If we do what is right, everything else will follow: happiness, success, meaning, reputation, love. This is central to Stoic wisdom. The path isn't always easy, but it is essential, and the alternative - taking the easy route - leads only to cowardice and folly.

In the third book in his bestselling Stoic Virtues series, Ryan Holiday explores the crucial role that integrity plays in every good life. From pillars of upright living like Ulysses S. Grant and Marcus Aurelius, to the cautionary tales of Napoleon and F. Scott Fitzgerald, this book shows us the power of owning our convictions and acting in accordance with our beliefs - and the perils of an ill-formed conscience.

Our conscience, our sense of justice, is our first and our last strength: we can train it, hone it and fortify it, but above all, we must never lose it. This book shows us how.

ARE YOU READY TO FALL IN LOVE WITH YOUR LIFE?

WOMEN LIVING DELICIOUSLY IS THE FOLLOW-UP TO THE RECORD-BREAKING, BESTSELLING WOMEN DON'T OWE YOU PRETTY BY FLORENCE GIVEN WHICH HAS SOLD OVER 750,000 COPIES WORLDWIDE

The book will help women uncover their sense of awe and wonder that has been buried by the layers of shame and self-objectification that get piled on us by the patriarchy.

For too long we have internalised the belief that our bodies are things to be looked at - instead of lived in.
That it's embarrassing to fully express ourselves.
That we cannot trust our desire.

This book unpacks the many barriers women face when trying to access joy so that they can discover the delicious life that's theirs for the taking.

International-bestselling author Florence Given wants to restore your lust for life and your sense of agency, giving you the courage and permission to inch closer to the wildly expansive life that you FULLY deserve - not in the future, not when you're perfect, not when you're prettier - but right now!

At a young age I discovered that there was more to myself and life beyond the facade that we could see. Since then I’ve been journeying both outward and inward uncovering insights that could help us better our lives and life itself.

In this book I share these insights in the most simplistic form to assist the reader with overcoming challenges, finding their true selves and awaken to their true purpose for being alive. These guidelines herein allow people to awaken in many ways, including spiritually.

Awakening doesn’t always include euphoric enlightenment, but could simply be learning something about ourselves and life that we didn’t know or see before. This book serves as a simple guide to awaken to truths that could assist the reader with living an amazing life and connecting deeply with themselves and the world.

A practical guide to managing your attention–the most powerful resource you have to get stuff done, become more creative, and live a meaningful life

Our attention has never been as overwhelmed as it is today. Many of us recognize that our brains struggle to multitask. Despite this, we feel compelled to do so anyway while we fill each moment of our lives to the brim with mindless distraction. Hyperfocus provides profound insights into how you can best take charge of your attention to achieve a greater sense of purpose and productivity throughout the day.

The most recent neuroscientific research reveals that our brain has two powerful modes that can be unlocked when we use our attention effectively: a focused mode (hyperfocus), which is the foundation for being highly productive, and a creative mode (scatterfocus), which enables us to connect ideas in novel ways. Hyperfocus helps you access each of the two mental modes so you can concentrate more deeply, think more clearly, and work and live more deliberately every day.

Chris Bailey examines such topics such as:

• identifying and dealing with the four key types of distraction and interruption;
• establishing a clear physical and mental environment in which to work;
• controlling motivation and working fewer hours to become more productive;
• taking time-outs with intention;
• multitasking strategically; and
• learning when to pay attention and when to let your mind wander wherever it wants to.

By transforming how you think about your attention, Hyperfocus reveals that the more effectively you learn to take charge of it, the better you’ll be able to manage every aspect of your life.

From the founder of Scare Your Soul, this self-help guide will help you find the courage to embrace all of life's uncertainties so that you can live a more elaborate life of your dreams.

Like a muscle, courage grows stronger the more you exercise it. Scare Your Soul will not only teach you how to exercise courage–it will guide you in taking small, boundary-pushing actions to expand your comfort zone.

