The 50 success principles outlined provide direction for anyone that is seeking a more happy and successful life.

Download or read book 10 Principles To Live Peacefully written by Deepak Gupta and published by Inspirational Publishing. This book was released on 2022-05-02 with total page 101 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The real enlightenment of humans is not by avoiding or escaping life, but through it, gracefully. You know, the God is connected with emotions and hope, but humans are connected with mind and intelligence. In any century, most of the intelligent people have been failing to grasp the secret to become peaceful all the time. Predominantly when we need mental stabilization, we fail to find something meaningful in our intelligence. Most humans change in life when they experience pain. We don't essentially change with minds but with emotions. We are the creatures of emotions and that's why we get distressed in our lives even how much intelligent and educated we are. Moreover, our generation is embracing to find solutions in deep but mostly our answers are in the simple aspects of life. When the extraordinary man understands the ordinary man, the distinction starts ending. Mental pain is less dramatic than physical pain, but it is more common and also hard to bear. - C.S.

Download or read book The 48 Laws of Power written by Robert Greene and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2023-10-31 with total page 481 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Amoral, cunning, ruthless, and instructive, this multi-million-copy New York Times bestseller is the definitive manual for anyone interested in gaining, observing, or defending against ultimate control – from the author of The Laws of Human Nature. In the book that People magazine proclaimed “beguiling” and “fascinating,” Robert Greene and Joost Elffers have distilled three thousand years of the history of power into 48 essential laws by drawing from the philosophies of Machiavelli, Sun Tzu, and Carl Von Clausewitz and also from the lives of figures ranging from Henry Kissinger to P.T. Barnum. Some laws teach the need for prudence (“Law 1: Never Outshine the Master”), others teach the value of confidence (“Law 28: Enter Action with Boldness”), and many recommend absolute self-preservation (“Law 15: Crush Your Enemy Totally”). Every law, though, has one thing in common: an interest in total domination. In a bold and arresting two-color package, The 48 Laws of Power is ideal whether your aim is conquest, self-defense, or simply to understand the rules of the game.

Download or read book The Way of Peace written by Associate Professor of Philosophy James Allen and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2016-06-28 with total page 58 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Peace Begins From You Like the title says, and more importantly James Allen says in the book, "Peace Begins From You." It is then manifested in your life. The next step where selflessness and peace prevail. And when you are peaceful, then success in other areas of life become much easier. To work with a peaceful and a powerful mind is an edge and the advantage. In the beginning of the book, James Allen gives us the "Five Great Meditations" that Gautama, the Buddha, gave his disciples. 1. The first meditation is the meditation of Love, where you will even long for the welfare of your enemies. 2. The second meditation is the meditation of pity, where you will invoke compassion toward all beings in suffering. 3. The third meditation is the meditation of joy, where you will think about others' prosperity and joy and rejoice in it. 4. The fourth meditation is the meditation of impurity, where you will meditate about those little things about the "self" and how the need to immediate pleasure stop us from the truth. 5. The fifth meditation is the meditation of serenity, where you bring yourself above love & hate, tyranny and oppression, above everything toward truth. Contents of the Book: The Power of Meditation Star of Wisdom The Two Masters, Self and Truth The Acquirement of Spiritual Power The Realization of Selfless Love Entering into the Infinite Saints, Sages, and Saviors: The Law of Service The Realization of Perfect Peace Some Insights From the Book: 1. Once come to regard your failings, your sorrows and sufferings as so many voices telling you plainly where you are weak and faulty, where you fall below the true and the divine, you will then begin to ceaselessly watch yourself, and every slip, every pang of pain will show you where you are to set to work, and what you have to remove out of your heart in order to bring it nearer to the likeness of the Divine, nearer to the Perfect Love. 2. What the saints, sages, and saviors have accomplished, you likewise may accomplish if you will only tread the way which they trod and pointed out, the way of self-sacrifice, of self-denying service. 3. Truth is the one Reality in the universe, the inward Harmony, the perfect Justice, the eternal Love. Nothing can be added to it, nor taken from it. 4.Change and mortality will no more cause you anxiety and sorrow, for you will become established in the unchangeable, and will dwell in the very heart of immortality. 5. Truth in itself is not hidden and dark. It is always revealed and is perfectly transparent. But the blind and wayward self cannot perceive it. The light of day is not hidden except to the blind, and the Light of Truth is not hidden except to those who are blinded by self. Scroll Up and Grab Your Copy! Other James Allen's Paperbacks: 1.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A page-turning novel that is also an exploration of the great philosophical concepts of Western thought, Jostein Gaarder's Sophie's World has fired the imagination of readers all over the world, with more than twenty million copies in print. One day fourteen-year-old Sophie Amundsen comes home from school to find in her mailbox two notes, with one question on each: "Who are you?" and "Where does the world come from?" From that irresistible beginning, Sophie becomes obsessed with questions that take her far beyond what she knows of her Norwegian village. Through those letters, she enrolls in a kind of correspondence course, covering Socrates to Sartre, with a mysterious philosopher, while receiving letters addressed to another girl. Who is Hilde? And why does her mail keep turning up? To unravel this riddle, Sophie must use the philosophy she is learning—but the truth turns out to be far more complicated than she could have imagined.

