Book excerpt: A Guide to Actually Getting Whatever You Really Want from Live You're Already Wired for Exceptional Success BUT: Those same programs also have given you your greatest failures. If you've ever had a complete melt-down, a real failure of your mindset, where the world has seemingly gone to hell and stayed there, you're not alone. it's just sad to tell you that it's your own damned fault. What makes it worse is to find out that all you need to succeed was already programmed into you - and has been since you were born. Then how did you get into that mess? By believing what people told you as you were raised, and in every school you went to, all your on the job training, every movie you ever saw, or song you ever heard. All those lessons and examples just helped you believe in something other than your own ability to become great. Most of what we are told these days are that the environment makes the individual. However, this has only really been taught since just after World War II. Long, long before that, there were many schools of thought which held that the individual creates their own success in this world, or lack of it. And that is a far longer tradition, across our 10,000 years of culture, back through our verbal traditions and storytellers. Some of our oldest traditions, such as the Tibetan Book of the Dead, say that as children we have complete access to all the world's knowledge - up to the point we learn to talk. And other traditions say that we can each still tap into unlimited knowledge. Some studies begun in the 1950's and verified through testing, have shown this to still be true. Unfortunately, this isn't what Conventional Wisdom says. Most Science disagrees. And it isn't what any government or school wants you to believe. All the best authorities... However, one of the oldest phrases, published in books in various formats throughout all of our recorded works, says the same thing in various ways: We Become What We Think About. What you think and how you think is up to you. How you think consistently, the mental habits you've developed, are those you chose for yourself. If you build those mental habits stacked on top of unproved, untested data, then you risk your sanity because you listened to all these sources and chose to think that way. The economic crash of 2008 affected a lot of people adversely. But a lot more people survived. The U.S. election of 2016 affected a lot of people adversely. But a lot more people survived. There will always be more adverse situations ahead. Because that's the cyclical history of this mudball we live on. But you don't have to repeat these failures, these crashes. In this book you can learn: How to change your habitual thinking to change the world you live in. How to discover and change the brittle beliefs that make those emotional crashes and failures. Who is behind all the false data and fake news you were told, and how to get them off your lines. The simple way to get all you've ever dreamed of being and having. How to make your success automatic from here on out. And best of all, it won't cost you a cent (beyond the price of this book...) Ready? The second best time to start is today. Get Your Copy Now.

Book excerpt: The One Reason For Success - and Failure - Lies Within You Have you ever had a complete melt-down, a real failure of your world-view, where the world has gone to hell and stayed there? Sad to tell you: it's your own damned fault. What makes it worse is to find out that everything you ever needed to succeed is already programmed into you - and has been since you were born. Then how did you get into that mess? By blindly accepting and believing what people told you as you were raised, and in every school you went to, all your on-the-job-training, all the books you ever read, every movie you ever saw, or song you ever heard. All those lessons and examples just helped you believe in somethingother than your own natural ability to succeed. Most of what we are told these days are based on that bogus idea that the environment makes the individual. But there is a much longer tradition that the individual makes his own success in this world. Having built-in, pre-programmed abilities from birth is a far longer tradition, back to our verbal traditions and storytellers. Unfortunately, we've all been trained since childhood to believe what we've been told, to not look closely at what we're told, to not think for ourselves, to not act on what we think will work better. We've been mentally crippled into only living the same life as everyone else- going to work at a job we don't necessarily like, giving up on our hopes and dreams as "unrealistic", living out our lives like everyone else and hoping that retirement is paid for by somebody. What you think and how you think is up to you. How you think consistently, the mental habits you've developed, are those you chose for yourself. You don't have to live this nightmare. You are capable of much, much more. This book tells you how you've been told things work, and exposes the authorities you've been listening to are frauds, like the "wizard" behind the curtain. This is what you've personally suspected all along. This guide you you can be reading has a lot of my story, but it has more to the story of how the mental world we create really works. It's been written for you to help you either recover from a recent crash, for help you make your belief-system more impervious to any future ones. The third option is to help you embrace the crashes when they occur. That last one is for entrepreneurs, who take risks most of us wouldn't (but perhaps all of us should.) You could say that life crashes happen due to "brittle" world views. The belief-systems which are more resilient can withstand far more than we would ever ask of them. If you want one of those resilient belief-systems, you're going to have to work out how to strip down and rebuild and tune your own mental enginewhile you are using it to drive to work every day and taking the kids to their sports events or visiting their relatives on the weekend. You can't just get away with putting it in the shop and driving a loaner. The trick to this is that we can change and improve our beliefs at any time. We only have to decide to do it and then do it.

