Download or read book Greatness written by Don Yaeger and published by Hachette UK. This book was released on 2011-10-24 with total page 214 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: GREATNESS is a motivational book whose target audience is found in business and self-help. It is a life book, aimed at inspiring others to achieve their personal and professional best. Opening with an in-depth discussion of the nature of Greatness-what it is, what it is not, and why it is worth pursing-each subsequent chapter of the book consists of a detailed story illustrating one aspect of Greatness with examples from the sports greats that Don has interviewed over the years. This will be followed by a discussion and other related examples. There are also practical tips and plans for assisting the reader in implementing new habits, routines, practices, and philosophies of Greatness into his or her daily life. As each characteristic is outlined, the reader is challenged to look for areas in his or her professional and personal lives that can be improved by embracing these lessons. As Don often says during his speeches, "Though these characteristics are culled from some of the greatest winners in sports, not a single one requires you to be able to touch your toes! These iconic figures in sports have provided a classroom for us to learn about their pursuit of Greatness. You don't have to be good at sports - heck, you don't even have to like sports - to benefit from their lessons." It is the strong belief of those who Don has talked to over the years that greatness is available to all of us. Not in the same way or on the same field, mind you. But we all have the capacity to achieve greatness if we'll give the same dedication to these characteristics as do the winners presented and interviewed in GREATNESS.

Download or read book The Complexity of Greatness written by Scott Barry Kaufman and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2013-05-22 with total page 464 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What are the origins of greatness? Few other questions have caused such intense debate, controversy, and diversity of opinions. In recent years, a large body of research has accumulated that suggests that the origins of greatness are extraordinarily complex. Instead of talent or practice, it's talent and practice. Instead of nature or nature, it's nature via nurture. Instead of practice, it's deliberate practice. Instead of the causes of greatness in general, it's the determinants of greatness specific to a field. The Complexity of Greatness brings together a variety of perspectives and the most cutting-edge research on genes, talent, intelligence, expertise, deliberate practice, creativity, prodigies, savants, passion, and persistence. A variety of different domains are represented, including science, mathematics, expert memory, acting, visual arts, music, and sports. This book demonstrates that the truth about greatness is far more nuanced, complex, and fascinating than any one viewpoint or paradigm can possibly reveal. Indeed, it suggests that the time has come to go beyond talent or practice. Greatness is much, much more.

Download or read book Rise to Greatness written by Conrad Black and published by McClelland & Stewart. This book was released on 2014-11-11 with total page 1146 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Masterful, ambitious, and groundbreaking, this is a major new history of our country by one of our most respected thinkers and historians -- a book every Canadian should own. From the acclaimed biographer and historian Conrad Black comes the definitive history of Canada -- a revealing, groundbreaking account of the people and events that shaped a nation. Spanning 874 to 2014, and beginning from Canada's first inhabitants and the early explorers, this masterful history challenges our perception of our history and Canada's role in the world. From Champlain to Carleton, Baldwin and Lafontaine, to MacDonald, Laurier, and King, Canada's role in peace and war, to Quebec's quest for autonomy, Black takes on sweeping themes and vividly recounts the story of Canada's development from colony to dominion to country. Black persuasively reveals that while many would argue that Canada was perhaps never predestined for greatness, the opposite is in fact true: the emergence of a magnificent country, against all odds, was a remarkable achievement. Brilliantly conceived, this major new reexamination of our country's history is a riveting tour de force by one of the best writers writing today.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Once upon a time, in a small town called Cox, there lived a kind and generous woman named Lily. Lily was known in the town for her compassionate nature and willingness to help anyone in need. One day, Lily noticed a young girl who was crying on the sidewalk. She approached the girl, whose name was Dorathy and asked if she needed any help. The girl explained that she had lost her way home and was feeling scared and alone. Lily immediately took the girl under her wing, comforting her and helping her find her way home. The girl was so grateful for Lily’s kindness that she told her parents about the woman who had helped her. The following week, Lily received a thank you note from the girl’s parents, expressing their gratitude for her kindness. The note also mentioned that they had been struggling financially and were finding it difficult to put food on the table for their family. Moved by the family’s situation, Lily decided to help them out. She started cooking extra food every day and would bring it to their doorstep. The family was amazed by her generosity and kindness. But Lily’s kindness didn’t stop there. She began to notice other families in the town who were struggling, and she started to offer her help to them too. She would hire babysitters for families who couldn’t afford a babysitter, and she would even give them money when they needed it. The kindness and generosity of Lily started to spread throughout the town, and soon others started to follow in her footsteps. People began to see the impact that one act of kindness could have, and they started to look for ways to help others too. As more and more people in the town started to practice kindness, it created a ripple effect. The town became a much more caring and compassionate place, and people started to feel a sense of community that they had never felt before. Years later, Lily grew old and left Cox to another town. And one day, as she was walking on the sidewalk, she accidentally stepped on
