Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'A great read and a fascinating insight into performance.' Sir Clive Woodward We all want to discover our hidden talents and make an impact with them. But how? Rasmus Ankersen, an ex-footballer and performance specialist, quit his job and for six intense months lived with the world's best athletes in an attempt to answer this question. Why have the best middle distance runners grown up in the same Ethiopian village? Why are the leading female golfers from South Korea? How did one athletic club in Kingston, Jamaica, succeed in producing so many world-class sprinters? Ankersen presents his surprising conclusions in seven lessons on how anyone - or any business, organisation or team - can defy the many misconceptions of high performance and learn to build their own gold mine of real talent.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The modern day youth sports environment has taken the enjoyment out of athletics for our children.

John O’Sullivan shares the secrets of the coaches and parents who have not only raised elite athletes, but have done so by creating an environment that promotes positive core values and teaches life lessons instead of focusing on wins and losses, scholarships, and professional aspirations.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: All objective sciences deal with the objectifiable entities and ignore in the process the very subject, who is doing the analysis. This book deals with the limitations of the objective sciences and also discusses how to prepare the mind so that it can see the truth. Transcending Science, therefore, involves how to transcend the subject-object duality, using the Yoga-Sastra discussed in the Gita and the Upanishads, and how to abide in the knowledge by overcoming all the mental obstacles that arise in the process. This forms the very purpose of life itself.

Download or read book Prince of Peace written by Tom Kingery and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2021-07-12 with total page 194 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The birth of Christ is not only about the coming of the Messiah to the world—it is the Incarnation. By striving to understand Christ, we can understand what it is to be a follower of Jesus. Exploring the idea of the Incarnation also helps us get a grip on why God came in human form and what our purpose is as we respond with faith in Him. That is just one of the many insights from Tom Kingery, a United Methodist pastor, in his sixth book about Christian life. Like a photo album, each Christmas message in the Bible gives us part of the whole picture. While we may not ever get the entire picture, we can see enough of it to know what we are looking at and what we’re called on to do because of it. Most of the sermons in this book were offered as a series of messages during the weeks up to and including Christmas Eve and Christmas Day. Kingery presents them as different parts of a “gallery” of images and impressions, encouraging you to enjoy the offerings and as you move closer to the Lord.

Download or read book Soul s Spiritual Travails written by Aalok and published by Notion Press. This book was released on 2023-07-25 with total page 349 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book attempts in making in-roads, in to ‘Spirituality’, for the usage of a common man, in personal and professional lives. Initially, the book introduces 'Terminologies', needed to grasp the ‘Concept of Spirituality’. The book takes us on the journey of ‘Decision Making’, a critical aspect of human lives. Our actions are dependent on the decisions that we make. We know that actions create Karmas. Actions are preceded by ‘Thoughts’ and have two back stage operators- 'Emotions and Intent'. 'Karmas' are thus, initiated, moment 'Intents and Emotions' are set in. Did you also know that our 'Intents and Emotions' have a source in our 'EGO'? The book goes on to provide 'Simple and Short' acronyms for its readers to 'delve into', to practice them in their routine daily life, and to make their lives more effective. The book takes us to application of 'Spirituality' in the daily routine of one day of living. This entails raising our energies high enough, even to manifest what we wish to attain and that which we wish to discard. Before coming to nine meditations in the last Chapter of the book, it also covers, "How to attain ‘Oneness’ and ‘Universal Consciousness’, much needed for living in ‘Awareness’. This would lead us to be ‘Balanced and Discriminative’. This ensures us to understand our own-selves better and make us more contributing to the society around us. Meditation makes us ‘Focus and Concentrate', initially on '3-D Object (s), then to a Line (2-D), to a Point (1-D), and finally on The Subtle SELF'. The book, paves the path for us to move beyond 'Maya-Ignorance’, which binds and limits the human through development and usage of ‘Intellect’. This would make us un-limited, free, balanced, and make us apply infinitude and oneness, in our routine lives.

Download or read book The Proteus Paradox written by Nick Yee and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2014-01-28 with total page 262 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Proteus, the mythical sea god who could alter his appearance at will, embodies one of the promises of online games: the ability to reinvent oneself. Yet inhabitants of virtual worlds rarely achieve this liberty, game researcher Nick Yee contends. Though online games evoke freedom and escapism, Yee shows that virtual spaces perpetuate social norms and stereotypes from the offline world, transform play into labor, and inspire racial scapegoating and superstitious thinking. And the change that does occur is often out of our control and effected by unparalleled—but rarely recognized—tools for controlling what players think and how they behave.div /DIVUsing player surveys, psychological experiments, and in-game data, Yee breaks down misconceptions about who plays fantasy games and the extent to which the online and offline worlds operate separately. With a wealth of entertaining and provocative examples, he explains what virtual worlds are about and why they matter, not only for entertainment but also for business and education. He uses gaming as a lens through which to examine the pressing question of what it means to be human in a digital world. His thought-provoking book is an invitation to think more deeply about virtual worlds and what they reveal to us about ourselves. div /DIV
