Book excerpt: The Motivation Manifesto is a poetic and powerful call to reclaim your life and find your own personal freedom from Brendon Burchard – the world’s #1 high performance coach and #1 New York Times bestselling author of High Performance Habits. “It’s a triumphant work that transcends the title, lifting the reader from mere motivation into a soaringly purposeful and meaningful life. I love this book." —Paulo Coelho The Motivation Manifesto is a call to claim our personal power. World-renowned high performance trainer Brendon Burchard reveals that the main motive of humankind is the pursuit of greater Personal Freedom. We desire the grand liberties of choice—time freedom, emotional freedom, social freedom, financial freedom, spiritual freedom. Only two enemies stand in our way: an external enemy, defined as the social oppression of who we are by the mediocre masses, and an internal enemy, a sort of self-oppression caused by our own doubt and fear. The march to Personal Freedom, Brendon says, can be won only by declaring our intent and independence, stepping into our personal power, and battling through self-doubt and the distractions of the day until full victory is won. Recalling the revolutionist voices of the past that chose freedom over tyranny, Brendon motivates us to free ourselves from fear and take back our lives once and for all. In this life-changing personal growth book, Brendon presents his nine declarations for personal power and motivation, drawing on insights from his own personal journey and from the lives of some of history's greatest leaders and thinkers. Each chapter focuses on one of the nine declarations, offering practical strategies and exercises to help you apply these principles to your life. Whether you're seeking to overcome self-doubt, boost your confidence, or achieve your goals, The Motivation Manifesto is an invaluable guide to unlocking your full potential. With its inspiring message and actionable advice, this bestselling book is a must-read for anyone who wants to unleash their inner greatness with the power of determination, resilience, and an empowering mindset.

Download or read book The Making of High Performance Athletes written by Debra Shogan and published by University of Toronto Press. This book was released on 1999-12-15 with total page 156 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Highly skilled athletes are produced by technologies of training which seek to create the athlete as a singular identity. Yet the disciplinary model of modern sport is consistently disrupted by the diversity and hybridity of the participants. Using Foucault's work on disciplinary power as a theoretical framework, Debra Shogan, an academic in sports ethics and a coach of high performance athletes, examines the ways in which athletes are produced through technologies of training and the ethical issues which emerge when demands to improve performance envelopes athletes, coaches, administrators and sports scientists in decisions about how far to push the limits of performance. Making the case for a new, postmodern sports ethic, Shogan shows how the juxtaposition of hybrid athletes with the homogenizing technologies of sport discipline opens up spaces for questioning, refusing, and perhaps creating new ways of participating in sport.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Getting started with Django is easy. There are tutorials and books that literally walk you through the process of getting your first site up and running. Taking that code from your laptop to the real world is like opening pandora's box. Should I use Apache, Gunicorn, uWSGI or something else? Where should I use caching to make things faster? How do I know if my database has the right indexes or if it needs more resources? Do I need a NoSQL database like MongoDB? The site runs great on my laptop. Why is it so slow in production? How many servers does my site need? How big should they be? What is the 20% effort that will solve 80% of my performance problems? If you've asked yourself any of these questions, you're like most Django developers. Heck, we were asking some of the same questions when we started working with Django 7 years ago at Lincoln Loop. Since then we've built, deployed, and maintained a lot of Django sites. Everything from realtime applications to large-scale CMSes with tons of traffic. Quite frankly, we made a lot of mistakes, but we learned a lot too. High Performance Django is the book we wish we had when we got started. It will give you a repeatable blueprint for building and deploying fast, scalable Django sites.

Download or read book Achieving High Performance Friendship written by John Vawter and published by . This book was released on 2011-01-01 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "When we step on the gas of our car while trying to pass and 18-wheeler on a two-lane hightay, we don't want and anemic, sluggish response--we want high performance. Similarly, none of us want an anemic, sluggish response from a friend when we are in need of physical, emotional, psychological or spiritual support. Men commonly experience life without deep, meaningful friendships. The aim of this book is to help men achieve high performance friendship. What is high performance friendship? Perhaps the best answer is to provide the litmus tests we apply to our own friendship. To us, a friendship is high performance if both friends: take the opportunity to provide selfless acts on behalf of the other; feel comfortable sharing inner-most thoughts, yet respect the other's private thoughts; trust the other with that which he holds dear; support each other when one falls short or fails, and readily grant forgiveness; appreciate and accept heartfelt constructive criticism; truly celebrate each other's success without jealousy or envy; sustain the relationship in spite of distance or time; refrain from making or tolerating any disparaging remarks about the other, especially behind his back. How can we achieve high performance friendship? Why not consider how Christ treated His male friends during His human experience? Could there be a better possible example? This book provides stories and principles of high performance friendship by drawing on the exemplary manner in which Christ treated His friends during His time on earth" -- BACK COVER.

This original and engaging study explores the development of male bodybuilding culture from the nineteenth century to the present day, tracing its transformations and offering a new perspective on its current extreme direction. Drawing on archival research, interviews, participant observation, and discourse analysis, this book presents a critical mapping of bodybuilding’s trajectory.
