This book was released on 2014-12-18 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The everyday expression "Get in the game!" is frequently used as an invitation to join an ongoing activity. Used in this book, it is an invitation to be part of a successful business group or activity. Success in life in general, or in business in particular, is measured by different people in different ways, but it is generally interpreted as the overcoming of difficulties to accomplish a goal. Overcoming difficulty is a good reason for us to celebrate, and the CelebrityExperts(r) in this book can help you succeed. What they have in common is the proven ability to move over, around or through a problem in a desired and productive direction in a quest to accomplish their goals. Do you remember a major problem that you faced and battled with mentally, spiritually or financially? Overcoming such difficulties may be defined here as a measure of success. Daily, some combination of analysis, perseverance, innovation and action resolve your difficult issues. However, when we are stumped and meet roadblocks that appear insurmountable, it may be time to call in 'the heavy artillery.' That would be a mentor! Mentors, by definition, are those who can guide you through situations where they have gone before. They will also help you avoid errors they made on their journey. A mentor serves to make your journey much faster than you could make it on your own. Mentors, like the CelebrityExperts(r) in this book, will save you time, effort and resources in your quest for success. These CelebrityExperts(r) will make it easier for you to... 'Get In The Game!' You have to learn the rules of the game. And then you have to play better than anyone else. Albert Ei

Download or read book The Status Game written by Will Storr and published by William Collins. This book was released on 2022-07-07 with total page 416 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'Will Storr is one of our best journalists of ideas ... The Status Game might be his best yet' James Marriott, Books of the Year, The Times What drives our political and moral beliefs? What makes us like some things and dislike others? What shapes how we behave, and misbehave, in groups? What makes you, you? For centuries, philosophers and scholars have described human behaviour in terms of sex, power and money. In The Status Game, bestselling author Will Storr radically turns this thinking on its head by arguing that it is our irrepressible craving for status that ultimately defines who we are. From the era of the hunter-gatherer to today, when we exist as workers in the globalised economy and citizens of online worlds, the need for status has always been wired into us. A wealth of research shows that how much of it we possess dramatically affects not only our happiness and wellbeing but also our physical health - and without sufficient status, we become more ill, and live shorter lives. It's an unconscious obsession that drives the best and worst of us: our innovation, arts and civilisation as well as our murders, wars and genocides. But why is status such an all-consuming prize? What happens if it's taken away from us? And how can our unquenchable thirst for it explain cults, moral panics, conspiracy theories, the rise of social media and the 'culture wars' of today? On a breathtaking journey through time and culture, The Status Game offers a sweeping rethink of human psychology that will change how you see others - and how you see yourself.

  • ISBN : 022681114X
  • Pages : 137 pages

Download or read book Get in the Game written by Tim Chartier and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2022-09-07 with total page 137 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "An accessible, illustrated introduction to statistics and sports analytics for fanatics and newcomers alike. On February 27, 2013, NBA shooter Steph Curry wowed crowds when he sunk eleven out of thirteen three-pointers-only seven other players, including the likes of Michael Jordan and Kobe Bryant, had scored more in the history of games at Madison Square Garden. Four years later, the University of Connecticut women's basketball team won their 100th straight game, defeating South Carolina 66-55. And in 2010, one sports forecaster-an octopus named Paul-correctly predicted the outcome of all of Germany's matches in the World Cup. These are surprising events. Are they truly improbable? Mathematician and sports analytics expert Tim Chartier shows readers how to answer that question-condensing complex data modeling down to coin tosses and dice throws to give readers an introduction to statistics and a new way to enjoy sporting events. Chartier leads readers through modeling experiments with accessible tools and few formulas to develop an intuitive sense of the improbable. For example, to see how likely you are to beat Curry's three-pointer feat, take into account Curry's 45.3 percent three-point shooting average in 2012-2013. Take a coin and assume heads is making the shot (slightly better than Curry at a 50 percent chance). Can you imagine getting heads eleven out of thirteen times? We soon get a sense of the improbability of Curry's feat. The book includes exercises for sports experimentation and engaging illustrations in comic book-style by illustrator Ansley Earle. The result allows all readers to predict and examine the likelihood of sports events for those who have never encountered formal statistics, who don't have the programming skills to run simulations, and may have never heard of sports analytics, but enjoy watching sports"--
