SUCCESS THROUGH TRANSACTIONAL ANALYSIS
-
forward by Robert L.
Goulding, M.D. (Originally published by Grosset and Dunlap, 1973)
Success Through Transactional
Analysis is the first
book specifically to apply TA principles and theories to the job
situation. In it the methods of Transactional Analysis, explored
by Eric Berne in such books as Games People Play and by Thomas
Harris in I'm OK - You're OK, are explained for men and women who
are plagued by "people problems" that impede their daily progress and
frustrate efforts to succeed. Jut Meininger, a practitioner of TA,
systematically sets out the theories of TA, offering concrete examples
of how superiors and subordinates can learn to make decisions that pay
off, and get to know themselves better. He discusses, clearly and
understandably, the Parent-Adult-Child in us, strokes, life scripts,
life positions, games, rackets, system, context; and he examines where
TA can clarify decisions, goals, and motivations. He presents the
extraordinary possibilities of TA for solving basic problems and
achieving and accomplishing one's goals. Using Transactional
Analysis, people have the ability to control what happens to them; they
can uncover and change elements of their lives and gain autonomy.
A first in its field, Success
Through Transactional Analysis will be invaluable reading for everyone
who works and hopes to get ahead.

HOW TO RUN YOUR OWN LIFE
(Originally published by Grosset and Dunlap, 1976)
(To read some quotations from How To Run
Your Own Life, visit the "Miscellaneous" section of this web site)
Everybody has a LIFE SCRIPT devised in childhood.
In this book - perhaps the most useful do-it-yourself book ever written
- one of America's foremost TA counselors shows you how to take charge
of your own life and stop living it based on what you've been told in
the past about what to think, feel, and believe by your parents, lovers,
bosses, and friends. Step by step, Jut Meininger demonstrates how
to break the cycles of self-destruction which may keep you bored,
unhappy, unfulfilled, or stuck in a dead-end job, and which can ruin
your appearance, your health, or your well-being. He helps you,
the reader, actually learn for yourself the process needed to regain
control of your own life and to go on to live the rich, fulfilling life
you've always dreamed of.
By changing what you do now, you can change the course of
your entire future. But first, you must decide what you really
want. Conceptualize your desires. Objectively observe
yourself and your environment. Learn to trust your own perceptions
and innate feelings rather than faulty prejudices and responses you've
learned in the past. Learn to act on the basis of what you want.
Refocus your energy toward effective action and away from avoiding
success. Learn to act on the basis of what you want.
In a series of delightfully readable dialogues between a
totally objective "Martian" and an "Earth Person" plagued with all the
doubt, confusion, and helplessness you now feel, the author leads you
through every step to self-discovery and the thrust toward action.
Transactional Analysis has long been recognized as a
method of developing mature, effective relationships with those around
you. Now you'll learn how to apply the principles of recognizing
your Adult, Parent, and Child responses not only so that you can achieve
personal contentment, but also to become as rich and successful as you
really want to be. Read from cover to cover, this marvelous book
produces an amazing cumulative effect rarely achieved on the printed
page.
For the first time, you can truly learn How To Run
Your Own Life and be happier, healthier, and more successful doing
it!
