In 1986, the bad guys of baseball won the World Series. Now, Erik Sherman, the New York Times bestselling coauthor of Mookie, profiles key players from that infamous Mets team, revealing never-before-exposed details about their lives after that championship year…as well as a look back at the magical season itself.      Darryl Strawberry, Doc Gooden, Keith Hernandez, Lenny Dykstra, Mookie Wilson, Howard Johnson, Doug Sisk, Rafael Santana, Bobby Ojeda, Wally Backman, Kevin Mitchell, Ed Hearn, Danny Heep, and the late Gary Carter were all known for their heroics on the field. For some of them—known as the “Scum Bunch”—their debauchery off the field was even more awe-inspiring. But when that golden season ended, so did their aura of invincibility. Some faced battles with addiction, some were traded, and others struggled just to keep their lives together.    Through interviews with these legendary players, Erik Sherman offers fans a new perspective on a team that will forever be remembered in sports history.INCLUDES PHOTOS

Psychologist and motivational blogger Benjamin Hardy, PhD, shows you why self-transformation is easier to achieve than you think, at any stage of life. Does your past determine who you are? Past experiences and traumas can trap people in unhealthy attitudes and behaviors, but organizational psychologist Dr. Benjamin Hardy shows you why that doesn''t have to be the case. Rather than being defined by the past, a person''s internal narrative can be based on their desired future. They can set committed goals, craft their identity to match those goals, and then act consistently to meet those goals. In due process, their internal identity will evolve into their external personality.Hardy draws on both psychological research and practical, motivational advice, to demolish the popular misconception that personality--a person''s consistent attitudes and behaviors--is innate and unchanging.In Personality Isn''t Permanent, you''ll learn:  •  Why you should never be the "former anything". Defining yourself by your past successes can be just as damaging to your potential to grow as being haunted by past failures.  •  Why regularly putting yourself in new and unfamiliar situations is the best way to create personality change.  •  Why you should measure your progress by how much you''ve grown, rather than what you lack.  •  How adopting a persona can boost your confidence and help you accomplish things that might otherwise feel "out of character" for you.  •  How focusing on your physical health can help you achieve personality change - because personality is shaped in the mind and the body.Along the way, you''ll hear fascinating true stories of radical self-transformation, from Dean Karnazes, who quit his corporate job and began a running career after a spontaneous 30-mile run on his 30th birthday; Josh Waitzkin, a teen chess prodigy who trained himself to become a world-class long-distance swimmer after a near-drowning experience; and Hardy himself, who transcended his childhood in a broken home, surrounded by issues of addiction and mental illness, to get his PhD and build a happy family.Filled with future-focused and vision-driven tips and exercises, Personality Isn''t Permanent is your practical guide to transcending your limitations and becoming the person you always wanted to be.
