For David Goggins, childhood was a nightmare - poverty, prejudice, and physical abuse colored his days and haunted his nights. But through self-discipline, mental toughness, and hard work, Goggins transformed himself from a depressed, overweight young man with no future into a U.S. Armed Forces icon and one of the world's top endurance athletes.
The only man in history to complete elite training as a Navy SEAL, Army Ranger, and Air Force Tactical Air Controller, he went on to set records in numerous endurance events, inspiring Outside magazine to name him The Fittest (Real) Man in America.
In Can't Hurt Me, he shares his astonishing life story and reveals that most of us tap into only 40% of our capabilities. Goggins calls this The 40% Rule, and his story illuminates a path that anyone can follow to push past pain, demolish fear, and reach their full potential.

Jy wil asem skep en die mooi dinge raaksien. Maar soms raak die lewe
dol en jy erg gestres. Bewustelikheid (mindfulness) en meditasie kan
mens help om met nuwe oë na die wêreld te kyk.
Johannes de Villiers vertel die stories van gewone mense wat geleer het
hoe om beter interpersoonlike verhoudings te hê, 'n positiewe bydrae
tot die wêreld te maak, hul woede en stres beter te bestuur en die
wonderskone in elke oomblik - ook die moeilikes - raak te sien. Dit kan
ook jou storie wees.
Channel the power and use the magic of more than 50 Celtic
goddesses. The Celtic goddesses and druids were legendary beings.
Now these heavenly spirits have personal relationships with us in
everything we do. All females are divinely attuned to goddesses
from birth for guidance and protection through life until death.
Working by divine plan, goddesses imbue us with their ancient
wisdom, which becomes our own, helping us to avoid pitfalls and
reach our full potential. Celtic Goddesses and Their
Spells features 52 of these inspiring deities, all
beautifully illustrated. Gillian Kemp gives a description of each
goddess and her main powers, followed by a spell associated with
that goddess. For example, Cerridwen is the goddess of truth and
she encourages you to be your most authentic self, while Awen,
goddess of inspiration, helps you find the answers you need.
What would it mean to become supernatural? Access the knowledge and
tools you need to step outside physical reality and reach
extraordinary states of being. What if you could tune in to
frequencies beyond our material world... change your brain
chemistry to access transcendent levels of awareness... create a
new future... and transform your very biology to enable profound
healing? This is what Dr. Joe Dispenza offers in this revolutionary
book: a body of knowledge and a set of tools that allow ordinary
people-people just like you-to reach extraordinary states of being.
Dr. Joe, author of the New York Times bestseller You Are the
Placebo as well as Breaking the Habit of Being Yourself and Evolve
Your Brain, draws on up-to-the-minute research in neuroscience,
epigenetics, and quantum physics to show how this kind of
transformation takes place and what it can mean for our lives. In
these pages, you'll explore: - How to free yourself from the past
by reconditioning your body to a new mind - How changing your
frequency allows you to create reality in the "generous present
moment" - The secret science of the pineal gland and its role in
accessing mystical realms of reality - How to shift your awareness
beyond the limited, predictable material world and move into the
quantum field of infinite possibilities - And much more Using tools
and practices ranging from state-of-the-art brain imaging to
exercises such as a walking meditation, Dr. Joe offers nothing less
than a program for stepping outside our physical reality and into a
new world. "This is who we really are," he writes, "and this is the
future I'm creating-one in which each and every one of us becomes
supernatural."
This book by the author of Why Am I Afraid to Love? contains
insights on self-awareness, personal growth and communication with
others. Why do people continually hide their real selves from the
people around them? Why are so many so insecure and afraid to open
up? The answer, explains John Powell, is that maturity is reached
by communicating and interacting with others. This book considers
the consequences our real self faces if no one else ever finds out
what we are like. In this enduring classic, the companion to Why Am
I Afraid to Love?, John Powell explains how to be more emotionally
open, and shows how people adopt roles and play psychological games
to protect their inner selves. The courage to be our real selves
can be developed, and then we can begin to grow. Now newly designed
for a fresh audience, Why Am I Afraid to Tell You Who I Am? is as
relevant as it has been for twenty years. With a proven track
record, it continues to speak to the needs and aspirations of
people today. It is best included in self help sections of general
bookshops, but also has a religious appeal.
Inspired by thousands of years of Chinese thought, an enchanting and
heart-opening illustrated fable about a young boy who explores the many
ways to make meaning and find joy in the everyday.
Sometimes you can only do a small, small thing. And that can make all
the difference.
In this exquisitely illustrated parable grounded in the three pillars
of Chinese philosophy, a young boy, his family ox, and a rabbit living
in his garden help each other navigate the daily work of love,
compassion, and community. Examining the world through the lenses of
Taoism, Buddhism, and Confucianism, their conversations convey tender,
uplifting messages for life's various crossroads.
As they adopt a sparrow, bathe in rivers, comfort their neighbors, and
tend to their chores, the characters' different perspectives are
reflected in their conversations: the boy's Taoist love of nature and
all it entails, the ox's Buddhist compassion for others, and the
rabbit's Confucian practice of mutual respect and care. While they
don't always agree, the friends settle on the basic truth that purpose
comes from simply engaging with life--and with each other.
Painted in a contemporary gongbi style, one of the oldest continuous
art forms in the world, the atmospheric illustrations from Taiwanese
American artist Regina Linke conjure a timeless, mystical land where
the friends have made their home. The potent combination of magnificent
art and gentle revelations will capture the hearts of readers, whatever
their age.
Readers of all ages and walks of life have drawn inspiration from
Elizabeth Gilbert's books for years. Now, this beloved author
shares her wisdom and unique understanding of creativity,
shattering the perceptions of mystery and suffering that surround
the process - and showing us all just how easy it can be. By
sharing stories from her own life, as well as those from her
friends and the people that have inspired her, Elizabeth Gilbert
challenges us to embrace our curiosity, tackle what we most love
and face down what we most fear. Whether you long to write a book,
create art, cope with challenges at work, embark on a long-held
dream, or simply to make your everyday life more vivid and
rewarding, Big Magic will take you on a journey of exploration
filled with wonder and unexpected joys.

Collaboration The Mind's Eye is a collaboration between the
artist's emotional response to the poems and the immediacy of the
poet's reaction to nature and personal encounters. The Poet Gail
Gowers Cotton is a member of the Poetry Society and the British
Haiku Society. Her poems have appeared in the Societies' journals
as well as in other specialist magazines. She "scatters" her work
by leaving poems on buses, in cafes and tucked into library books.
The Mind's Eye is her second book. Her inspiration comes from
nature and personal encounters including memories of Ireland,
Africa, North Wales and visits to Sydenham Hill Woods, Dulwich
Picture Gallery and the Horniman Museum in South London, where she
now lives. The Artist Pat Keay graduated as a painter at the
Edinburgh College of Art in 1971. She has worked as an artist and
designer in Scotland, Kenya and London and now lives in Worthing.
Read more on www.patkeay.com. The illustrations come from Pat's
spontaneous reaction to the essence, rather than the detail, of a
particular Haiku.
