«Tu montaña es el obstáculo entre tú y la vida que
quieres vivir. Enfrentarlo también es el único camino hacia tu libertad y conversión […] Tal vez sabes qué es tu montaña. Quizás es la adicción, el peso, las relaciones, los trabajos, la motivación o el dinero. Quizá no lo sabes. A lo mejor es una vaga sensación de ansiedad, baja autoestima, miedo o un descontento general que parece impregnar todo lo demás».
Brianna Wiest

Las montañas simbolizan los grandes desafíos que enfrentamos, en especial aquellos que parecen imposibles de superar. Para conquistar la cumbre es necesario aprender a identificar y cambiar las conductas que nos llevan al autosabotaje.

Por medio del conocimiento y la aceptación de nuestros hábitos más dañinos, el desarrollo de inteligencia emocional, la liberación de experiencias pasadas a nivel celular y el aprendizaje de actuar como nuestro yo del futuro podemos abrir nuestro propio camino hacia cualquier cima. Al final, la montaña no se moverá, seremos nosotros quienes lograremos conquistarla.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

This is a book about self-sabotage. Why we do it, when we do it, and how to stop doing it—for good. Coexisting but conflicting needs create self-sabotaging behaviors. This is why we resist efforts to change, often until they feel completely futile. But by extracting crucial insight from our most damaging habits, building emotional intelligence by better understanding our brains and bodies, releasing past experiences at a cellular level, and learning to act as our highest potential future selves, we can step out of our own way and into our potential. For centuries, the mountain has been used as a metaphor for the big challenges we face, especially ones that seem impossible to overcome. To scale our mountains, we actually have to do the deep internal work of excavating trauma, building resilience, and adjusting how we show up for the climb. In the end, it is not the mountain we master, but ourselves.

Legacy was written to simplify the process and accelerate people’s pursuit of a purposeful life filled with the satisfaction and impact their hearts are longing for.

Legacy makers aren’t born. They’re made.

It has been taught that legacies were meant for the rich, famous, world leaders, and innovators. However, after observing a relatively unknown man build a legacy that rivaled many of the most notable people in history, Marcum Davis came to understand that legacies are not reserved for the elite. In fact, they are attainable for people from all walks of life.

But how does one build a legacy? How can a “regular” person lead an impactful life of purpose and fulfillment worth remembering?

After years of study and practice, Marcum discovered a fundamental five-part formula that anyone can apply to their daily lives, known as the P.E.A.C.E. Legacy Formula, which he shares in the pages of Legacy.

Following the P.E.A.C.E. Legacy Formula will begin to improve one’s quality of life from the start, as they begin to feel their excitement and energy rise up and touch everything they do.

Legacy was written for anyone who wants to make the most of each day and live a more meaningful life. It serves as a guide and support system in the creation of a life and legacy that impacts not only the individual, but their loved ones, and the world around them.

Limitless You helps those seeking to live fully become more self-aware of their emotions and thoughts, by identifying the tricks and traps of the mind and creating the life they deserve to live. 

Every person is born with a beautiful purpose for their lives; yet past experiences, societal expectations, and accumulated trauma leave many feeling unworthy and fearful of pursuing their passions. The tricks and traps of the brain can convince anyone to move through life with their heads down, eyes glazed, but according to Holly Wynn, human beings aren’t meant to go through the motions!

Too many interpret their inner voice saying, “I can’t live like this anymore,” as instruction to remove themselves from this life altogether, rather than an invitation to take steps toward meaningful changes to make life better. In the aftermath of COVID-19’s “new normal,” personal loss and tragedy are far too common, leaving individuals feeling trapped. In Limitless You, Holly Wynn encourages readers to take action, unlocking the door to their heart and embracing the purpose they were meant for.  

In the Wall Street Journal and USA Today Best Seller Legendary, Tommy Breedlove provides a playbook of simple tools and strategies anyone can use to become truly Legendary in business and in life. Created from years of research, study, and practice in the areas of self-development, mindset mastery, relationship building, and business leadership, the Legendary playbook can help you:

Regardless of the obstacles you face, mistakes you’ve made in the past, where you live, what your background is, or how much money you make, you have what it takes to become a Legend.