Combining research on positive psychology with real-life stories, international thought leader and happiness entrepreneur Scott Simon challenges you to confront your limiting beliefs. With writing prompts and activities, Scare Your Soul is an interactive roadmap to building bravery.

If you crave an extraordinary life but feel like you don’t know how to take “extra” ordinary action, this book is for you.

It’s time to Scare Your Soul.

A bold new vision for optimizing our health now and in the future.

What if depression, anxiety, infertility, insomnia, heart disease, erectile dysfunction, type 2 diabetes, Alzheimer’s, dementia, cancer and many other health conditions that torture and shorten our lives actually have the same root cause?

Our ability to prevent and reverse these conditions - and feel incredible today - is under our control and simpler than we think. The key is our metabolic function - the most important and least understood factor in our overall health. As Dr. Casey Means explains in this groundbreaking book, nearly every health problem we face can be explained by how well the cells in our body create and use energy. To live free from frustrating symptoms and life-threatening disease, we need our cells to be optimally powered so that they can create “good energy,” the essential fuel that impacts every aspect of our physical and mental wellbeing.

If you are battling minor signals of “bad energy” inside your body, it is often a warning sign that more life-threatening illness may emerge later in life. But here’s the good news: for the first time ever, we can monitor our metabolic health in great detail and learn how to improve it ourselves.

Weaving together cutting-edge research and personal stories, as well as groundbreaking data from the health technology company Dr. Means founded, Good Energy offers an essential four-week plan and explains:

• The five biomarkers that determine your risk for a deadly disease.
• How to use inexpensive tools and technology to “see inside your body” and take action.
• Why dietary philosophies are designed to confuse us, and six lifelong food principles you can implement whether you’re carnivore or vegan.
• The crucial links between sleep, circadian rhythm, and metabolism
• A new framework for exercise focused on building simple movement into everyday activities
• How cold and heat exposure helps build our body’s resilience
• Steps to navigate the medical system to get what you need for optimal health

Good Energy offers a new, cutting-edge understanding of the true cause of illness that until now has remained hidden. It will help you optimize your ability to live well and stay well at every age.

How does your brain decide what it’s seeing, from the physical world to other people? For decades, scientists have tried to understand how our brains work, not realising that the answer lies much closer to home than it seems.

The latest research in neuroscience and psychology suggests that the brain is doing the same thing that the scientists are: using past experiences to build theories of how the world works, and using these models to predict and make sense of it. Through this process, your brain constructs the reality that you live in.

In this book Daniel Yon takes the research one step further, uncovering how your brain colours your perception of the world, the judgements you make about other people and the beliefs you form about yourself. With transformative applications for how we engage with other communities and approach mental illness, A Trick of The Mind will revolutionise the way you think.

Meet the imaginary beings that hold the keys to the wisdom hidden in your subconscious: the Wizard of Awareness, the Gentle Gardener, the Bone Collector, and the Spirits of the psychological terrain you traverse, who know where to find the treasure in each experience. Discover how to tame the mischievous trickster Goblin, who locks you into old habits. Each of these aspects of your psyche has lessons for you, and each responds to your directions, for you are in charge of your own map.

A great deal of ink has been spilled on the subject of motivating and influencing others, but what happens when the person you most want to influence is you? Setting and achieving goals for yourself – at work, at home, and in relationships – is harder than it seems. How do you know where to start? How do you carry on in the face of roadblocks and distractions? How do you decide which tasks and ambitions to prioritize when you’re faced with more responsibilities, needs and desires than you can keep track of?

In Get it Done, psychologist and behavioural scientist Ayelet Fishbach presents a new theoretical framework for self-motivated action, explaining how to identify the right goals, attack the ‘middle problem’, battle temptations, use the help of others around you and so much more.

With fascinating research from the field of motivation science and compelling stories of people who learned to motivate themselves, Get it Done illuminates invaluable strategies for pulling yourself in whatever direction you want to go – so you can achieve your goals while staying healthy, clearheaded and happy.

