Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The human race has taken a wrong turn sometime in the past million years. But from within the dark realty that face most there is a deeply entrenched hope, that we can turn things around. The world is now drowning in constant conflict, as individuals, societies, and governments each fight to keep a hold on what they believe is theirs. World leaders seem intent on maintaining their borders as humanity faces the prospect of extinction. The worlds financial future is perilous at best. Society stands at the precipice looking into the abyss of its own demise. The world population has peaked and appears to be decreasing at an alarming rate. Just after the turn of the twenty-first century, an ancient parchment comes to light that throws doubt over the origins of the Christian church. One man has been tasked to awaken the world from its ego-induced slumber. Brayden, a young man separated from contemporary society may hold the answers. In the countless hours he has to himself, he has dedicated his life to learning the real reasons humanity had created such a hopeless future as a race. With the help of his spirit guide, he hopes to find the way to free humanity from its self-imposed fate. Will we listen in time to avert the inevitable? What will it take for us to realize the mistakes of our ways? Can we ever live in peace?
Download or read book This Time I Am Going to Get It Right written by Louise Childs and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2011-03-21 with total page 65 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: No one is entitled to success; you have to work hard at it. Reflecting back on my life, I must say that providing your children with a definitive plan and giving them the tools to succeed in life by doing something positively constructive in life is relevant. My thoughts for writing this book have been culminating over the years and even though I never thought that I would write a book, I always had something to say. I figured writing a book would be the perfect platform to talk about what I have experienced about being disconnected and not knowing really what I wanted to do, so I did a little bit of everything. For some, they might think that doing a whole lot of things is interesting and audacious and other hand, some may view it pessimistically as being discombobulated. However, from my very own personal perspective, I view it as growth. Are you familiar with the story about the caterpillar that turned into a butterfly and was gradually leaving its cocoon? If you interfere with the process of trying to free the butterfly from its cocoon, the interference becomes injurious to the butterfly and it will never fly. The lessons and the experiences of life can be bittersweet, but they make us who we are and eventually we become that butterfly who is ready to spread its beautiful wings and fly.

Download or read book The First 20 Hours written by Josh Kaufman and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2013-06-13 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Forget the 10,000 hour rule— what if it’s possible to learn the basics of any new skill in 20 hours or less? Take a moment to consider how many things you want to learn to do. What’s on your list? What’s holding you back from getting started? Are you worried about the time and effort it takes to acquire new skills—time you don’t have and effort you can’t spare? Research suggests it takes 10,000 hours to develop a new skill. In this nonstop world when will you ever find that much time and energy? To make matters worse, the early hours of practicing something new are always the most frustrating. That’s why it’s difficult to learn how to speak a new language, play an instrument, hit a golf ball, or shoot great photos. It’s so much easier to watch TV or surf the web . . . In The First 20 Hours, Josh Kaufman offers a systematic approach to rapid skill acquisition— how to learn any new skill as quickly as possible. His method shows you how to deconstruct complex skills, maximize productive practice, and remove common learning barriers. By completing just 20 hours of focused, deliberate practice you’ll go from knowing absolutely nothing to performing noticeably well. Kaufman personally field-tested the methods in this book. You’ll have a front row seat as he develops a personal yoga practice, writes his own web-based computer programs, teaches himself to touch type on a nonstandard keyboard, explores the oldest and most complex board game in history, picks up the ukulele, and learns how to windsurf. Here are a few of the simple techniques he teaches: Define your target performance level: Figure out what your desired level of skill looks like, what you’re trying to achieve, and what you’ll be able to do when you’re done. The more specific, the better. Deconstruct the skill: Most of the things we think of as skills are actually bundles of smaller subskills. If you break down the subcomponents, it’s easier to figure out which ones are most important and practice those first. Eliminate barriers to practice: Removing common distractions and unnecessary effort makes it much easier to sit down and focus on deliberate practice. Create fast feedback loops: Getting accurate, real-time information about how well you’re performing during practice makes it much easier to improve. Whether you want to paint a portrait, launch a start-up, fly an airplane, or juggle flaming chainsaws, The First 20 Hours will help you pick up the basics of any skill in record time . . . and have more fun along the way.

Download or read book Why Things Are Going to Get Worse And Why We Should Be Glad written by Michael Roscoe and published by New Internationalist. This book was released on 2014-12-15 with total page 293 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The free-market capitalist system is in the process of collapse and we must now adjust to the reality of declining prosperity in the West. We should forget about growth and concentrate instead on the creation of jobs and reducing fossil fuel use—and it isn't impossible to achieve these two apparently conflicting aims. This is the thrust of the author's arguments and through the use of clear consistent charts he builds his case up from first principles. He graphically illustrates every important point and creates a compelling and powerful picture of why it's bad, why it's going to get worse, and why this presents an opportunity to make things better. This is a vision of life in which we will be forced to confront the real issues. Among other things, we must recognize that all wealth comes from the earth, we must concentrate on creating jobs and sharing earnings more fairly, and we should have more regulation especially in relation to banks and corporations and reducing competition between nations. And most of all we must return to the real values of real industry away from the current obsession with making money from money. Mike Roscoe is a journalist with many years' experience in the interpretation of data and the illustration of such information in graphic form, accompanied by clear and concise text. He has worked at the Financial Times, the Economist, the Daily Telegraph, and the Independent.
Download or read book Take You Wherever You Go written by Kenny Leon and published by Grand Central Publishing. This book was released on 2018-06-05 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From Tony Award-winning director and recipient of the prestigious Mr. Abbott Award, Kenny Leon, comes a powerful memoir of the lessons he has learned on his incredible life journey. When Kenny Leon's grandmother told him to "take you wherever you go," she could hardly have anticipated that he would establish himself as one of Broadway's most exciting and acclaimed directors. But through years of hard work, Kenny would migrate from a small wooden house in rural Florida to the Tony Awards' stage, where he would win Best Direction of a Play for his 2014 revival of A Raisin in the Sun. In TAKE YOU WHEREVER YOU GO, Leon reflects on the pillars of wisdom he learned every step of the way from the most important people in his life--from his grandmother's sagacious and encouraging motivations to the steady hand of his mother to the deep artistic and social influence of iconic American playwright August Wilson. TAKE YOU WHEREVER YOU GO is a poignant, ruminative, and inspirational memoir that empowers you to be true to yourself as you navigate your own path.