The only question remaining is whether you will choose to step into your greater purpose to live a truly Legendary life.

Will you step up and do what it takes to become Legendary?

Learn to overcome trauma, adversity, and struggle by unleashing the science of hope in your daily life with this inspiring and informative guide.

Hope is much more than wishful thinking. Science tells us that it is the most predictive indicator of well-being in a person’s life. Hope is measurable. It is malleable. And it changes lives. In Hope Rising, Casey Gwinn and Chan Hellman reveal the latest science of hope using nearly 2,000 published studies, including their own research. Based on their findings, they make an impassioned call for hope to be the focus not only of our personal lives, but of public policy for education, business, social services, and every part of society.

Hope Rising provides a roadmap to measure hope in your life. It teaches you to assess what may have robbed you of hope, and then provides strategies to let your hope flourish once again. The authors challenge every reader to be honest about their own struggles and end the cycle of shame and blame related to trauma, illness, and abuse. These are important first steps toward increasing your Hope score—and thriving because of it.

Find Kiran is for those who know something has to change but do not want another quick fix that fades.

Kiran means “ray of light.” This inspirational guidebook is about that finding that inner light—the part that has always been there, even if it’s been buried, dimmed, or ignored.

Built from thousands of hours with executives, professionals, and students in both high school and college, Find Kiran blends real stories, trusted research, prompts that open doors, and a soundtrack designed to be felt as much as heard.

Individuals will explore what gives them energy, uncover their strengths, clarify their values, and set intentions they can keep. They will learn how to let go of what is heavy, carry forward what matters, and turn insight into momentum they can sustain.

The process is simple and deliberate: Four steps take people from knowing themselves, to releasing what holds them back, to building a bridge toward what comes next. Every step is clear. Every tool has been tested. The result is greater clarity, a renewed sense of purpose, and momentum that lasts.

The journey begins here.

• Set Goals: Clarify your objectives and remain unwavering on your path to success
• Train to Win: Embrace perpetual learning and avoid distractions to stay inspired and resilient
• Clear Your Mind: Musashi's key concept of "no-mind" (the ability to act intuitively based on instinct, developed through endless practice) enables you to maintain focus and avoid ego-driven pitfalls
• Confuse Your Opponent: Gain strategic advantage by disguising your true intentions

Every day there’s a choice: drift toward mediocrity or compete for excellence.

In an comparison-obsessed world, people exhaust themselves chasing external validation while the real competition happens within. Former athlete turned performance coach Jake Thompson reveals why “being the best” leads to burnout while “becoming your best” creates sustainable success.

Beat Yesterday provides the first framework designed specifically for competitive personalities trapped in social media comparison cycles. Through proven systems like the C.O.M.P.E.T.E. and T.O.D.A.Y. frameworks, people learn to

• Transform comparison from quicksand into rocket fuel
• Redirect competitive drive toward daily internal competition
• Build sustainable excellence within real-world constraints
• Create separation through consistent 1% improvements

Design relationships and environments that elevate your game

High achievers must stop measuring themselves against everyone else’s highlight reels, and start competing with yesterday’s version of themselves. Their greatest victory won’t be beating others; it will becoming who they were designed to be.

• Meet the Three Musketeers: resilience, perseverance and self-worth
• Develop tools to feel reinvigorated and realigned
• Discover what really makes you happy
• Appreciate how helping others can lift you too

• Notice more – practise paying attention and everything gets more interesting
• Collect more – gather together what you’ve noticed, new ideas pop out 
• Share more – get good at sharing it all and more magic arrives.

'Fascinating' Psychologies
'A brilliant read' Happiful
'A really, really, really, really good book' Liz Jones, You magazine podcast

How much do you enjoy your life?

Does life feel dull? A bit grey?

Do you feel as if your emotions have flatlined?

This is anhedonia – a word only a few of us have heard of but one that explains why so many of us feel we are sleepwalking through life.

Anhedonia is from the Greek word for 'without pleasure' and describes a loss of interest in activities you once enjoyed. It explains why many of us spend our lives in a fog, feeling neither happy nor sad, just not very much at all.

In the first book to tackle this missing piece in mental health, writer Tanith Carey joins the dots on how convenience culture, stressful lifestyles, modern diets and both female and male hormonal changes can dial down our ability to feel excitement and joy.

