From bestselling author Robert Greene comes a brilliant
distillation of the strategies of war that can help us gain mastery
in the modern world. Spanning world civilisations, and synthesising
dozens of political, philosophical, and religious texts, The 33
Strategies of War is a comprehensive guide to the subtle social
game of everyday life. Based on profound, timeless lessons, it is
abundantly illustrated with examples of the genius and folly of
everyone from Napoleon to Margaret Thatcher and Hannibal to Ulysses
S. Grant, as well as diplomats, captains of industry and Samurai
swordsmen.
This is a book about self-sabatoge. 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.
From the age of seven, Pat Williams's greatest passion was
baseball. However, after two years in the minors, he had to admit
it was not his greatest talent. But when he combined his passion
for sports with his greatest talents--leadership, salesmanship, and
promotion--he found his sweet spot for success. What followed was a
phenomenally successful career and a lasting impact on the world.
Through engaging stories and inspiring examples of those who have
found their sweet spot for success, Williams shows readers how to
identify their greatest talent, pursue their greatest passion, and
multiply their efforts through teamwork. They'll discover how to
maximize their natural gifting, focus their enthusiasm, and
leverage their talent and passion into a lifetime of success.
Perfect for graduates going off to college or work, or anyone who
is still looking for a career that satisfies their soul.

In a time when women carry more influence than any other generation, the power of prayer has never been more important to remind us that we do not have to bear our crosses alone. We need prayer to stand guard over our hearts and minds and over the hearts and minds of our families.