This is the original Make a Difference that started the EAGLE Leadership Series and has lead to the expansion of Dr. Little's executive coaching work spreading to a national and an international audience. As an authority on personality and leadership development, Dr. Little asserts that the greatest myth about relationships is that they "just happen." The truth is that all relationships are intentional, and all relationships take work and investment. If you are not intentionally investing in your relationships, they will gradually become unhealthy, and eventually the relationship will end.

He reminds us that relationships are either growing or dying, and these growths or deaths can be positive or negative, but here's the good news: you get to choose the relationships in which you're going to invest You get to choose which relationships you want to survive. With the right tools, you can make significant improvements in the relationships that are the most important to you. This is the power of the Make a Difference model. It gives you the tools to improve relationships with those you love, live with and lead.

"Dr. Little provides a powerful resource for anyone who values relationships of any kind. Professionally, it is a must for business leaders who care about their people. Personally, it is very simply a life changer." -David King, Retired Director of Marshall Space Flight Center, NASA and current Vice President, Dynetics.

"I highly recommend this book to leaders and anyone else who values people. Make a Difference will teach you how to be successful in the most important area of your life... relationships." -Zake Smith, Executive Vice President of External Affairs, Alabama Power

"The practical ideas shared by Dr. Little is this book will help you understand the personality DNA od those around you. You will learn how to successfully build strong teams at work and make a difference in the relationships in every area of your life." - Ellen Didier, President of Red Sage Communications, Inc

What makes a winner? Why do some succeed both in life and in business, and others fail? The 'winner effect' is a term used in biology to describe how an animal that has won a few fights against weak opponents is much more likely to win later bouts against stronger contenders. As Ian Robertson reveals, it applies to humans, too. Success changes the chemistry of the brain, making you more focused, smarter, more confident and more aggressive. And the more you win, the more you will go on to win. But the downside is that winning can become physically addictive. By understanding what the mental and physical changes are that take place in the brain of a 'winner', how they happen, and why they affect some people more than others, Robertson explains what makes a winner or a loser - and how we can use the answers to these questions to understand better the behaviour of our business colleagues, employees, family and friends.

A book for all ages, a book for all times, treasured by millions.

Charlie Mackesy’s The Boy, the Mole, the Fox and the Horse was adapted into the BAFTA and Academy Award® winning animated short film.

“What do you want to be when you grow up?” asked the mole.
“Kind,” said the boy.

In this beautiful book, follow the tale of a curious boy, a greedy mole, a wary fox and a wise horse who find themselves together in sometimes difficult terrain, sharing their greatest fears and biggest discoveries about vulnerability, kindness, hope, friendship and love.

Sisters Isabelle and Laura Hof have been practis­ing and teaching the Wim Hof Method for most of their lives. Science-backed and potentially life-changing, the method focuses on three pillars – breathing, cold therapy and mindset – which can result in increased energy, better sleep, a strength­ened immune system and more. While the method works for everyone, it has unique physical and men­tal health benefits for women.

Inspired by the potential of the method, Isa­belle and Laura started the Icewomen community, devoted to unlocking the power of these practices. In this empowering book they invite all women to join the community, and share the groundbreaking research behind the benefits, from improving mental health, boosting confidence and balancing hormones to enhancing hair and skin health and having a positive impact on pregnancy, breastfeeding, meno­pause and more. Secrets of the Icewomen also offers detailed advice specifically tailored for women and their needs, including how to:

• plan your WHM practice around your cycle
• work on setting strong intentions
• adjust and rest if dealing with serious condi­tions or hormonal imbalances, and
• learn to understand the (very normal!) range of emotions people have when undergoing cold therapy.

From the #1 New York Times bestselling author Dan Heath comes a revolutionary guide to fixing what’s not working – in work and in our daily lives.

Reset will help you get unstuck, shake off old habits, and overcome the inertia of the way things always work. Heath shares a framework, based on research in psychology and hundreds of interviews, to help you vault toward what really matters.

Crucially, you can make positive changes without the need for additional time or money (which, for most of us, is not forthcoming). The secret is to find leverage points: places where a little bit of effort can yield a disproportionate return.