With the help of world-leading experts and by digging into the latest research, Tanith shows you how your brain's dopamine reward system works and provides strategies to help you bring colour back into your life.

Groundbreaking, accessible and often surprising, this is the book that will teach you how to kickstart your feel-good chemicals and start loving life again.

Random Acts of Kindness ─ Inspirational Stories

Make a commitment to spread kindness wherever you go. Being kind doesn't cost anything, but it can mean the world to those around you.

What if all of a sudden everyone started performing daily good deeds? This inspiring collection presents true stories of people who've committed, received, and observed voluntary acts of kindness. Hearing their stories reveals how these simple, small acts of goodness can have a profoundly positive effect in the world. The true stories, thoughtful quotations, and suggestions for generosity in this book will inspire you to live more compassionately and be a kinder person.

Join the kindness movement. In 1995, a small group of people at Conari Press, including M.J. Ryan, Will Glennon, and Dawna Markova, came together around the idea that small gestures and simple acts can make a difference in people's lives. Thus, Random Acts of Kindness was born, but they had no idea how big this little idea would become. Soon, instead of the usual two or three letters from readers, they were getting bags of mail from readers submitting their own acts of kindness and stories of compassion. Now, twenty-five years later, over one million copies have been sold and it is a worldwide movement, with National Random Acts of Kindness Week, celebrated each February.

An inspirational gift of kind words. Sometimes the smallest gesture makes the biggest difference. This little book shows how to start—with the small, with the particular, with the individual—in order to make a difference in the world. It features:

• True stories about acts of kindness and generosity of spirit
• Suggestions for living more compassionately
• Inspirational quotes to get you started

Readers of motivational books and stories like Chicken Soup for the Soul: Random Acts of Kindness, A Pebble for Your Thoughts, I've Been Thinking…, or You Can Do All Things will love the encouraging, inspirational stories in Random Acts of Kindness.

“An eloquent reminder of the great truth that life is with people and none of us can be truly human alone.” —Harold S. Kushner, author of When Bad Things Happen to Good People 

The world is changing at lightening speed—and as a result, meaningful connections are increasingly elusive. The Community of Kindness encourages us to create new ways of building community through the practice of kindness. It is through that effort that we become most fully connected, alive, and integrated. From the people who brought us Random Acts of Kindness, this insightful book can not only lift your heart, but fill it with the happiness that comes from feeling a sense of connection with the world and people around us.

Experience the Joy of Being Kind, Again

Inspirational true stories, thoughtful quotations, and suggestions for generosity revisited in a new edition of the book series that was a national sensation.

The magic of kindness. When Random Acts of Kindness was published, no one could have guessed the reaction and consequent movement it would ignite. After its release, the Editors at Conari Press were flooded with heartwarming stories about acts of kindness from people all over the country. This book is packed with stories from people who have observed or engaged in random acts of kindness, and their stories serve as motivational messages encouraging us to go out and be a force for good. Kindness inspires kindness—this is the magic fueling the movement.

All the inspiration you need. Not only is this book full of amazing true stories of everyday kindnesses, it also shares thoughtful quotes to provide some extra inspiration for the journey. Just as one simple, small act of kindness can change someone’s entire day, compassion can change the world—especially if we all join together. This book is proof of the power and magic of kindness. By sharing the stories of a few individuals, topped with inspirational words and ideas, it serves as a resource for those wishing to make a difference in our world for the better. Open up this sequel to Random Acts of Kindness and learn more about:

• How people from every imaginable background have witnessed and practiced kindness
• The difference that one act of kindness can make
• Ways to go out and be a source of generosity and love

Readers of books such as Chicken Soup for the Soul: Random Acts of Kindness, The Power of Kindness, Go Be Kind, and How Can I Help? will love the beautiful and moving stories found in More Random Acts of Kindness.

“La disciplina, tarde o temprano, vencerá a la inteligencia”, Yokoi Kenji

Yokoi Kenji retoma en este libro historias legendarias del Japón para, al final, hacer breves comentarios a manera de conclusiones sobre la vida de hoy. Historias de monjes y fábulas dan pie para reflexiones sobre el comportamiento humano. Al igual que en Salón 8, el autor tiene como telón de fondo sus vivencias en Japón y su condición de latinoamericano. Son 41 historias cortas donde el lector se dejará envolver por cuentos casi infantiles, mágicos, para encontrar ahí la respuesta a muchas inquietudes de la vida diaria.

