Download or read book The 2020 Handbook of High Paying Work Without a College Degree written by Martin K Ettington and published by . This book was released on 2020-07-16 with total page 142 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Colleges and Universities were mainly founded to training people in careers so they could find a good job. But with the exception of certain areas like Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math (STEM), many four year degrees do not teach marketable skills. Many schools have lost the focus on why they were created in the first place. This book is for those people who want to make a good living but also want to avoid huge college debts and don't want to attend a four year schools for additional reasons.These people are not dumb-they may be much smarter than average because they realize the mess that Colleges and Universities have created.The good news is there are many great careers out there which do not need a four year degree to succeed in. "If you want to be a success, get a bachelor's degree."That's the message trumpeted by many people in our culture. It's said, written, and implied so much that we often take it for gospel. We assume, without even really thinking about it, that if you want to be financially, emotionally, and socially successful, a four-year degree is required. At the very least, you need a two-year associate's degree.But there are many things wrong with this concept. First of all, it hints that "success" is tied to income, implying that the more money you make, the happier you will be. Of course, anyone can tell you that money does not lead to happiness; once your basic financial needs are met, there is very little advantage, from a happiness standpoint, to earning a lot of money.

Download or read book The Suppression of Truth in the United States and the World written by Martin K. Ettington and published by Martin K. Ettington. This book was released on with total page 159 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In today’s world we live in a culture of truth suppression. This is true in representative democracies like the United States as well as full totalitarian dictatorships like Communist China. This book covers many areas of major lies like Global Warming, perverted doctrines taught in schools, Politics, News Suppression, Communist China, limitations in Spirituality, deficit spending, and problems with globalism. There are many different types of truth suppression and as much as we would like to think that we live in an advanced culture and world, this effort by different entities to suppress truth affects our lives negatively in many ways. The most direct effect is that we live in fear of the future of our world which is a big lie. This suppression also keeps us from fully realizing our spiritual natures and that we do have the ability to accomplish amazing things when we live with full honesty in our lives. I believe that individuals are closest to a state of happiness when they live their lives in truth. (See my book “A New Paradigm of Truth and Happiness” for more information.) There are actions we can take to correct this situation but they are mass actions which need many persons involved to have a real effect. A list of these actions are given later in this book.
Download or read book Infinity and our Unbounded Universe written by Martin K. Ettington and published by Martin K. Ettington. This book was released on with total page 74 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The concept of Infinity has been around since the ancients and it has many practical applications in mathematics like Calculus. Infinity is also important in Fractals which are a graphical algorithm which is used in many computer graphics applications today and which has infinite depth. It is also applicable to our Universe since the standard concept we are taught about the Big Bang as the beginning of the Universe may be wrong. Modern evidence is showing us contradictions which say that we live in a Universe which is steady state and might even be infinite in size. The Universe doesn’t have a creation date we can be sure of. We don’t really know if it is infinite in size but the Universe is certainly much larger and older than our best scientific instruments can measure. This book is an exploration of Infinity and new understandings of our Universe which have come to light in recent decades.
Download or read book The Spiritual Enlightenment of an Engineer written by Martin K. Ettington and published by Martin K. Ettington. This book was released on with total page 84 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I’ve written quite a few books about spirituality and my experiences and beliefs in our abilities to expand our consciousness through spiritual development practices, meditation, and the paranormal. This book includes my experiences with paranormal abilities acquired from the spiritual development process and different enlightenment experiences. Having been raised in a technical family and gone to engineering school my perspective is pretty unique since I developed both traditional technical knowledge of the world while I was also going through the spiritual development and enlightenment process. There are many engineers and scientists who are also religious but I’ve found that technical people who are as deeply into spiritual enlightenment practices and paranormal experiences are pretty rare. What I’ve found is that this dual background has given me more clarity about the world we live in and better objectivity in many cases regarding strange or unusual phenomena. The theme of this book is to review how I went through this dual track system of learning in my life to become both a traditional engineer and to have fairly adept knowledge of spiritual and paranormal experiences.
