In this revolutionary new book, success and motivation expert Tom Ziglar shares the good news that you can change and that, in fact, you can win at life.

The result is a more productive, more fulfilling, and more meaningful life. You can take control of your destiny and leave the lasting legacy you've dreamed about and deserve. You simply need to choose to do so.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the aftermath of the U.S. Supreme Court decision in Roe v. Wade, the abortion issue became the most important blood test for political candidates. Those who didn't follow the party line on this issue had little or no chance to win their party's endorsement. Anyone seeking middle ground was caught in the crossfire. Time to Choose is a novel of romance in the middle of the crossfire. A story about the many choices we make personal and professional, why and how we make them, and the consequences of those choices. Former state senator Michael Burke returns to the State Capitol after a ten year absence, to attend the funeral of a former colleague and close friend. The funeral evokes memories of bittersweet years in politics. Exhilarating victories, and crushing losses. He's reminded that he left the turbulent political arena for a more stable and balanced life, one with time and energy for his children. But after meeting an intriguing new candidate for the Senate, Dr. Patricia Culligan, he breaks a vow: never to go back to politics. Michael Burke's return to the battleground forces him to confront his past, and understand how his choices caused harm to himself and others. And how accepting this can be a prelude to moving on with his life.

Download or read book Mastering the Hype Cycle written by Jackie Fenn and published by Harvard Business Press. This book was released on 2008-10-14 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It happens over and over again. Some innovation (a new product, a management trend) comes along that captures the public's imagination. Everybody joins the parade with great fanfare and high expectations. This "next big thing" promises to transform the companies that adopt it -- and inflict great peril on those that don't. Then, when the innovation fails to deliver as promised immediately, everyone starts bailing out. Investments are wasted; stock prices plunge; disillusionment sets in. It doesn't have to be this way. In Mastering the Hype Cycle, Jackie Fenn and Mark Raskino explain what drives this pattern and how your company can avoid its potential dangers. By understanding the hype cycle, you can ride it more skillfully -- timing your investment decisions so that the innovations you adopt stand the best chance of succeeding in the long-term. Drawing on company examples and Gartner's proven STREET (Scope, Track, Rank, Evaluate, Evangelize, Transfer) framework, the authors show how to orchestrate the key steps in the innovation-adoption process -- from choosing which innovations to take on and when in their life cycle you should adopt, to paving the way for a successful introduction. The hype cycle isn't going away. But this book arms you with the strategies you need to ride the crest of a new idea to success -- and steer clear of the trough of disillusionment.

Download or read book It s Time to Choose Your Ego Or You written by Trey Free and published by . This book was released on 2020-08-28 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Something is living inside each of us, but it is not our true selves. It is a version of us we created in our youth to protect our vulnerable inner beings from the threats of the outside world. It is a version of us we are feeding and strengthening every single day... but we don't realize we are doing it. It spends all its time and energy creating a world of deception around us. A world so authentic and addicting that we have forgotten how to find our way back home. A world where we move mountains to keep this being alive while we willingly neglect our true inner selves, leaving them to starve. Our egos are arguably the most destructive forces on the planet. If we look at many of the major issues that are plaguing us in our modern context, you can most certainly trace their roots back to peoples' egos and our blind obedience to this internal master driving our behavior. Our egos limit us in so many ways. They distract us from enjoying the present moment by ensuring we are always ruminating on the past or anxiously fearing the future. They limit our performance by injecting fear into our thoughts at the moments we need a clear head. They decimate our relationships by seeking self-aggrandizement instead of authentic connections. Therefore, we must ask ourselves the following questions: 1. Am I awake to the deceptions of my self-generated ego?2. Do I recognize the reality I am experiencing is a fictional world created to ensure my ego survives and thrives? I have been on a 11-year journey to confront my ego and remove its stranglehold over my life. This book reveals major pieces of that journey in a unique way. We will start by attaching a 365-pound bundle to me and jumping it out of a plane at 13,000 feet; we will discover hidden signposts that nudged me towards the path that leads back home; we will uncover the brutal 2200-mile Appalachian Trail arena that pitted me against my ego for hours, days, weeks, and months on end, showcasing just how intertwined and deceptive my ego was inside my life; and much, much, more. I created this book to help shake more humans awake and rob more egos of the power they hold over the world we are living in. This book is for those who realize something is hiding underneath the surface of their everyday experience. It is a book for those desiring to find their path back home.

Book excerpt: From the New York Times bestselling authors of Sprint comes “a unique and engaging read about a proven habit framework [that] readers can apply to each day” (Insider, Best Books to Form New Habits). “If you want to achieve more (without going nuts), read this book.”—Charles Duhigg, author of The Power of Habit Nobody ever looked at an empty calendar and said, "The best way to spend this time is by cramming it full of meetings!" or got to work in the morning and thought, Today I'll spend hours on Facebook! Yet that's exactly what we do. Why? In a world where information refreshes endlessly and the workday feels like a race to react to other people's priorities faster, frazzled and distracted has become our default position. But what if the exhaustion of constant busyness wasn't mandatory? What if you could step off the hamster wheel and start taking control of your time and attention? That's what this book is about. As creators of Google Ventures' renowned "design sprint," Jake and John have helped hundreds of teams solve important problems by changing how they work.

A must-read for anyone who has ever thought, If only there were more hours in the day..., Make Time will help you stop passively reacting to the demands of the modern world and start intentionally making time for the things that matter.

Download or read book Being the Change written by Peter Kalmus and published by New Society Publishers. This book was released on 2017-08-01 with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “A plethora of insights about nature and ourselves, revealed by one man’s journey as he comes to terms with human exploitation of our planet.” —Dr. James Hansen, climate scientist and former director of NASA’s Goddard Institute for Space Studies Life on one-tenth the fossil fuels turns out to be awesome. We all want to be happy. Yet as we consume ever more in a frantic bid for happiness, global warming worsens. Alarmed by drastic changes now occurring in the Earth’s climate systems, Peter Kalmus, a climate scientist and suburban father of two, embarked on a journey to change his life and the world. He began by bicycling, growing food, meditating, and making other simple, fulfilling changes. Ultimately, he slashed his climate impact to under a tenth of the US average and became happier in the process. Being the Change explores the connections between our individual daily actions and our collective predicament. It merges science, spirituality, and practical action to develop a satisfying and appropriate response to global warming. Part one exposes our interconnected predicament: overpopulation, global warming, industrial agriculture, growth-addicted economics, a sold-out political system, and a mindset of separation from nature. It also includes a readable but authoritative overview of climate science. Part two offers a response at once obvious and unprecedented: mindfully opting out of this broken system and aligning our daily lives with the biosphere. The core message is deeply optimistic: living without fossil fuels is not only possible, it can be better. “In this timely and provocative book, Peter Kalmus points out that changing the world has to start with changing our own lives. It’s a crucial message that needs to be heard.” —John Michael Greer, author of After Progress and The Retro Future
