If you are ready to break through the confines of where you are and discover where you are meant to be, then Instinct is your key!!--EndFragment--

Athlete Unleashed helps you navigate the second road, which allows you to break free from those shackles, find your passion, and gives you the steps to unleash your best inner athlete! Back when I was a high school baseball player, guidance and strength training for high school sports was not too advanced. The unfortunate truth is that for current athletes, the training practices have not advanced much.

They deserve a program that allows them the chance to compete at the highest level they desire, while achieving peak health and fitness. Whether you are attempting to make the team, or you are ready to achieve your next level of athletics, this is the book for you. Athlete Unleashed helps guide you to find your passion while guiding you in addressing the key components to become more successful. These components include developing the proper mindset, balancing your work effort with the appropriate recovery, specific nourishment for your needs, the right movement for your success, the steps for injury prevention, recovery from injury, and the planning for your season—as well as your future!

Download or read book Masculine Identity in the Fiction of the Arab East since 1967 written by Samira Aghacy and published by Syracuse University Press. This book was released on 2009-12-08 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book offers an exploration of masculinity in the literature of the Arab East (Lebanon, Jordan, Palestine, Syria, and Iraq) in the context of a specific set of anxieties about gender roles and sexuality in Arab societies. While gender studies in the area have focused primarily on the situation of women, the treatment of Arab men as gendered subjects has fallen behind. Samira Aghacy’s rich analysis presents gender relations not within a fixed biological mold but rather as a complex phenomenon fraught with ambivalence and operating within particular historical and geopolitical settings. Through a series of close readings of twenty contemporary Arabic novels, Aghacy presents a mosaic of masculinities that challenges the generally held view of an essentialized archetypal Arab man and that mirrors a contested vision of manliness where men figure in diverse sociocultural environments. This groundbreaking work reveals the volatile nature of masculinity and its inextricability from femininity.

Download or read book The Incredible Value of Employee Power written by Robertson Hunter Stewart and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2019-06-28 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a book about the incredible source of largely untapped power which exists within organisations and companies today, namely your employees. It explains why this is the case and what to do about it. The main paradigm of the book is that employees are the most important resource for any organisation and should be treated as such; companies need more than ever to become employee centric.Both now and in the future, key themes such as autonomy, empowerment and employee engagement will become the foundations upon which companies will build competitive advantage. Building confidence and trust will become more and more crucial to success. As I say in the book: "Empowerment is also to do with confidence and trust. If you think about the concepts of confidence and trust in your life outside of work, I am sure that most of you would agree that, if there is no trust within, for example, a family unit, there is a great likelihood that this will lead to a serious problem."About the author: Robertson Hunter Stewart's experience as an employee has now stretched over a period of 36 years (56-years-old at the time of writing) and he has spent the last 26 years in the service sector. Arriving in France in 1992 (and speaking no French), Stewart worked his way up from cleaner to General Manager of some of the biggest Luxury Hotels in Europe (three of which with over a thousand rooms). He has led teams from a few to several hundred during his career.He also continues to teach in both French and English at Bachelors and Masters Level for prestigious Management schools in Paris, France.As he says in his first book: "As both an employee and a manager, I strongly believe that the way that we are treated within an organisation impacts to a very high degree on how we behave as employees and, following on from that, how we perform."Stewart lives in the West of France with his wife and two children.https: //www.linkedin.com/in/robertson-hunter-stewart-90538b1a/

Download or read book Young Michelangelo written by John T. Spike and published by Abrams. This book was released on 2012-08-01 with total page 459 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this biography, the author of the acclaimed Caravaggio examines therelationships that shaped Michelangelo’s first thirty years. In this compelling account, renowned art historian John Spike paints a vivid portrait of one of the world’s greatest artists and the places and people—Lorenzo de’ Medici, Leonardo, Machiavelli—that inspired and defined his early life and career. Spike’s masterful text probes the thinking, evolution, and desires of a young man whose awareness of his exceptional talent never wavered. Michelangelo’s complex personality is revealed through lively examinations of the Pietà, the David, and all other major works. Drawing on a rich background of Italian Renaissance politics and culture, Spike deftly navigates the fiery Florentine master’s struggle to surpass da Vinci’s artistic mastery, and his troubled relationships with Julius II and other key figures of the era. Praise for Young Michelangelo “Spike, an art historian, curator and critic, has done some impressive research to flesh out the early years of the artist’s life, right up until his return to Rome in 1508 to focus on a commission in the Sistine Chapel. The young sculptor’s daunting talent and quest to earn as much money as possible are woven into the story of the Italian Renaissance and the outsized figures of the age.” —The Washington Post “Spike crystallizes historical detail into vivid, memorable imagery. . . . Alternating between accounts of the turbulent political atmosphere and details of Michelangelo’s most private moments in the sculpture studio, Spike creates a rich narrative that promises more intrigue than the best adventure novel.” —Publishers Weekly “Such a comprehensive account of the master’s early life and rise to fame amid the political upheaval in the Papal States and Florentine Republic.” —Art + Auction
Download or read book Unleashing Growth and Strengthening Resilience in the Caribbean written by Mr.Krishna Srinivasan and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2017-11-13 with total page 378 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides a diagnosis of the central economic and financial challenges facing Caribbean policymakers and offers broad policy recommendations for promoting a sustained and inclusive increase in economic well-being. The analysis highlights the need for Caribbean economies to make a concerted effort to break the feedback loops between weak macroeconomic fundamentals, notably pertaining to fiscal positions and financial sector strains, and structural impediments, such as high electricity costs, limited financial deepening, violent crime, and brain drain, which have depressed private investment and growth. A recurring theme in the book is the need for greater regional coordination in finding solutions to address the Caribbean’s shared and intertwined macroeconomic and structural challenges. The analysis suggests that strengthening regional and global market integration of Caribbean economies would provide an impetus to sustained growth in incomes and jobs. Greater regional and global economic integration would also facilitate structural transformation and a shift toward new economic activities, resulting in more diversified and less vulnerable economies. A central challenge for the Caribbean is thus to come together as a region, overcome the limitations posed by size, and garner the benefits of globalization. Efforts should build on existing regional arrangements; accelerating progress in implementing these agreements would stimulate trade. Policymakers could also promote deeper integration with Latin America and the rest of the world by pursuing new trade agreements, leveraging current agreements more effectively, or deepening them to include areas beyond traditional trade issues, and developing port and transport infrastructure.
