A teacher recently wrote this about the assembly show: "I have been teaching for 15 years and can honestly say that after watching his show I became more motivated and instantly incorporated some of his techniques into my everyday teaching. Students have responded in a positive manner and have changed the way they are going about remembering facts. I have seen an improvement in their ability to retain information on a daily basis." (Jon S, Setauket, New York) Brad Zupp is a professional speaker, entertainer and memory coach. His interest in memory improvement dates back to his childhood, trying to find better ways to remember information in school. In his 20s, Brad became fascinated with techniques that would allow an ordinary person to memorize a shuffled deck of playing cards, long numbers, or even an entire magazine. He learned the techniques and applied them to learning to speak a foreign language. Several years later, he threw himself into learning more about the mind and memory, and soon after started attending memory competitions all over the world. He has won several bronze medals in the USA Memory Championship. In 2012 Brad competed in the World Memory Championship in London, memorizing nine decks of shuffled playing cards perfectly in one hour. Brad continues to improve his memory daily, memorizing decks of playing cards, numbers, names and faces, poetry, and more, but is most passionate about helping others learn how to remember better. He speaks frequently on the subject of memory improvement for students in grades 3 through 8, as well as for senior citizens, baby boomers, salespeople and executives.
"As you journey through these pages, if you have ever struggled with addiction in any capacity either as an addict or through a relationship, you will know that the author has walked in your shoes. This is a sincerely personal and honest sharing of the addict's world with the reader's journey consistently benefiting from scriptural support." -Tom Caldwell, PhD "This is one of the most valuable books written on recovery. It was not birthed in a clinic by a team of doctors. This is a compilation straight from the heart of a former addict who has experienced the personal struggles of the fight to freedom. After reading this book, every addict and those close to an addict can know that victory is possible. As a personal devotional or as a guideline for group study, this book will help you secure hope for a bright and better future." -Robert, a former addict loved by Jesus "Is this book only useful to addicts? I definitely doubt that. We all fall short of the glory of God. We need to be humble and repentant. To different degrees and in different ways, we all struggle. This is good reading for everyone." -Franz Eitel, PhD
When many people think of mental performance they simply focus on the level of intelligence that an individual can have. Little or no focus is placed on how the brain can be kept working at optimum capacity.

At this point, it is imperative to be able to see the bigger picture of your life, to understand that you deserve and have the power to create the world around you as you want it to be and that guidance is available to all of us every step of the way. All we have to do is learn how to listen. On this journey of self-exploration, you will learn to understand what barriers keep you from overcoming your deepest fears, how to use your emotions as a guide in making choices, and finally understand why you make the choices you do in your life. Choosing the Life You Were Born to Live gives away the secret to believing in yourself, how to make choices that will honor your highest path in life and why life shows up the way it does.

As a man thinks within himself, so he is. Have you ever wondered why some people do phenomenally well and others seem to merely exist? Why do some pilot their lives with great resilience, while others are derailed by suicide or other debilitating thoughts or behaviors? Success is not based on the things you do; it is based on your state of being. The higher your emotional intelligence is, the higher your success rate will be. Self-mastery is about learning how to pilot your life with such accuracy that you will no longer zigzag through life, but lead a course that will guide you straight to destiny.

2013 Reprint of 1919 Edition. Full facsimile of the original edition, not reproduced with Optical Recognition Software. Although similar in title, theme and structure to his book Creative Mind, this is a completely different book. Creative Mind has more of a focus on Mental Healing. This book is principally about what is today called in New Age circles Prosperity Consciousness. Holmes discusses how to focus one's thoughts to create monetary wealth, as well as increase one's personal charisma to garner circles of friends. This little classic of New Thought is very similar to its successor, Think and Grow Rich, optimistic, self-empowering, and confident in its outlook.

The Sword of the Spirit demonstrates a very easy method for memorizing scripture while enabling a deeper understanding of His Word. It will change you. You will establish a secure and solid foundation in Christ. You will become spiritually stronger as you face different challenges throughout life in your walk with the Lord. You will be set free from long-term sin, habits, and attitudes that have weighed you down and affected your overall Christian experience. You will develop a new way of thinking and discover that old ways are becoming a thing of the past. You will experience victory rather than defeat. You will move on to maturity more easily. A twenty-five-year-old has reached adulthood, but he is not as mature as the fifty-year-old. That twenty-five-year-old should not be thinking or acting like a child that is five, ten, or fifteen years old. Nothing of those ages should influence his maturity level, or he will have difficulty making it in life-and he will know stress very well. The same applies to us as Christians if we are not actively forsaking old ways and developing new ways. Your arsenal for Christian maturity includes forgiveness, prayer, faith, resisting temptation, peace, enduring trials, renewing the mind, going forward, putting sin aside, and allowing God to live through you-just to name a few. They are the very essential basics. The scriptures chosen for memory will set you free from unnecessary burdens of self that hinder your moving forward in victory. As you memorize and meditate on these scriptures, you will be set free from emotional baggage that guide your feelings, thoughts, reactions and decisions. You are renewing your mind and you are being transformed. It is what takes place in you by the working of the Holy Spirit, God Himself, as you memorize His Word-a genuine "new you"

Whether you are a student or a working professional, you can benefit from being better at solving the complex problems that come up in your life. Strategic Thinking in Complex Problem Solving provides a general framework and the necessary tools to help you do so. Based on his groundbreaking course at Rice University, engineer and former strategy consultant Arnaud Chevallier provides practical ways to develop problem solving skills, such as investigating complex questions with issue maps, using logic to promote creativity, leveraging analogical thinking to approach unfamiliar problems, and managing diverse groups to foster innovation. This book breaks down the resolution process into four steps: 1) frame the problem (identifying what needs to be done), 2) diagnose it (identifying why there is a problem, or why it hasn't been solved yet), 3) identify and select potential solutions (identifying how to solve the problem), and 4) implement and monitor the solution (resolving the problem, the 'do'). For each of these four steps - the what, why, how, and do - this book explains techniques that promotes success and demonstrates how to apply them on a case study and in additional examples. The featured case study guides you through the resolution process, illustrates how these concepts apply, and creates a concrete image to facilitate recollection. Strategic Thinking in Complex Problem Solving is a tool kit that integrates knowledge based on both theoretical and empirical evidence from many disciplines, and explains it in accessible terms. As the book guides you through the various stages of solving complex problems, it also provides useful templates so that you can easily apply these approaches to your own personal projects. With this book, you don't just learn about problem solving, but how to actually do it.