Lejos de dar cátedra directamente por medio de conceptos, las historias mismas van dejando reflexiones sobre la importancia de la disciplina, el valor de la amistad, la lealtad, el equilibrio entre el trabajo y el ocio, la importancia de la familia, las relaciones de pareja, entre otros temas.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

“Discipline, sooner or later, will defeat intelligence.” —Yokoi Kenji

In this book, Yokoi Kenji draws from legendary tales of Japan and offers brief reflections at the end of each one, connecting them to modern life. Stories of monks and fables become the starting point for thoughtful insights into human behavior. As in Salón 8, the author weaves in his personal experiences in Japan and his identity as a Latin American. These 41 short stories invite readers into magical, almost childlike narratives that hold answers to everyday questions.

Rather than teaching through abstract concepts, the stories themselves gently reveal reflections on the power of discipline, the value of friendship, loyalty, balance between work and leisure, the importance of family, romantic relationships, and more.

An actionable guide to mindfulness and practical ethics for any creative professional who wants to make a living without selling their soul.

It can be difficult to live according to our values in a complicated world. At a time when capitalism seems most unforgiving but the need for paying work remains high, it is important to learn how we can be more mindful and intentional about our impact — personal, social, economic, and environmental.

As designer and creative director Kelly Small had to do to navigate a crisis of ethics and burnout in their career in advertising, we can admit our complicity in problematic systems and take on the responsibility of letting our own conscience guide our decisions.

Start with one or many of these 100+ rigorously researched, ultra-practical action steps:

• Co-create and collaborate
• Get obsessed with accessibility
• Demand diverse teams
• Commit to self-care
• Make ethics a competitive edge
• Be mindful of privilege
• Create for empowerment, not exploitation

With a humorous and irreverent tone, Small reveals how when we release unnecessary judgement and become action-oriented, we can clarify the complicated business of achieving an ethical practice in the creative industries. Discover the power of incremental, positive changes in our daily work-lives and the fulfillment of purposeful work.

Why do some people blossom through adversity while others fall apart?

Author Mark Matousek examines this phenomenon by seeking advice from well-known survivors like Joan Didion and Isabel Allende and experts like Jon Kabat-Zinn to show how disasters can be used to awaken and transform us.

From a Sudanese boy slave kidnapped at age seven to a Tibetan nun imprisoned by Chinese militia, Matousek sifts through extraordinary testimonies and recent breakthroughs in neuroscience to demonstrate how we are hardwired to evolve and adapt when faced with the impossible.

In Unfiltered and Unapologetic, renowned leadership coach Judy McCutcheon shares her deeply personal journey of healing and self-discovery. Drawing from her experiences as a Caribbean business leader and certified leadership coach, McCutcheon offers wisdom on building self-worth, setting boundaries, and creating success on your own terms.

The book weaves intimate stories with actionable advice on everything from relationships and career to money management and self-acceptance. McCutcheon’s voice is both nurturing and direct as she guides readers to shed limiting beliefs and embrace their authentic selves. Each chapter includes reflection prompts (“A Conversation with Yourself”) that help readers apply the lessons to their own lives.

Perfect for women who are ready to stop apologizing for their ambition and start living life on their own terms, this book speaks especially to those navigating personal transformation, relationship challenges, or major life transitions.

LIFE IS FULL OF CHOICES AND CONSEQUENCES. CHOOSE WISELY AND WITH NO REGRETS!

Taking Chances, Making Choices is the honest, humble, and sometimes raucous tale of Kathy Stone’s evolution from an overly serious, risk-averse, independent young woman to an entrepreneur, business leader, thrill-seeker, wife, mother, and friend who dares to not only dream big, but to make those dreams a reality.