Download or read book The Fear of Failure written by Martin K. Ettington and published by Martin K. Ettington. This book was released on with total page 70 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In our modern society there are lots of pressures to succeed. Whatever that means. Most of us absorb the idea that we need to succeed in life and thus they have the corollary fear of failure. One of my favorite movies is “The Razor’s Edge” with Tyrone Powell. It is the story of a young man in the 1920s who has the opportunity to make it big in conventional jobs but he isn’t interested. Instead he follows an alternative path which leads him to India where he seeks enlightenment. His friends who followed the conventional career path experienced terrible lives when most of them were wiped out in the great depression. Even one who made it big financially was mainly interested in earthly status which doesn’t’ make a difference in the long run. My point is that we need to be thoughtful about how we envision the future of our lives so we live life with meaning and don’t have unrealistic expectations. Thinking about life this way is the first way to avoid having a fear of failure. In this book we review the reasons people have fears of failure, persons who changed failure into success, and how to modify our lives to change our fears of failure into a path for success and happiness.
Download or read book The Timeline of Intelligent Life on Earth written by Martin K. Ettington and published by Martin K. Ettington. This book was released on 2022-09-06 with total page 371 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I’m fascinated with Ancient History because there are continuous new discoveries which push back the dawn of civilization by thousands of years. In the last couple of decades, the discoveries at Gobekli Tepe in eastern Turkey pushed back man-made structures to the time period of 9,000-11,000 B.C. Thousands of years before the next know civilizations existed. This book includes my research on ancient sites around the world, underground structures, giants, the destruction of civilization about 10,500 B.C., the real Atlantis, and out of place objects which can be millions of years old. With this collection of a wide variety of information I decided that what is needed is a full timeline of intelligent life on Earth from millions of years ago to the present. There are a lot of gaps in this information but enough records, findings, and discoveries exist to propose an initial timeline of intelligent life on Earth going back hundreds of millions of years. Yes-I’m saying intelligent life has existed on Earth that long, and since humanity and even primates don’t exist in those times at all, aliens must have lived on the Earth at that time. There are three parts to this book: Part One - Millions of Years Ago This includes stories of aliens existing on Earth in our history, and many out of place objects made by intelligent beings, and the fossil record which provides supporting evidence that intelligent life did exist at those times. Part Two - The Unknown Civilizations of Man Here we have evidence of structures built by man but way before any accepted records that civilization or man made constructions existed. Some of these things may go back 100,000 years ago. Part Three – Post Ice Age Civilizations This part includes evidence that the Younger Dryas event was actually comets striking the Earth which caused major disasters and probably the destruction of civilizations about 10,500 B.C. My intention is that this timeline will provide a skeleton of mankind and intelligent life’s early history on Earth which can be filled in overtime to become much more detailed and prove the truth of this point of view to skeptics worldwide.
Download or read book 18 Long Lived Communities around the World written by Martin K. Ettington and published by Martin K. Ettington. This book was released on with total page 141 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is about communities and cities around the world where people live to very old ages. It is divided into two groups. Those communities who have the longest lived peoples in the world. Lots of lifestyle and diet data is included for them. The second group are another set of communities which have high average ages which people live to but are not quite the outliers that the first group is. I’ve also tried to provide some general lifestyle and diet guidelines to give an idea of why these places are different for longevity purposes. The first four communities were also profiled in my book “Diets and Lifestyles of the World's Oldest Peoples & 32 Longevity Recipes” which goes into lot of details about these four locations including traditional recipes. Overall, I think you will get a better idea of what the reasons are why people live a long time in these locations around the world which may give you ideas about adapting your lifestyle and diets to have maximum longevity.
