Book excerpt: O Bestseller ingles Globetrotter chega ao Brasil. E por um bom motivo! O homem mais viajado do mundo, Ian Boudreault, sempre disse que o Brasil foi seu pais favorito no mundo! Uma historia real e de tirar o folego sobre dedicacao, perseveranca e inovacao no empreendedorismo online e alternativa de vida. Um testemunho sobre como levar os limites da curiosidade humana a novas fronteiras."e;Antes da era Covid-19, ser um globetrotter digital e passar por todos os paises do mundo parecia estar na moda, por isso Ian estava definitivamente criando uma tendencia"e; - Tony Wheeler, Co-fundador da Lonely PlanetO que voce poderia aprender apos mais de vinte anos passados percorrendo o planeta, sendo dezessete deles sem pausas, como um empreendedor digital? O quanto a sua vida poderia mudar apos explorar todos os paises do mundo, 230 paises incluindo cada um dos 195 reconhecidos pelas Nacoes Unidas? Esse e o relato de uma incrivel jornada com reviravoltas e aventuras sem fim. Sao dezessete anos vivendo e trabalhando com uma mochila nas costas, carregando consigo apenas o absolutamente essencial para viver confortavelmente, financiado pelo home office, atraves das maravilhas da renda passiva. A historia sobre como um homem destinado a uma carreira promissora de Engenharia se tornou assombrado pela ideia de ter que viver uma rotina de trabalho das nove da manha as cinco da tarde, engatilhando seus instintos nomadicos para escolher uma vida em que ele pudesse dedicar cada dia de sua existencia para viver, respirando e experimentando a liberdade, muitas aventuras e surpresas. A historia de como um homem que, embora curioso sobre o que o mundo reservou para ele, se apaixonou pelo Brasil e seu povo, lutando para decidir entre ficar ou continuar seu caminho para novos horizontes.Um testemunho inspirador sobre formas alternativas de viver a vida fora dos caminhos tradicionais que nos sempre conhecemos. Uma reflexao sobre o nivel de liberdade que uma pessoa consegue alcancar quando se da essa oportunidade. Uma sede por conhecimento guiada por um desejo de encontrar outros colegas cidadaos do mundo, desde aqueles pertencentes a tribos ate a realeza, do Afeganistao ao Zimbabue, pela terra, mar ou pelo ceu. Uma jornada motivada apenas por um desejo: descobrir o desconhecido e viver cada dia como se fosse o ultimo.Abandonar a seguranca e o conforto da civilizacao ocidental nao e a coisa mais intuitiva a se fazer. A historia de um sonhador que, por toda a sua vida, teve o desejo de viajar e que, com o diploma de Engenharia em maos, decidiu jogar tudo fora e arriscar uma saida da vida tradicional. O conceito de empreendedorismo online era desconhecido ate entao, quando o sonhador decidiu ser o pioneiro de um novo estilo de vida e apostar "e;tudo ou nada"e; em uma configuracao de nomade digital para custear seu amor por viajar. Uma jornada que, de forma vagarosa, certamente o guiaria por todos os paises do mundo.Uma longa viagem que, invariavelmente, trouxe um catalogo de inesperadas anedotas fresquinhas. Seu habito de sempre testar o territorio e socializar nas mais diversificadas situacoes o levou a se infiltrar em tribos na Africa, Oriente Medio e nas Ilhas do Pacifico, a se juntar as comunidades de surfistas nos mares mais remotos ou ate dividir refeicoes com os nomades mongois, assim como com ministros afegaos. Seu estilo incomum de viajar o levou a navegar o Oceano Pacifico, de navios cargueiros a iates, cruzando fronteiras internacionais pela selva em uma motocicleta e, ate mesmo, embarcar em trens intercontinentais por milhares de quilometros. Isso muitas vezes o levava a encarar os horrores da guerra em locais como Siria, Iemen, Iraque e Libia, enquanto escapava das maos do terrorismo por muitas ocasioes.Essa e uma historia de um aventureiro inquieto com gosto pela vida.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: O concurso Pixel (de pequenas histórias lgbt) foi pensado para acontecer no universo dos blogues, na imensa minoria da dita blogayesfera, e já contou com duas edições que decorreram no blogue de que sou autor. O objetivo não foi procurar escritores, mas histórias, fossem elas verídicas ou imaginadas, e contadas das mais variadas formas (prosa, poesia, vídeo, imagens, sons...). A primeira edição do concurso foi dedicada ao tema Good friends are hard to find (título de uma música de Ed Harcourt, que também dá o nome ao meu blogue), por ser um tema que nos é sempre muito caro, e porque no âmago da blogosfera está a procura de amigos, em especial daqueles mais difíceis de encontrar. A segunda edição do Pixel teve como mote Aquele abraço (mais uma vez título de uma música, de Gilberto Gil), porque a blogosfera é também um grande abraço que nos une a todos, incluindo os que estão do lado de lá do Atlântico. Sad Eyes (blogue "good friends are hard to find")-
Download or read book Wiving written by Caitlin Myer and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2020-07-28 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Most Anticipated Memoirs of 2020, She Reads • Bay Area Authors to Read This Summer, 7X7 A literary memoir of one woman's journey from wife to warrior, in the vein of breakout hits like Cheryl Strayed's Wild and Jeannette Walls's The Glass Castle. At thirty-six years old, Caitlin Myer is ready to start a family with her husband. She has left behind the restrictive confines of her Mormon upbringing and early sexual trauma and believes she is now living her happily ever after . . . when her body betrays her. In a single week, she suffers the twin losses of a hysterectomy and the death of her mother, and she is jolted into a terrible awakening that forces her to reckon with her past—and future. This is the story of one woman’s lifelong combat with a culture—her “escape” from religion at age twenty, only to find herself similarly entrapped in the gender conventions of the secular culture at large, conventions that teach girls and women to shape themselves to please men, to become good wives and mothers. The biblical characters Yael and Judith, wives who became assassins, become her totems as she evolves from wifely submission to warrior independence. An electric debut that loudly redefines our notions of womanhood, Wiving grapples with the intersections of religion and sex, trauma and love, sickness and mental illness, and a woman’s harrowing enlightenment. Building on the literary tradition of difficult women who struggle to be heard, Wiving introduces an urgent, striking voice to the scene of contemporary women’s writing at a time when we must explode old myths and build new stories in their place.