Raised in a small South Texas town, the Southern Baptist Church, and a conservative family, Kathy Stone was taught to always do what was right and proper, to follow the rules, and never cause a scene. Kathy’s courage to open herself to taking risks, to being silly even when others are watching, to understanding that we must accept the consequences of our choices—so choose wisely!—set her on an adventurous path of raising three boys, building a multi-million-dollar business with her husband, finding friends in unexpected places, traveling the world, finding an unparalleled freedom in skydiving, and helping others more than she ever imagined possible. All while holding tight to her personal values and letting her faith lead the way. And in Decide to Dream, she shows you how you, too, can live the life you’ve always dreamed of.

Overcome Life’s Obstacles and Find Strength in Adversity

We all face obstacles. Whether physical, spiritual, emotional, or financial, we are all working to overcome a roadblock ahead of us. When Shay Eskew’s roadblock—a splash of gasoline and a lit match that set his body ablaze—came at eight years old, he had the choice to either succumb to his injuries or to rise above them. In What the Fire Ignited: How Life’s Worst Helped Me Achieve My Best, Shay shares the trials and tribulations he was forced to face while recovering from his burns and reclaiming his life as an athlete. Despite being told to give up on sports, Shay was inducted into the National Wrestling Hall of Fame (Medal of Courage), ran a marathon on seven continents in seven days, and competed in over fifty IRONMAN triathlons on six continents. By sharing his story, Shay hopes to help those struggling to realize the greatest tragedies are often our greatest blessings if we have the faith to stay the course. We are all facing something; we all have the odds stacked against us in some way. In What the Fire Ignited, readers should take comfort in knowing others have been there and not only survived, but thrived.

Featuring tried-and-true advice from current and former college students, inspirational quotes, and beautiful watercolor illustrations, each page offers a little pick-me-up for college students dealing with stress and uncertainty—along with a reminder that they are never alone.

En Chasing The Impossible, Rachelle Rutherford, directora ejecutiva de Kids on the Move, desentraña la apasionante historia detrás del surgimiento de esta organización multimillonaria sin fines de lucro dedicada a ayudar a niños con retrasos en el desarrollo y discapacidades. Lo que comenzó como un esfuerzo sincero de dos madres decididas que buscaban apoyo para sus hijos con síndrome de Down se ha convertido en un faro de esperanza para las familias.

Sin embargo, en medio de estos desafíos, Rutherford revela el compromiso inquebrantable de Kids on the Move de construir puentes para solventar los vacíos que existen en la atención, combinando la implementación calculada de liderazgo y estrategias de crecimiento con una cultura de contribución y compasión. Desde programas de terapia innovadores hasta redes de apoyo integrales, ella revela las iniciativas innovadoras de la organización que han rediseñado el panorama de la atención de la discapacidad.

Pero el viaje está lejos de terminar. En Chasing The Impossible, Rutherford revela planes en el horizonte, una vez más traspasando los límites y revolucionando la definición de excelencia en la atención integral de la discapacidad. Además de emitir un conmovedor llamado a la acción e instar a las comunidades a apoyar a estas familias, el libro sirve no solo como testimonio de resiliencia sino también como un llamado de atención a la acción colectiva.

Con relatos desgarradores y visiones audaces para el futuro, Chasing The Impossible es más que un libro: es un clamor por el cambio, un plan para un futuro donde cada niño tenga la oportunidad de ser visto, conocido y amado.

So many people let life pass them by without going after the things that truly make them happy. Life, Unlimited is here to remind people of what’s possible and show them the way to the life of their dreams. 

In 2012, Tray Rush was struggling to make ends meet. He tried switching jobs, taking on second jobs, and pursuing countless failed “can’t miss” business opportunities, in an effort to turn things around. Nothing worked. Fearing his dream of becoming an entertainer and building a life of freedom as an entrepreneur would never happen, he tried something different. He quit job hopping and chasing after mindless side hustles, and began studying the best minds in human behavior, success, and self-help. Then, he turned what he learned into a series of simple steps he could take every day.

To his surprise, two things happened. First, his mindset changed, and he began to see the world differently. Next, his behavior changed, and he became more focused with his actions. And, sure enough, he began achieving more by doing less and his dream of becoming an entertainer started to bear fruit on YouTube. In just a few years, Tray amassed more than 10+ million social media followers, billions of views on YouTube, and a thriving business and real estate portfolio.