Download or read book A 300 Million Year Old Civilization Existed on Earth written by Martin K. Ettington and published by Martin K. Ettington. This book was released on with total page 105 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The thesis of this book is that there was a civilization of intelligent beings existing on Earth over 300 million years ago. I previously collected information to write two books on out of place artifacts (OOPAs) and a book on Giants which evidence shows lived on this Earth millions of years ago. While writing my book titled “The History of Intelligent Life On Earth from Millions of Years Ago Till Present” and generating a timeline on ancient OOPAs found around the Earth, I found an interesting pattern. It turns out that a large number of these objects were from around 300 million years ago mostly in coal mines and seams. All of these objects from the same time period provide good circumstantial evidence that a worldwide civilization existed at that time. Given the millions of years which have elapsed since then we are lucky to find even the few OOPAs we have records of which were preserved in coal and rock. In this book I put together the evidence and do my best to answer questions like: What did the world look like then? What were the attributes and culture of this society? What types of beings were part of this civilization? And other relevant questions. It may be hard to believe that intelligent life existed back then but we need to be objective to follow where the evidence takes us.

Download or read book Stranger Than Science Stories and Facts written by Martin K. Ettington and published by Martin K. Ettington. This book was released on with total page 215 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I first read the book “Stranger Than Science” By Frank Edwards when I was about 10 years old and it was an important turning point in my life. The book has many stories of strange events and it really built my curiosity about the world. Later I went to Engineering School and also had many paranormal experiences from learning meditation and other practices. I have now researched and written over 100 books on strange and mysterious phenomena. My fascination with strange things has become a major passion in my life. This book is kind of an updated version of that famous Frank Edwards book based on my experiences and research of many phenomena. I’m sure you will find the stories in this book fascinating since they are all samples of much of what I experienced, researched, and have written about. It contains over 32 chapters of my favorite stories on various topics to provide a question mark for your beliefs and assumptions about the world and universe we live in. When you finish this volume maybe you will see my point of view which is that as much as we think we know about this world and the universe, there are still many mysteries and strange things out there.
Download or read book Radionics and Life Force Technologies written by Martin K. Ettington and published by Martin K. Ettington. This book was released on with total page 103 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Radionics is the term for machines which manipulate life forces. This is often for healing or increasing psychic perceptions. The Author is an engineer and has many decades of experience with the paranormal and well as time learning and experimenting with radionics devices from the 1970s. While radionics devices are often considered pseudoscience, those opinions don’t take into account the sensitivities of individuals who have incredible paranormal and healing abilities. In my first year of engineering school at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute in Troy, New York I met a man who became my mentor in the Paranormal and other things too. This was in 1973. I learned to meditate and how to open my crown chakra to take in vital forces which allowed me to do many things including healing others. In addition I also met another middle aged guy at a Psychic Fair in Saratoga Springs, New York. He was a researcher in the arcane field of Kirlian Photography. In this book the history of radionics is discussed, some of the major influencers on that history, how these devices are used for healing, and even some plans for building radionics devices. My hope is that this book will give you a good grounding in radionics to learn to use it productively for your own efforts.

Download or read book The Oxford Handbook of Education and Globalization written by Jacqueline Behrend and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2023 with total page 1073 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The categories commonly mobilized to think about education have long been associated with the notion of the nation state, and functioned as obstacles, rather than resources, for our understanding of how globalization plays out in this particular field. In the last two decades, both social theory and comparative politics have attempted to overcome these limitations in their own way. Social theory increasingly acknowledged education as a global phenomenon. Theories have been developed to describe a global society evolving across borders. They show how, through processes that remain debated (cultural isomorphism, capitalism, functional differentiation), a number of structural and semantic evolutions have spread across education systems. Part I of this Handbook is dedicated to presenting, discussing, and comparing three such theories of globalization and their implications for our understanding of education and education policy. Comparative politics has for its part concerned itself with developing a more complex, less unified and 'transformationalist' view of the State by acknowledging the fragmentation and distribution of its functions among distinct domains and levels. Part II gravitates around this global constellation, with chapters focusing on global reforms, norms and ideas put forward by supranational organizations, on international accountability processes and on the ways in which nation states or local actors adopt, implement or resist global ideas and reforms. The two Parts reflect these disciplinary approaches to the relation between globalization and education. Together, these two approaches seek to provide a comprehensive overview of how globalization and education interact to result in distinct and varying outcomes across world regions"--
