I F*cked Up. I'm Sorry.: Making Personal Accountability Sexy Again

About this book

Most people know what they need to do to improve themselves or their lives. Few take the first step or sustain the effort required to achieve those goals. In I F*cked Up. I'm Sorry., clinical psychologist Dr. Oren Amitay delivers a clear and uncompromising message: Meaningful, lasting change begins with personal accountability. Drawing on decades of clinical practice and university teaching, together with extensive knowledge of the human condition, he shows why so many people remain stuck in maladaptive mindsets, patterns, and circumstances-and how to finally get unstuck. Rather than offering simplistic reassurance or promising quick fixes, this book presents adaptive perspectives, psychological insights, provocative examples, and proven therapeutic techniques to help you: - Examine yourself and your experiences honestly and thoroughly. - Tolerate the discomfort of acknowledging the realities of your true self and the world around you. - Accept and take full ownership of your thoughts, emotions, and actions. - Recognize and recondition the unconscious dynamics that undermine you. - Capitalize on gratitude and other self-enhancing practices that optimize your mental and physical well-being. - Cultivate genuine self-control and mastery of your internal processes. - Develop the clarity, resilience, motivation, and agency needed to live in line with your values. - Advocate for yourself and act in your own best interests. - Establish yourself as an empathetic, responsible, and solid individual who is there for others while maintaining healthy boundaries. - Apologize for your mistakes and transgressions, make amends when appropriate, and foster rewarding relationships. - Embrace meaning and purpose as guiding principles for profound fulfillment. What's stopping you from taking charge of your mind and your life-and what will you do about it today?