Tray’s transformation was achieved by a system that can be used by anyone to identify, pursue, and live Life, Unlimited. Researched and tested in the real world, it has been shared with those who noticed Tray’s progress and asked how he did it. Now, it’s available to everyone.

Unlocking Potential: Lessons from Sports Legends and an Unlikely CEO

What if the standards designed to measure success are the ones holding us back?

In Less than One Percent, Dr. Imamu Tomlinson takes readers on a journey through the paradoxes of success, challenging the conventions that govern how we assess true potential. Drawing from his personal story as an underestimated CEO candidate who rose to lead a multibillion-dollar organization, Tomlinson explores the hidden brilliance of those who don’t fit the mold.

Less than One Percent will inspire you to rethink everything you know about achievement:

• The myth of standards: Examine society’s obsession with metrics and predictability, and how benchmarks for success often leave extraordinary talent overlooked.
• Stories of disruption: Discover how a revolutionist challenged an empire to claim her freedom, why student outcomes aren’t always determined by resources, and how making skating history is a surefire way to avoid the podium.
• The paradox of potential: Learn why what we believe to be true is often at odds with the actual truth—and how embracing the unconventional can lead to greatness.

Through vivid examples, spanning world-class sprinting to tech startups, Tomlinson reveals how success is found outside the lines. Whether you’re a business leader who is ready to embrace innovation, a coach determined to nurture unrecognized talent, or someone who has repeatedly been underestimated, this book will provide the inspiration to defy expectations and risk achieving the unimaginable!

Why not let LOVE in?

Every day we see things that, at first glance, seem rather ordinary – a mother bird foraging for nest-building supplies, notice that a family pet is LOST stapled to a telephone pole, a little boy falling off his bike, a discarded bunch of flowers on a roadside trash pile, a father holding his almost-teenage age son’s hand, and a sidewalk hug.

But, several years ago, Don Blackwell realized that if we pay closer attention, open our eyes a little wider, and reawaken the sense of curiosity, awe, and wonder that accompanied our hearts when they came into this world, we can see beyond the “ordinariness”. 

We can see something extra. 

It turns out the “extra” is everywhere, hiding in plain sight, and it’s unspeakably beautiful. In these pages, you will see it too, learn, as Don has, from the insights the “extra” has to offer, and be inspired, as he has been, to continue the search for a lifetime. 

Self-Talk chronicles ten common stories people tell themselves that keep them stuck and provides specific actions they can take to change those stories.

The same lessons that helped her climb out of the pit of despair have helped thousands of others overcome their greatest roadblocks.

Self-Talk portrays the author’s personal experience with sabotaging stories of self-talk, as well as other real-life examples from her coaching clients. In addition to inspirational stories, this poignant guidebook is packed full of practical action steps to help people get unstuck and start moving forward in any area of their business or personal life.

Marianne’s unique Storyteller Framework—SEAR—breaks down the process of how stories are created so that anyone who feels held back by their thoughts can change the script inside their head and overcome almost any obstacle they may face.

Robert Lemon, co-author of Brown’s Books best-seller Multiple Streams of Inspiration, introduces inspiring principles and qualities each of us must develop before we reach our full potential. Whether you’re looking for success in business or pursuing a personal goal, this book presents a proven approach for turning your dreams into reality. rough many inspirational stories and his nine life-changing principles, Robert outlines the strategies that determine success in life. You will discover the greatness in you, access the knowledge and creativity of your mind, and embrace that gift and treasure in everything that you do.

A Treasured Gift from a Father to his Son

As a senior in high school, I received a special gift from my father.

As I was about to leave home for college, my father handed me an eleven-page handwritten letter that contained his best advice for his son. The letter contained quotes from Shakespeare, snippets from classic literature, and candid confessions about things that my dad wished he had done differently.

The letter was written by pen but might as well have been written in granite. I still have this letter in a drawer in my bedroom closet and I read parts of it about once a month. To this day, I treasure my father’s words of wisdom.

As we get older, we realize that there are many lessons that life gives us. These lessons in life are invaluable. But these lessons in life are not serving anyone unless we share them with our family, friends, and even strangers.

About three years ago, I began writing the most important lessons that I’ve learned in my life. The life lessons range from almost every aspect of life, including health and nutrition, financial management, faith, professional goal setting, and virtues such as perseverance, sacrifice, and gratitude.