Download or read book Envelhecimento s written by Margarida Pedroso de Lima and published by Imprensa da Universidade de Coimbra / Coimbra University Press. This book was released on 2010-05-01 with total page 140 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Não acordámos ainda para a nova realidade das pessoas mais velhas — mais idosas, com uma esperança de vida bem mais longa do que há umas décadas atrás e com as gerações sucessivas a mostrarem ganhos ao nível físico e mental. Pelo contrário, continuamos a julgá-las com base em crenças e preconceitos, ultrapassados. O objetivo deste livro é o de pôr em causa, de uma forma simples e prática, algumas das crenças que estão na base da discriminação e da exclusão das pessoas mais velhas. Acreditamos que viver bem é simples e, muitas vezes, depende da desconstrução de algumas ideias feitas que nos aprisionam e limitam a nossa capacidade de sermos felizes e livres. Promover o bem-estar dos mais velhos implica uma sociedade com mais reforços disponíveis e com um maior número de escolhas possíveis ao longo de todo o ciclo de vida.

Download or read book Onlearning How disruptive education reinvents learning written by José Cláudio Securato and published by Saint Paul. This book was released on 2020-06-23 with total page 503 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Onlearning - How disruptive education reinvents learning brings a new concept, which appears as a response to the desire for change in education, specifically in education for executives, in the face of the exponential and out-of-sync transformations of society, which happen through technology and revolutionize organizations, people's lives and customs; with the aim of extracting the best from this evolution and expanding it in a maximized way into executive learning. The work consists of three parts: Part I deals with the history of work–oriented education, executive education, and business schools. It shows how the teaching of Administration was formalized, mainly by business schools, and what learning and cognition methodologies were developed by the various thinkers of the 19th and 20th centuries, whose models have repercussions until today. Part II outlines the scenario in which technology and digital transformation are consolidated as fundamental means for creating disruption in the most diverse areas of knowledge and industry sectors. It approaches how Clayton Christensen's theory of disruptive strategy defies the logic of traditional innovation, as well as what are the effects of new technologies on the economy, society and people's lives, and how fast are they advancing to become accessible, radically transforming reality. Finally, Part III deals with education and Saint Paul's disruptive proposal for executive education, Onlearning. It reflects on the need for education to concretely impact technological evolution in a broad way, in its economic and social aspect. It ends by presenting 20 conclusions on Onlearning, featuring objectives, actions, and projections for the future of education, based on the proposal to reinvent education through the resources that technology and digital transformation make available to everyone.
Download or read book The Treasure Season 2 written by Paulo Sergio Santos Negrete and published by Clube de Autores. This book was released on 2021-07-21 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Our Season 2 starts when Bob, Johnny, and Stephanie received a call from D.C., to get help from Agent Sawyer, Bob´s uncle. They will need to use federal resources to decode that letter...something impossible even for an FBI agent with friends in high places, This English textbook is based on the theoretical development of Neuropedia™ and the newest developments of neuroscience applied in foreign language learning. The material reflects the theory of Neuropedia™ in its entirety; the global and artistic approaches; when grammar and lexicology are repeated in intervals and reviewed to exploit the psychological spacing effect; the presentation of the study material to students in a specific time frame, as a minimum, at least 2 to 3 times more material in volume than the existing established norm by other methodologies; the Theory of Globality where the material taught cannot be separated from the element and its whole, and never taught and learned in an isolated mode. For example words, grammar, etc., do not exist separately from the language; they are part of the discourse. Each global conglomerate is part of a larger global conglomerate and thus it goes on ad infinitum. Finally, the book reflects the Golden Proportion, its beauty and balance, and the use of classical art and its aesthetics. During the foreign language teaching according to the principles of Neuropedia™, there is simultaneous activation of the left and right hemispheres of the brain, although in varying degrees. Students report a feeling of pleasant learning while they develop creative memory through logical-emotional and conscious-paraconscious activities in class.
