Book excerpt: A mindset is a fixed mental attitude that predetermines a person’s responses to (and interpretations of) situations. Essentially, our mindset determines our behaviour. Developing the best mindset is the way you can learn something new, adopt new information, alter your beliefs and act accordingly. It’s important to adjust our mindsets to survive and thrive in the real world. Experts agree that our mindset is not a result of nature or nurture, genes or environment. There’s a constant give and take between each: the physical and the mental. As eminent American neuroscientist Gilbert Gottlieb puts it, not only do genes and environment cooperate as we develop, but genes actually require input from the environment to work properly. You have the means to shift your mindset to create the life or attitude that you want and need. A fixed mindset will cloud your judgment. You’ll avoid challenges, you’ll give up when things aren’t going right and you’ll think that you’re not good enough. It’s the belief that you should be terrific instantly and that you can’t improve or get better by effort. But, change is possible. It isn’t easy – but it’s not hugely hard either. The first step is to start and be aware of how your mindset is holding you back.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Brave Pirate Captain and the Sea Monsters Here's a brief summary of the story: The exciting story of Captain Oliver and his loyal crew on the beautiful ship Sapphire Serpent takes us to a world where bravery and adaptability are highly valued. Pirates in the past, Captain Oliver and his gang went through a big change that changed how they felt about the water and how the story of piracy is told. At first, their trip is exciting because they don't know what to expect and they might find buried riches. They are brave pirates who sail the open sea without fear because they want to find treasure and new adventures. But the most important part of their trip is when they find a secret island where dangerous sea animals live. Even though his friends are afraid and warn him not to, Captain Oliver takes his crew with full confidence to the Island of the Sea Monsters. They go into the unknown, where strange noises and a foggy beach make them scared. But they keep going because they believe in his guidance. With swords and guns drawn, they move toward the green but spooky island. The focus of their research is an old, overgrown temple that is guarded by stone statues that look like aquatic life. Because Captain Oliver is determined to figure out the island's secrets, they try to solve more of its puzzles. Inside the temple, they find an amazing treasure room full of gold coins, rare gems, and other beautiful things. Their success is short-lived, though, because giant sea monsters that look like snakes come out of the statues and attack them. Over the course of several hours, the crew's patience is tried, but Captain Oliver's unwavering spirit keeps them going. As the fight goes on, Captain Oliver comes up with a daring plan. He tells his crew to lead the sea monsters back into the water. He jumps onto one of the creatures and puts a huge knife through its shining eye, which makes the other one run away. When the crew finds out that Captain Oliver and the sea monsters have run away to the ocean's depths, it takes away from their moment of victory. When they get back to the Sapphire Serpent, they are sad and have changed a lot. They understand that their captain and the money are gone, but that their newfound respect for the secrets of the water is a much better prize. The sea splitting to show Captain Oliver's return is a sign that their story will end in a miraculous way. His knowledge and the change in the team lead to a new plan to protect the ocean and its animals. They go from being thieves to being brave protectors and defenders of the world under the sea. They go all over the world to save marine animals, protect coral reefs, and promote marine protection. They have become well-known for their brave defense of the water, which has inspired people and groups all over the world to do the same. Since Captain Oliver and his crew changed the way people think about pirates for good, the world has never been the same. Plundering and being greedy are replaced by brave duty and working together, which reminds people of how important it is to protect and care for the environment. So, their story lives on as a story of daring, bravery, and bold guardianship. It is a lesson that we all have the power to change and the duty to protect the treasures that lie beneath the water. This is how the story starts: A brave pirate captain named Captain Oliver used to live where the sea and the sky meet. Captain Oliver was known all over the world for his constant love of excitement and lack of fear. As he crossed the vast ocean with his loyal crew on the beautiful ship "Sapphire Serpent," his heart was full of the excitement of the unknown, and their eyes sparkled with the promise of secret wealth. The pirate Captain Oliver was not like the others. He went to the sea not only because he wanted to steal and get rich, but also because he was very interested in the world and wanted to learn more about it. His team worked hard because he was interested in how big the ocean was and how many things could happen there. They were more than just sea pirates. They were also explorers, dreamers, and people who thought the world beyond the sky was magical. The tall "Sapphire Serpent" was a sight to see, with its dark blue sails and black hull. It is said that it was made by skilled shipwrights who put their hearts and souls into every plank and nail. Its figurehead was a beautifully carved sapphire snake that seemed to come to life at night and watch over the crew as they went on dangerous journeys. This ship was more than just a way for them to get around. It was also their home and a place of safety in the middle of the vast seas. The crew of Captain Oliver was as different as the sea. People from all walks of life, from crusty old sailors to wide-eyed kids, were attracted to their brave leader's charisma. Everyone has a unique story to tell, made up of hopes, regrets, and dreams from their past. They became close because