Ninety-seven percent of these life lessons are based upon abject failures, repeated mistakes, and, in some cases, heartbreak, but our mistakes and failures make us who we are. And I wouldn’t have it any other way.

Win Today was inspired by my father, James H. Fisher, Esq., who knew better than anyone that the greatest lessons aren’t taught in a classroom.

Some say I am a lucky guy, because I figured it out before it was too late. I figured out what truly matters in life and I live my life by those principles. I almost missed out. I allowed myself to get caught up in life’s spin cycle. Too much work, allowing things that ultimately meant nothing to consume my life, being too busy to savor the simple things in life, thinking net worth was the true goal…well, not anymore. As I look around, what amazes me is that everybody wants the same things: We want to be happy, get out of the rat race, enjoy life, have fun, persevere through adversity, maximize joy, take risks, and be proud of who we are, what we have accomplished and the legacy we will leave. I know that because in my 30-year career as a sales executive, entrepreneur, public speaker, and faculty member at top companies and business schools, I have seen it with my own eyes. I have engaged with literally thousands of people of all ages, all over the world. They all want life worth. They want joy and contentment with their lives. They know they need it, they just don’t know how to get it. I do. I did it. I am a lucky guy because I figured it out at an age when I could apply it. It wasn’t too late. And it is also surprisingly simple, if you know the secrets.

The purpose of this book is to share with people of all ages the secrets to achieving a high life worth at any age. Life is too awesome to not be enjoyed every day in every way. It can be done. I know, because I am living it.

We all want the autonomy and power to change our lives for the better and yet many of us feel stuck in the same bad habits, patterns, and short-term fixes. We know what we should do, but often we cannot get ourselves to actually do it.

In Unstoppable Brain, Dr. Kyra Bobinet debunks today’s over-dependence on performance-driven tools such as calorie counting, SMART goals, and likes/followers that attempt to motivate us into behavior change. These methods work well in the short term but have a long-term downside of negative emotions and harmful behaviors. Yet despite these poor results, we keep using the same performative approaches over and over. Something is missing.

Emerging research into the neuroscience of behavior and motivation has brought to light to a little-understood area of the brain, the habenula; possibly the most powerful controller of behavior ever found. If left untended, the habenula acts as a failure detector and motivation kill switch that can rob you of positive or lasting change, leaving you stuck in relapse, frustration, and suffering.

Understanding the habenula’s inner workings is must-have knowledge to obtain the freedom and agency for the life you long for. New research reveals that the habenula is a primary gating mechanism for everything that does or doesn't happen in your life, what you do or do not do and. It is among our biggest obstacles to change.

In this book, you will learn that an activated habenula can dominate even the dopamine and reward systems that the scientific world for decades has esteemed the most powerful behavioral drivers. We will explore exactly what is wrong with today’s overly used performative approaches and how you can free yourself to reach your optimal health and best life. Dr. Bobinet unpacks mounting evidence on the habenula and other discoveries that change everything about changing behavior. With this new vision and understanding, your natural tendencies, purpose, and passions can emerge organically and inspire permanent, satisfying, and healthy life change.

Unstoppable Brain frees you from being too performative for others and being too hard on yourself. It provides all you need to restore your sovereignty and empowers you to change your life and habits whenever and however you want. It offers a therapeutic dose of three “medicines” that help you go from stuck to unstoppable. This potent elixir is an antidote to recovering your innate motivation wherever you’ve been stopped by the past or overwhelmed by the future. Most importantly, this book gives you the key to unlock lasting change.

Dr. Bobinet shares relatable examples from her own story and impactful research studies in resounding instruction for a full, vibrant life. Throughout the book, her engaging voice, relatable vulnerability, and empowering message infuse readers with the tools and reinvigorated power to unlock true, lasting change. Become unstoppable!

Are you so wrapped up in the day-to-day tasks of working hard that you've never stopped to figure out where you want to go? Maybe you have goals for yourself, your family, your career, your business and employees, but you face challenges in realizing your dreams. Maybe you worked hard and had achieved success, but today's economy knocked you down. Can you name all fifty states or even all Ten Commandments? How can you remember 282 success principles for business or for life in general? And why should you when there are really only three simple, yet difficult rules for success? If you'd like to get started, or need to start over, on creating the life you truly want, you can do it. With profound and profoundly simple concepts, this book will point you in the right direction and provide you with a roadmap to your destination.

