Short Description of the Book from the Book
• Education is an odd business because even educated people can be ignorant of life skills. For example, you can have a Master’s degree and still have never been taught and encouraged by most of your teachers “how to think critically” but only “what to think and regurgitate.”
• Life Skills: 10 Mental Skills focuses on teaching you ten thinking skills that will improve your relationships, career, and general success in life. Once you understand the skills and persistently practice them, you will notice improvements in all areas of your life.
• The book’s message is simple: using the life skills taught in this book will make your own life better. Once you achieve that, you can pay it forward by teaching those same skills to everyone you can to help them live better lives.
• This book is intentionally short. Suppose you wish to understand better or develop the mental skills that most inspire or intrigue you. In that case, you can pursue the materials recommended throughout the book.
About the author
After more than twenty-five years in the counseling field, Mr. FitzMaurice has refined many principles and methods of counseling. He now puts those principles and methods into book form to share them with a wider audience, so more people can benefit than he can reach in person. He has more than forty books, most of which are available worldwide from Amazon and other sources.
Mr. FitzMaurice has a variety of formal and advanced training in counseling, which includes Addictions Counseling, Family Therapy, advanced Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy (REBT), Transactional Analysis (TA), and over 1,650 hours of diverse training for continuing education units (CEUs).
To make the best use of that extensive training, he takes an integrative approach, grounding himself in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (REBT and CBT) and using the other theories to build upon that one core theory, rather than focusing on multiple theories and mastering none of them.
His writings and interests focus on philosophy, psychology, recovery, self-help, and spirituality.
