of the individual.