You must see the end first! • If we are too fearful of failure, we can go overboard on the work aspect of becoming successful. We can become workaholics or "successaholics." To be truly successful requires balance. We need to play, not just work. We need to build up those around us and not just our own personal success. • What is important in your life? In your heart? What gives you joy, when do you feel maximized, alive and energized? Take an inventory of what you spend your time doing. There you will either find your passion or you will find what holds you back. Are you living a life of quiet desperation, or are you marching toward those things you hold dear? • Sometimes you have to cut off the avenues of retreat to keep your attitude where it needs to be in that moment.

Overcome Life’s Obstacles and Find Strength in Adversity

We all face obstacles. Whether physical, spiritual, emotional, or financial, we are all working to overcome a roadblock ahead of us. When Shay Eskew’s roadblock—a splash of gasoline and a lit match that set his body ablaze—came at eight years old, he had the choice to either succumb to his injuries or to rise above them. In What the Fire Ignited: How Life’s Worst Helped Me Achieve My Best, Shay shares the trials and tribulations he was forced to face while recovering from his burns and reclaiming his life as an athlete. Despite being told to give up on sports, Shay was inducted into the National Wrestling Hall of Fame (Medal of Courage), ran a marathon on seven continents in seven days, and competed in over fifty IRONMAN triathlons on six continents. By sharing his story, Shay hopes to help those struggling to realize the greatest tragedies are often our greatest blessings if we have the faith to stay the course. We are all facing something; we all have the odds stacked against us in some way. In What the Fire Ignited, readers should take comfort in knowing others have been there and not only survived, but thrived.

Practical and Spiritual Principles for Better Life Teams We are inevitably on various Life Teams throughout our lives—family, school, business, church and community, to name the most basic. Whether we are the de facto team leader or a role player, each of us would like our Life Teams to be winning ones. The Four-Step System, described as a metaphor based on four wheels, is intended for all who desire to improve their Influence Quotient, which is a specific kind of intelligence: the ability to influence our teams for a positive outcome. This approach is different from the usual leadership mandates set out in so many books. We cannot all be leaders all the time, which would negate the concept of a team. But we do need to be good influences on others. The emphasis should be on acknowledging the value of every teammate’s role while helping them prepare for times when they will need to step to the front to influence an outcome. Mastering the elements in the wheels of the Four Step System provides momentum and enables you to be On Point; regardless of what role you play. The end game is to improve the performance of our Life-Teams by cultivating meaningful relationships, which are far more rewarding than rings or trophies!

Both field guide and workbook, Brave Leaders satisfies curiosity about how “guts” factor into brave action and argues that even this element of bravery can be nurtured.
The interviews collected here show what bravery looks like in the real world as practiced by people of varying ages and in a variety of fields and circumstances. Together, they make clear that anyone can become an agent of meaningful change for the greater good, whether by engaging in everyday office heroism or by taking a stand in the face of life-threatening circumstances. What one needs is good models, keen insight, and old-fashioned effort and practice. Brave Leaders shows readers how to discover in their own lives opportunities for courageous action and prepares them to take advantage of those opportunities to become a force for good in the world.

This is not a book just about flying a single engine airplane around the
world.This is the book about identifying the "Big Hairy Audacious
Goal" in our lives and finding a way to accomplish it through focus and
discipline.The author accomplished three dreams: the dream of coming to the
U.S. and getting an MBA degree (when he hardly spoke any English); the dream
of starting a company and becoming a self-made millionaire (when he had no
money, no business plan, no investors, no social network, and no experience);
the dream of becoming the first Chinese citizen to fly a single-engine
airplane around the world (when he had barely 200 hours of flying time and
two years of flying experiences). By sharing these stories, the author
challenges everyone to think about one question: "What would you attempt
to do if you knew you couldn't fail?"

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

Following the success of his #1 New York Times bestseller Make Your Bed, which has sold over one million copies, Admiral William H. McRaven is back with amazing stories of bravery and heroism during his career as a Navy SEAL and commander of America's Special Operations Forces.
