Download or read book Old Habits written by Ben Trebilcook and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2016-03-05 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Joe Brady was cynical, exhausted-of-life and people. He sat, bare-chested, on the edge of the bed, in his boxers. His body was a road map of scars and burns. He was worn from bullets, cuts, scrapes and old stitches. He was unshaven and his hairline was heavily receded and what was left was gray and patchy. He didn't care and why should he? He didn't care too much about anything, especially fashion. Brady appeared trance-like. His eyes were glassy as he stared at the x-ray while the doctor informed him of his condition. He had metal pins in his elbow so the bones healed in alignment. They stuck out so the surgeon could remove them easily. Both his knees had depleted cartilage layers between the joints causing his bones to rub together. Osteoarthritis was a common condition for cartilage failure. Brady's left shoulder had previously shattered and he was experiencing Avascular Necrosis. Pain would become more and more severe. It would lead to a limited range of motion and invariably further pain and chronic fatigue. Getting on a plane bound for Tokyo was the last thing on his mind. Retired New York City police detective Joe Brady is invited to Tokyo by global super-brand The Oshiro Corporation, wanting to commend him for bravery and his saving of over a hundred Oshiro employees in a hostage crisis thirty years ago. Accompanied by a loyal, yet angry, friend, a reluctant Brady accepts the invitation only for a violent past to catch up with him and the truth behind The Oshiro Corporation being revealed. Trebilcook's 'Old Habits' novel formed the basis for his acclaimed speculative script for a potential sixth and final 'Die Hard' movie, entitled 'Old Habits Die Hard'.

Download or read book Habits Die Hard written by and published by Sourcebooks, Inc.. This book was released on 2013-01-01 with total page 112 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We are all creatures of habit and if you make good habits, good habits will make you. This wisdom has been around since ancient times. Aristotle once said, "We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act but a habit." Whether they are a positive force in our lives or obstacles to the goals we want to achieve, habits become ingrained through repeated actions. Habits Die Hard, by John Murphy, unpacks 10 keys to help you replace your destructive habits with constructive habits. "In my opinion, Habits Die Hard is the most important book of the three books I ordered and received. The reason that I put it first in importance is because in order for one to achieve any goals one sets, and be successful in any area, one must first examine his or her habits and find those that would hold one back from achieving the other two.

Download or read book Breaking Bad Habits written by Freek Vermeulen and published by Harvard Business Press. This book was released on 2018-10-09 with total page 166 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Could some "best practices" be...bad? Have you ever wondered why most newspapers are so large? Or why management consultants work such long hours? Or why hotels still insist on having check-in desks? Ask anyone in these industries, and their answer will be the same: "That’s the way we’ve always done it." "Best practices" may be widespread, but that doesn't mean they're effective. In many instances the opposite is true: best practices can be outdated, harmful, and a hindrance to innovation. These bad practices are all too common in organizations, and managers and executives can be blind to their pernicious effects. Since they've worked in the past, or have been adopted with success by other firms, their purpose or effectiveness is rarely questioned. As a consequence, these practices spread and persist. In Breaking Bad Habits, Freek Vermeulen, a strategist with a keen eye for the absurd, offers the tools to identify these practices and rid them from your organization. And, most of all, he presents a compelling case for how eliminating popular but outworn ideas, processes, and strategies can create new opportunities for innovation and growth. Brimming with examples of norm-defying organizations in an eclectic range of industries--including IVF clinics, hotels, newspapers, and a famous London theater--Breaking Bad Habits will make you rethink your long-held beliefs about industry norms while encouraging you to reinvigorate your business by breaking out of the status quo.

If you're having trouble changing your habits, the problem isn't you. The problem is your system.

You fall to the level of your systems. Here, you'll get a proven system that can take you to new heights. Clear is known for his ability to distill complex topics into simple behaviors that can be easily applied to daily life and work. Here, he draws on the most proven ideas from biology, psychology, and neuroscience to create an easy-to-understand guide for making good habits inevitable and bad habits impossible. Along the way, readers will be inspired and entertained with true stories from Olympic gold medalists, award-winning artists, business leaders, life-saving physicians, and star comedians who have used the science of small habits to master their craft and vault to the top of their field.