Book excerpt: The flood of information, unprecedented transparency, increasing interconnectedness-and our global interde¬pendence-are dramatically reshaping today's world, the world of business, and our lives. We are in the Era of Behavior and the rules of the game have fundamentally changed. It is no longer what you do that matters most and sets you apart from others, but how you do what you do. Whats are commodities, easily duplicated or reverse-engineered. Sustainable advantage and enduring success for organizations and the people who work for them now lie in the realm of how, the new frontier of conduct. For almost two decades, Dov Seidman's pioneering organi¬zation, LRN, has helped some of the world's most respected companies build "do it right," winning cultures and inspire principled performance throughout their organizations. Seidman's distinct vision of the world, business, and human endeavor has helped enable more than 15 million people do¬ing business in more than 120 countries to outbehave the competition. In HOW: Why HOW We Do Anything Means Everything, Dov Seidman shares his unique approach with you. Now updated and expanded, HOW includes a new Fore¬word from President Bill Clinton and a new Preface from Dov Seidman on why how we behave, lead, govern, operate, consume, engender trust in our relationships, and relate to others matters more than ever and in ways it never has before. Through entertaining anecdotes, surprising case studies, cutting-edge research in a wide range of fields, and reveal¬ing interviews with a diverse group of leaders, business executives, experts, and everyday people on the front lines, this book explores how we think, how we behave, how we lead, and how we govern our institutions and ourselves to uncover the values-inspired "hows" of twenty-first-century success and significance. Divided into four comprehensive parts, this insightful book: Exposes the forces and factors that have fundamentally restructured the world in which organizations operate and their people conduct themselves, placing a new focus on their hows Provides frameworks to help you understand those hows and implement them in powerful and productive ways Helps you channel your actions and decisions in order to thrive uniquely within today's new realities Sheds light on the systems of how-the dynamics between people that shape organizational culture-andintroduces a bold new vision for leading and winning through self-governance The qualities that many once thought of as "soft"-values, trust, and reputation-are now the hard currency of success and the ultimate drivers of efficiency, performance, innova¬tion, and growth. With in-depth insights and practical advice, HOW will help you bring excellence and significance to your business endeavors- and your life-and refocus your efforts in powerful new ways. If you want to stand out, to thrive in our fast changing, hyper¬connected, and hypertransparent world, read this book and discover HOW.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “His ideas will help anyone who has the courage to understand that a real education must go beyond filling in circles on a standardized test form.” —Rafe Esquith, New York Times-bestselling author of Teach Like Your Hair’s on Fire Can playing a game lead to world peace? If it’s John Hunter’s World Peace Game, it just might. In Hunter’s classroom, students take on the roles of presidents, tribal leaders, diplomats, and military commanders. Through battles and negotiations, standoffs and summits, they strive to resolve a sequence of many-layered, interconnected scenarios, from nuclear proliferation to tribal warfare. Now, Hunter shares inspiring stories from over thirty years of teaching the World Peace Game, revealing the principles of successful collaboration that people of any age can apply. He offers not only a forward-thinking report from the frontlines of American education, but also a generous blueprint for a world that bends toward cooperation rather than conflict. In this deeply hopeful book, a visionary educator shows us what the future of education can be. “The World Peace Game devised by fourth-grade teacher Hunter has spread from a classroom in 1978 to a documentary, a TED Talk, the Pentagon, and now finally a book, in which he describes the ways his students have solved political and ecological crises that still loom large in the world of adults . . . Hunter’s optimism is infectious.” —Publishers Weekly “Inspired, breath-of-fresh-air reading.” — Kirkus Reviews “Hunter proves the value of ‘slow teaching’ in this important, fascinating, highly readable resource for educators and parents alike.” — Booklist