they all liked to try new things and cared about each other. Their travels took them to some of the world's most remote places, where not many people had gone before. They saw old secrets and fought through fierce storms that put their strength to the test. Captain Oliver was not only good at leading his team, but he was also a good teacher. He taught them how to navigate and the value of trust and friendship. He thinks that the real treasures are not gold or jewelry, but the bonds that people make with each other on their trip. One bad day, as the "Sapphire Serpent" sailed through blue seas, they found an old map that had been lost for a long time. The map was supposed to lead to the "Isle of Eternal Dreams," a place that sailors whispered about. It was said to hold the keys to wealth, knowledge, and living forever. Captain Oliver and his team decided to follow the mysterious symbols on the map. Their hearts were racing, and they were excited. It took them by islands no one had ever seen before, through dangerous rivers, and right into the middle of the angry sea. They ran into problems that put their faith to the test in a way that had never happened before. Despite everything, they kept going because they trusted each other and had a strong will. After months of hard journey, they finally reached the mythical Isle of Eternal Dreams. The island was a green paradise with emerald woods, waterfalls, and strange animals they had never seen before. Following the directions on the map, they went deep into the island's center and found a secret room with old books, sparkling gems, and a sparkling fountain. Captain Oliver was humbled by how big of a find they had made. He understood that the real treasure was not the money in front of him, but the knowledge they had gained, the experiences they had shared, and the strong bond that held his crew together. He knew that the most valuable things in life were the desire to learn and to try new things. As they sailed away from the island, their sails were full, and their spirits were high. They knew that there were many more places to discover and that their journey was not over. Captain Oliver and his team kept exploring the vast ocean, never giving up and always looking for new things to see. They understood that where the sea and the sky met, the most important things were the ones you carried in your heart, not the ones you could hold in your hands. They kept sailing, always looking to the horizon for their next big experience. There are stories and legends about Captain Oliver and his loyal crew that are told all over the seven seas. People from far away told stories about the brave pirate captain who went out to find both worldly and spiritual riches. The "Sapphire Serpent" came to stand for bravery, optimism, and the understanding that life's greatest treasures are not always things. Along the way, they met sailors, traders, and pirates from all over the world. Captain Oliver was true to his nature and tried to avoid bloodshed whenever he could. He thought that people could get along better on the high seas if they understood each other and worked together. Because he was charming and his team was seen as honest explorers, they often made friends in strange places. Over time, the crew of the "Sapphire Serpent" became known for their acts of kindness and bravery. They would help poor coastal towns, save sailors who had been lost, and share their wealth with those who had less. Because Captain Oliver was a caring and understanding leader, every member of his team learned how to be caring and understanding. As word spread about how popular they were, kings and queens asked Captain Oliver to share his knowledge and experience at their courts. He became a trusted advisor to kings and a supporter of keeping peace around the world. His impact went far beyond the coast, and he used it to bring people together and help them understand each other.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a quaint coastal village, nestled between lush emerald hills that rolled gently towards the horizon and a shimmering blue sea that sparkled like a million scattered jewels, lived a spirited boy named Leo. With hair tousled and wild from the winds that swept through the village and skin kissed by the sun and salt from countless days spent at the water's edge, Leo embodied the very essence of his vibrant surroundings. Every morning, as the sun awoke from its slumber, casting warm, golden rays that danced over the waves, Leo would bound out of his small, weathered cottage. His heart raced with excitement as he approached the shoreline, a place of wonder and discovery. Here, the rhythmic lapping of the waves would greet him like an old friend, whispering secrets and tales of undiscovered worlds that lay beneath the surface. He often imagined what stories the sea might tell if only it could speak—ancient shipwrecks that held treasures of the past, mystical creatures swimming in the depths, and coral kingdoms waiting to be explored. With every splash of the waves against his feet, Leo felt a profound connection to the ocean, as if it were calling to him, beckoning him to embark on adventures that few dared to dream of. Sun-drenched afternoons were spent collecting seashells, racing against the tide, and watching the clouds drift lazily by, each one sparking his imagination. His youthful curiosity propelled him to ask questions about the sea, to learn about its tides, its creatures, and its ever-changing moods. Little did he know, however, that this insatiable curiosity and longing for exploration would lead him to an extraordinary destiny—one where he would be known as the Boy Who Caught the Oceans. Leo's passion for the sea would unfold into an enchanting journey, filled with mystical encounters, beautiful friendships, and challenges that would test the very limits of his bravery and resourcefulness. As he stood on the shore, arms outstretched to the horizon, he would soon discover that the ocean held not only the mysteries of the universe but also the key to his own heart. The adventures that lay ahead would change not only his life but the lives of those around him, as he learned to harness the magic of the waters that had always beckoned him home.