Download or read book The Art of Asking written by Amanda Palmer and published by Grand Central Publishing. This book was released on 2014-11-11 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: FOREWORD BY BRENE BROWN and POSTSCRIPT FROM BRAIN PICKINGS CREATOR MARIA POPOVA Rock star, crowdfunding pioneer, and TED speaker Amanda Palmer knows all about asking. Performing as a living statue in a wedding dress, she wordlessly asked thousands of passersby for their dollars. When she became a singer, songwriter, and musician, she was not afraid to ask her audience to support her as she surfed the crowd (and slept on their couches while touring). And when she left her record label to strike out on her own, she asked her fans to support her in making an album, leading to the world's most successful music Kickstarter. Even while Amanda is both celebrated and attacked for her fearlessness in asking for help, she finds that there are important things she cannot ask for-as a musician, as a friend, and as a wife. She learns that she isn't alone in this, that so many people are afraid to ask for help, and it paralyzes their lives and relationships. In this groundbreaking book, she explores these barriers in her own life and in the lives of those around her, and discovers the emotional, philosophical, and practical aspects of THE ART OF ASKING. Part manifesto, part revelation, this is the story of an artist struggling with the new rules of exchange in the twenty-first century, both on and off the Internet. THE ART OF ASKING will inspire readers to rethink their own ideas about asking, giving, art, and love.

Download or read book Scaling Up Excellence written by Robert I. Sutton and published by Currency. This book was released on 2014-02-04 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Wall Street Journal Bestseller "The pick of 2014's management books." –Andrew Hill, Financial Times "One of the top business books of the year." –Harvey Schacter, The Globe and Mail Bestselling author, Robert Sutton and Stanford colleague, Huggy Rao tackle a challenge that determines every organization’s success: how to scale up farther, faster, and more effectively as an organization grows. Sutton and Rao have devoted much of the last decade to uncovering what it takes to build and uncover pockets of exemplary performance, to help spread them, and to keep recharging organizations with ever better work practices. Drawing on inside accounts and case studies and academic research from a wealth of industries-- including start-ups, pharmaceuticals, airlines, retail, financial services, high-tech, education, non-profits, government, and healthcare-- Sutton and Rao identify the key scaling challenges that confront every organization. They tackle the difficult trade-offs that organizations must make between whether to encourage individualized approaches tailored to local needs or to replicate the same practices and customs as an organization or program expands. They reveal how the best leaders and teams develop, spread, and instill the right mindsets in their people-- rather than ruining or watering down the very things that have fueled successful growth in the past. They unpack the principles that help to cascade excellence throughout an organization, as well as show how to eliminate destructive beliefs and behaviors that will hold them back. Scaling Up Excellence is the first major business book devoted to this universal and vexing challenge and it is destined to become the standard bearer in the field.

Download or read book Deep Work written by Cal Newport and published by Hachette UK. This book was released on 2016-01-05 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: AN AMAZON BEST BOOK OF 2O16 PICK IN BUSINESS & LEADERSHIP WALL STREET JOURNAL BUSINESS BESTSELLER A BUSINESS BOOK OF THE WEEK AT 800-CEO-READ Master one of our economy’s most rare skills and achieve groundbreaking results with this “exciting” book (Daniel H. Pink) from an “exceptional” author (New York Times Book Review). Deep work is the ability to focus without distraction on a cognitively demanding task. It's a skill that allows you to quickly master complicated information and produce better results in less time. Deep Work will make you better at what you do and provide the sense of true fulfillment that comes from craftsmanship. In short, deep work is like a super power in our increasingly competitive twenty-first century economy. And yet, most people have lost the ability to go deep-spending their days instead in a frantic blur of e-mail and social media, not even realizing there's a better way. In Deep Work, author and professor Cal Newport flips the narrative on impact in a connected age. Instead of arguing distraction is bad, he instead celebrates the power of its opposite. Dividing this book into two parts, he first makes the case that in almost any profession, cultivating a deep work ethic will produce massive benefits. He then presents a rigorous training regimen, presented as a series of four "rules," for transforming your mind and habits to support this skill. 1. Work Deeply 2. Embrace Boredom 3. Quit Social Media 4. Drain the Shallows A mix of cultural criticism and actionable advice, Deep Work takes the reader on a journey through memorable stories-from Carl Jung building a stone tower in the woods to focus his mind, to a social media pioneer buying a round-trip business class ticket to Tokyo to write a book free from distraction in the air-and no-nonsense advice, such as the claim that most serious professionals should quit social media and that you should practice being bored. Deep Work is an indispensable guide to anyone seeking focused success in a distracted world.

Book excerpt: Everyone gets 168 hours a week, but it never feels like enough, does it? Work gobbles up the lion's share--many professionals are working as much as 70 hours a week--leaving less and less for rest, exercise, family, and friends. You know, all those things that make life great. Most people think productivity is about finding or saving time. But it's not. It's about making our time work for us. Just imagine having free time again. It's not a pipe dream. In Free to Focus, New York Times bestselling author Michael Hyatt reveals to readers nine proven ways to win at work so they are finally free to succeed at the rest of life--their health, relationships, hobbies, and more. He helps readers redefine their goals, evaluate what's working, cut out the nonessentials, focus on the most important tasks, manage their time and energy, and build momentum for a lifetime of success.
