This book was released on 2021-08-27 with total page 326 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: America has almost never been more divided. Author Elaine Parke, MBA, CS, CM, NSA, believes the core problem is that our founders created a Bill of Rights but failed to write a Bill of Responsibilities. To be a healthy nation, citizens, as individuals, must also unite around the daily practice of democratic ideals. This doesn’t mean we all think alike. It does mean we treat others equally, and with dignity, respect, and kindness. The Habits of Unity: 12 Months to a Stronger America...One Citizen at a Time is a one-minute-a-day action guide to a better life and a more empowered citizenship. Each of the twelve months of the year is branded with one colorful habit-forming value like resolve conflicts, help others, and be more positive. When practiced daily by patriots, these 12 unity habits emerge as a citizens “Bill of 12 Responsibilities” that make life better for everyone. As a former corporate executive whose job was in part to help people get along better, Parke came up with this one-minute-at-a-time, one-value-a-month game plan. She’s been teaching it in schools and communities for thirty years—and seeing results. Nine independent studies have evaluated it and found it connected people and that individual behaviors improved. The London Institute named it a Social Invention. This isn’t a book about habits—it is a habit-forming book.

Book excerpt: Starting right now, today, you and I can build the momentum towards more equality and unity in America - while uplifting our own lives too. This is the win-win cliché of all time – together we don’t fall down, we all lift up. If we haven’t learned much else from social media, we’ve learned that shared thoughts, for good or bad, that are truth or fake truths, become powerful beyond measure when they reach lots of people at the same time and are repeated over and over again. This isn’t a book ABOUT habits – it is a HABIT-FORMING book. When you take it home and begin your “one-minute-a day” habit building adventure, your life and your outlook will brighten. I hope you use your social media power to share the colorful monthly messages with others. Together, we can overcome the pain of a divided America with the power of goodness because it is in these aspects of our citizenship that we are all equal.

What does the nervous system of the lowly lobster have to tell us about standing up straight (with our shoulders back) and about success in life? Why did ancient Egyptians worship the capacity to pay careful attention as the highest of gods? What dreadful paths do people tread when they become resentful, arrogant and vengeful?

Download or read book Surviving Autocracy written by Masha Gessen and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2021-06-01 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “When Gessen speaks about autocracy, you listen.” —The New York Times “A reckoning with what has been lost in the past few years and a map forward with our beliefs intact.” —Interview As seen on MSNBC’s Morning Joe and heard on NPR’s All Things Considered: the bestselling, National Book Award–winning journalist offers an essential guide to understanding, resisting, and recovering from the ravages of our tumultuous times. This incisive book provides an essential guide to understanding and recovering from the calamitous corrosion of American democracy over the past few years. Thanks to the special perspective that is the legacy of a Soviet childhood and two decades covering the resurgence of totalitarianism in Russia, Masha Gessen has a sixth sense for the manifestations of autocracy—and the unique cross-cultural fluency to delineate their emergence to Americans. Gessen not only anatomizes the corrosion of the institutions and cultural norms we hoped would save us but also tells us the story of how a short few years changed us from a people who saw ourselves as a nation of immigrants to a populace haggling over a border wall, heirs to a degraded sense of truth, meaning, and possibility. Surviving Autocracy is an inventory of ravages and a call to account but also a beacon to recovery—and to the hope of what comes next.

One day fourteen-year-old Sophie Amundsen comes home from school to find in her mailbox two notes, with one question on each: "Who are you?" and "Where does the world come from?" From that irresistible beginning, Sophie becomes obsessed with questions that take her far beyond what she knows of her Norwegian village. Through those letters, she enrolls in a kind of correspondence course, covering Socrates to Sartre, with a mysterious philosopher, while receiving letters addressed to another girl. Who is Hilde? And why does her mail keep turning up? To unravel this riddle, Sophie must use the philosophy she is learning—but the truth turns out to be far more complicated than she could have imagined.