Download or read book The Underwater Kingdom A Tale of Mythical Creatures written by AQEEL AHMED and published by AQEEL AHMED. This book was released on 2023-10-23 with total page 33 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An underwater country full of mythical creatures lived in the middle of the ocean, deep inside the darkest parts. There were mermaids, sea turtles, octopuses, and a beautiful sea dragon named Drako living in this country, which was unlike any other. Each of these animals has its own special skills, and the lessons of working together, being kind, and celebrating differences have shaped their lives. People know mermaids for their beautiful voices and love of music. They lived in the middle of the country below the sea. Marin was one of them, and her voice could calm the roughest seas. Marina's voice once led a lost fish named Finn back to safety after a seahorse named Sammy asked her to. Sammy went up to Marina and asked her to help him find his brave friend Finn, who had gone into a cave deep in the water that wasn't supposed to be there and hadn't come back. Because she was scared, Marina agreed to use her special voice to help Finn get back home safely. Marina's words cut a bright path that led Finn back to the coral reef he knew and put him in touch with Sammy again. Finn and Sammy's bond grew stronger, and they never went far from home without being with each other. One of the old and wise sea turtles that lived in the deeper parts of the water was Terrance. He wore a shell with pretty designs that showed how the water had changed over time. Oliver was a young octopus who wanted to know what his fate was. Terrance told him to follow his dreams and see the wonders of the deep ocean. Through his art, Oliver brought joy to the underwater kingdom by painting bright pictures on the ocean floor. He did this while keeping Terrance's knowledge close to his heart. Over time, the creatures that lived under the sea continued to live together and share their knowledge and skills, turning the ocean into a thriving and diverse society. But then there was a big storm on the water that looked like it would destroy everything in its way. A brave sea dragon named Drako showed up in the middle of this disaster. Drako sang a song of peace and calm because he knew how to calm storms and control currents. The storm finally calmed down, and the underwater kingdom was saved. The animals in the underwater kingdom got together to sing a special song to honor Drako's bravery and kindness. That song that echoed over the water made them think of how strong friendship can be and how magical the sea was. So, the mythical animals lived happily underwater, appreciating their individual skills and the lessons they had learned from each other over the course of their lives. In their world of magic and wonder, every day was a journey, and they loved every living thing. They lived happily ever after in the beautiful world of mythical animals, which shows how beautiful the ocean still is. The Story's Start: Under the seas, in the middle of the ocean's depths that no one could reach, there was a magical and amazing world. Mythical animals of all kinds and sizes lived in this underwater area that was unlike any other. There were amazing things these people could do, and their stories were woven into the fabric of the aquatic world. Mermaids were some of the most beautiful creatures in this watery world. The beautiful music was being played by these graceful beings, whose upper bodies looked like ethereal humans and their bottom bodies looked like smooth, iridescent fish. They got together on bright coral reefs to sing beautiful songs, with voices that blended together like the sweetest harmony. Each mermaid had a unique voice, and their melodies could make people feel strong feelings, calm rough seas, and even heal sea creatures that were hurt. There was one mermaid that stood out from the rest. Marin was her name, and her voice was magical in a way that no one else could match. The ocean seemed to hold its breath when Marina sang because of her beautiful voice. People thought that her melodies could heal hurt hearts and her singing could calm even the roughest storms. She was a marine guardian, and the people who lived in the underwater kingdom found comfort and hope in her songs. Another unique species did well in the ocean's depths: sea turtles, which are very old and smart. These huge beings were known for being smart and able to see into the past and future. Terrance was a very old sea turtle, and his shell had beautiful patterns on it that showed how the water had changed over time. Everyone who went to him for help respected him. Oliver, a little octopus who was very interested, came up to Terrance one day, full of questions. Oliver asked with his eight quick arms, "Terrance, can you tell me what the future holds for me?"
