Book Synopsis Leading from Purpose by : Nick Craig
Download or read book Leading from Purpose written by Nick Craig and published by Hachette Books. This book was released on 2018-06-05 with total page 253 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Drawing on ten years of experience working with more than 10,000 executives from companies around the globe, Nick Craig takes you on a revelatory journey to understand your purpose, find clarity and focus, and lead with inspiration. When uncovered, purpose becomes our most fundamental guiding principle. Explaining where true purpose lies and demystifying where it doesn't, Craig offers the methods through which anyone can find their purpose. He identifies three pathways that will assess where you are with your purpose and where you should be going. Illustrated by case studies of leaders from all walks of life and industries, Craig shares their unique stories to show how top leaders are energized by their purpose, finding in it the confidence they need to properly evaluate high-stakes decisions and take the optimal action. The best leaders access their purpose especially when facing the unknown, drawing on the source of it to energize themselves. Purpose also redefines their relationships to stress, allowing them to thrive where others just survived, and to postpone momentary, fleeting rewards in favor of leaving a sustained, meaningful impact. Accessible, methodical, and eminently practical, Leading from Purpose offers the comprehensive toolbox with which everyone -- whether a c-suite executive of behind-the-scenes office worker -- can live out their purpose and achieve success on their own terms. If you find yourself in an organization that is struggling to live its purpose, Craig's insights on how to bring your purpose and the organization's purpose into the same room at the same time is game-changing and will redefine your life and career.
Download or read book The Lunatic written by Nick Hammer and published by Trafford Publishing. This book was released on 2008-07-31 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In part one of The Lunatic we find that the protagonist, Nicholas Antonus, has been mistakenly sentenced by a court of law to the Guilford mental institution. The staff runs the asylum in a most decidedly, diabolical manner. Nicholas chronicles all the horrific treatment in a secret journal so that someday others will know of this place. As the months go by and more patients "disappear," Nicholas fears that he will soon be the next victim. He has no immediate family and the mail has long since been discontinued, access to any telephone is prohibited. There is not one professional in the entire building that he can trust and who could notify the proper authorities about the daily crimes committed by the doctors and nurses. Finally, on a drug-clear day, Nicholas realizes that the review board has no intention of releasing him back into society and that he must risk escape or he too will leave Guilford by its chimney flue. In the second part of the book Nicholas is on the lam, returning to the Greek isle of Loxos to seek refuge and to reunite with relatives. He is readily welcomed back into the Ninios household and luxuriates in his new freedom. Nikos' days are spent at harbor cafes, sketching the townspeople, or wandering the streets and hillside villages drawing scenes of daily life. At night Nikos goes to the tavernas to watch the men dance and drink with the wild and funny Micales the butcher and Hassan the lonely, bootblack dwarf. Soon the signs of Nikos' periodic illness resurface. At first he dismisses the symptoms because the interval between the first and second occurrence has been so great, leading him to believe that he is perfectly all right. But frighteningly, he has two other separate episodes in quick succession and it is these attacks that make it quite clear to him that something is terribly wrong. He then worries for his family's safety and plans to leave the island at once.

He hears shouts and gunshots and catches sight of someone running in the street — if only they could fly away, he thinks.

Back at home he makes a kite, and that night he flies it from his rooftop, imagining what it can see.

This book was released on 2020-10-13 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A unique account of the amazing Thai cave rescue told in a heart-racing, you-are-there style that blends suspense, science, and cultural insight. On June 23, 2018, twelve young players of the Wild Boars soccer team and their coach enter a cave in northern Thailand seeking an afternoon’s adventure. But when they turn to leave, rising floodwaters block their path out. The boys are trapped! Before long, news of the missing team spreads, launching a seventeen-day rescue operation involving thousands of rescuers from around the globe. As the world sits vigil, people begin to wonder: how long can a group of ordinary kids survive in complete darkness, with no food or clean water? Luckily, the Wild Boars are a very extraordinary "ordinary" group. Combining firsthand interviews of rescue workers with in-depth science and details of the region's culture and religion, author Christina Soontornvat—who was visiting family in Northern Thailand when the Wild Boars went missing—masterfully shows how both the complex engineering operation above ground and the mental struggles of the thirteen young people below proved critical in the life-or-death mission. Meticulously researched and generously illustrated with photographs, this page-turner includes an author’s note describing her experience meeting the team, detailed source notes, and a bibliography to fully immerse readers in the most ambitious cave rescue in history.