Download or read book How to Enjoy Peace in Your Life Every Day written by G. E. Wallace and published by Park Ave Pub. This book was released on 2005-08-01 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "How to Enjoy Peace in Your Life Every Day is unlike any spiritual self-help book you have ever read. Right from the opening sentence you will find yourself totally engaged in a reading experience that can transform your life. This book will call to you when you are not actually reading because the author's openness, honesty, and entertaining writing style will touch your heart and soul in a most profound manner. In a world that often seems out of control- where cell phones, personal hand-held computers, family members, and in-laws often dictate the rhythm of our days, it is no wonder that so many people are feeling less in charge of their very own lives. We feel more and more overwhelmed as time goes on and finding ways to feel peaceful in the middle of all the chaos is increasingly difficult. It does not have to be that way. You can know peace! "How to Enjoy Peace in Your Life Every Day will keep you riveted to your seat. It is a totally uplifting and highly engaging account of one man's precipitous plunge down the spiritual ladder and his subsequent miraculous recovery. With much humor and a touch of irreverence, George Wallace intimately shares the profound lessons that he learned, and how he successfully applied those lessons to his daily life, as he scratched his way out from the bottom of an emotional abyss that many of us never enter. SOME EXCERPTS FROM THE BOOK "Choosing a life of peace is in no way an abdication. The peaceful position is not a position of weakness, it does not mean that you ever accept the unacceptable, it does not mean that you lay down and allow people to roll over you, and it is not a position of 'whatever'. The position of peaceis actually the most powerful one you can occupy. It is the greatest source of entirely grounded personal strength, emotional integrity, intellectual flexibility, and spiritual freedom. Unfortunately, you cannot know that unless you choose to go there. If you are feeling any amount of emotional turmoil, unhappiness, loss of control, crazy thinking, anguish, pain, frustration, anger, or fear in your life, choosing to go there would be a very good idea." "The familiarity of pain can often be more compelling than the initial discomfort experienced when the pain is eliminated." "I did not know that joy, love, and peace do not have to be worked for as much as remembered, recognized, accepted, and given plenty of room to grow." A SAMPLING OF TESTIMONIALS "This is an important book. It will make a big difference in the life of anyone who reads it." James Degnan Hampstead, NH ..."full of compassionate wisdom." Ellen Picanso Washington, DC "This book touched me in such a profound way- a must read for anyone trying to change their way of living in a positive and peaceful manner. George has an honest, humorous, yet simple approach to such a process for that change. A heartfelt thanks for making a difference in my life." Jean Whitsett Harrison, NY "Reading this book I felt like I was sitting in my living room listening to an old friend. George's message...was like a continuing pat on the back from a friend...encouraging me to take control of my destiny." Marcia Santos Arlington, MA

Book excerpt: The life-changing international bestseller reveals a set of simple yet powerful mindfulness practices that you can incorporate into daily life to help break the cycle of anxiety, stress, unhappiness, and exhaustion.

More importantly it also works for people who are not depressed but who are struggling to keep up with the constant demands of the modern world. MBCT was developed by the book's author, Oxford professor Mark Williams, and his colleagues at the Universities of Cambridge and Toronto. By investing just 10 to 20 minutes each day, you can learn the simple mindfulness meditations at the heart of MBCT and fully reap their benefits. The book includes links to audio meditations to help guide you through the process. You'll be surprised by how quickly these techniques will have you enjoying life again.