Book excerpt: The Instant-Series Presents "Instant Habits" How to Break Bad Habits and Form Good Habits Instantly! Are you suffering from a serious case of bad habits? Just go ahead admit it, we all have bad habits. Even behind a supposedly well-put image of "perfecto" that would make Picasso proud, we all do uncontrollable things: * That are embarrassing or downright turn people off...ranging from chewing mouthful too loud, spitting while talking, talking over people, cutting people off, being negatively judgmental, or snoring laugh like a pig. * That are harmful to our health...such as craving junk foods, eating before bed when on a diet, drinking too much soda with an endless sugar need, or indulging in pure alcohol or drug addiction. * That are working against our productivity...with watching TV not getting to work, or trying to work but always end up browsing the internet not getting things done fast enough and on time, always doing things last minutes causing stress and the work to suffer and turn in late. All of these are bad habits. Why are they so hard to break? Because you have done them so much for so long, they are so ingrained in you. They become a part of who you are, doing them without knowing. They become rituals you must do. Otherwise, if you steer away from doing them, you feel uncomfortably out of place, like without the air to breathe. That is why habits are so hard to change. Shouldn't go without saying...you need to form healthy good habits. It's not just about eliminating bad habits. It's about replacing them with good habits to satisfy those bad habits urges, from creeping up again, or they will. Within "Instant Habits": * How to start creating good habits now to immediately change your life for the better because habits are what you do, and what you do is who you are. * How to not only get rid of bad habits, but substitute them for good habits so they will never reappear again. * How to program your mind to destroy all your previous bad behaviors and allow healthy habits of successful people to emerge and stay. * How long does it take to break a habit and what absolutely must do to effectively change your life-long diehard habits and stay continuously motivated. * How to develop your own custom program and plan of action to follow and work through bad habits for a more productive day. * Plus, custom practical "how-to" strategies, techniques, applications and exercises to change your habits. ...and much more. Start creating your new positive habits and abandoning old negative habits now with "Instant Habits."
Download or read book Badass Habits written by Jen Sincero and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2020-12-01 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: New York Times bestselling author Jen Sincero gets to the core of transformation: habits--breaking, making, understanding, and sticking with them like you've never stuck before. Badass Habits is a eureka-sparking, easy-to-digest look at how our habits make us who we are, from the measly moments that happen in private to the resolutions we loudly broadcast (and, erm, often don't keep) on social media. Habit busting and building goes way beyond becoming a dedicated flosser or never showing up late again--our habits reveal our unmet desires, the gaps in our boundaries, our level of self-awareness, and our unconscious beliefs and fears. Badass Habits features Jen's trademark hilarious voice and offers a much-needed fresh take on the conventional wisdom and science that shape the optimism (or pessimism?) around the age-old topic of habits. The book includes enlightening interviews with people who've successfully strengthened their discipline backbones, new perspective on how to train our brains to become our best selves, and offers a simple, 21 day, step-by-step guide for ditching habits that don't serve us and developing the habits we deem most important. Habits shouldn't be impossible to reset--and with healthy boundaries, knowledge of--and permission to go after--our desires, and an easy to implement plan of action, we can make any new goal a joyful habit.

Book excerpt: A freezer full of body parts is the tip of the criminal iceberg for Perth cop Eve Rock. The festive season has spawned a spate of murders, robberies and abductions, which actually reassures Eve that others' bad habits far exceed her own. It also gives her a watertight excuse to avoid hanging out with her dysfunctional family while spending time with her two gorgeous colleagues and would-be lovers, Quinn Fox and his son Adam. A win-win situation. Butchered bodies used for questionable purposes, a murdered man in a skip, a brazen multi-million dollar haul from a high-end jewellers and posh art gallery are all in a day's work for Eve and her team. Now usually Eve relishes getting stuck into solving crimes, but she's not so keen when she's the target and the boundaries between work and home become nastily blurred. But who is trying to kill her this time? And why? And who are the strange people wandering around her temporary digs late at night? And why is her mum the nun acting more weird than usual? And why is she such a pushover when it comes to the men in her life? All will be revealed - but only if Eve can survive to work everything out.