In Reset, you’ll discover:

• Why the middle of a change effort is often the hardest
• How leaders can uncover and stop wasteful activities
• Why your team’s motivation is often squandered (and how to avoid that mistake)
• The paradox that inefficiency can sometimes accelerate progress

The book traces not only how people transform their work but how they decide what to work toward. Their aspirations couldn’t be more different. You’ll visit fast-food managers who’ve crafted a freakishly effective drive-thru line. You’ll meet a couples therapist who swears by a powerful, perception-shaping trick. And you’ll encounter a veterinarian who hatched a plan that ultimately saved the lives of five million cats.

Their aspirations differ, but their resolve is the same: to escape the stifling gravity of entrenched systems. To unlock forward momentum – making steady progress toward our highest goals – without the need for more resources. The same people, the same assets, but dramatically better results.

Yesterday, we were stuck. Today, we reset.

When I Grow Up is the story of a young man who has always been told what to do, what the right thing to do is and when to do it, only to realise that he was being prepared for a path of mediocrity. In this book, Darius takes the reader through parts of his life journey, drawing on lessons from peers, entrepreneurs and people who have gone through some life challenges. He presents different perspectives and insights to enable the reader to explore ways to reshape their reality, and not wait until they have grown up to live the life they want. He presents an inspiring collection of life experiences, some adventures that young people go through in the process of self-discovery. Tabane also presents random acts of kindness and how these can feed the soul to fuel communities driven by kindness. Self-worth and self-belief is a consistent theme in the book. As a growing young man, he explores the power of parenting and how that influences a child's upbringing and their early-adult and adult life; and how it shapes the ideas of young people. The book also explores some highly contested issues such as life and death, faith, charity, accountability, and the choices we make, quick fixes and the influences that shape our destinies. Tabane says an important message presented in the book is that, in our journey of growth, money and/ or status should not be the priority but challenging ourselves to become the best person we can be should be what drives us, because this will subsequently enable us to generate the money, and / or the status. He argues that the way we think and feel about ourselves and our lives will either stifle our growth or challenge us to become better and push us to continue to grow. There are mindsets we must outgrow, and mediocrity is one of them, accepting that what has been presented as a norm is what is normal, when in fact, much more lies ahead. When we realise this, only then can we begin to truly reach our full potential.

We’re living in a time of amazing technological innovation, but we’re not paying enough attention to one of the most important innovations of all – one that’s going to be a wellspring of progress for a long time to come.

This innovation is to the company itself – a new model is being pioneered by geeks who have instituted a radical new mindset that has shifted the paradigm entirely on what a business can – and should – be.

They do not follow the rules of the Industrial era, with their hierarchies and bureaucratic ways of thinking. They do not follow the principles preached in business schools since the dawn of time. They have all dedicated themselves to approaching business as a geek would – through trial and error, egalitarianism, evidence and stress-testing ideas in a group setting rather than relying on the boss’s instincts. McAfee's groundbreaking exploration of this emerging phenomenon gets to the heart of the tectonic shifts taking place all over the business world.

The future will be ‘geek’. By investigating contemporary research in psychology, economics and behavioural sciences, as well as first-hand accounts from the ‘geek’ leaders of today, McAfee shows us how this new age will transform everything we think we know about how business is done, now and into the future.

The intricacy of modern life has created a false dichotomy between things that are 'hard and important,' and those that are 'easy and trivial.' Everything has become so much harder than it ought to be. But, Greg McKeown, bestselling author of Essentialism, says, there is a third alternative.

In Effortless, he offers practical tools for making the most essential activities the easiest ones, so you can achieve the results you want, without burning out. Honed over the better part of a decade, these strategies include:

·Turning tedious tasks into enjoyable rituals
·Preventing frustration by solving problems before they arise
·Setting a sustainable pace instead of powering through
·Making one-time choices that eliminate many future decisions
·Making relationships easier to maintain and manage
·And much more

McKeown's philosophy of essentialism has helped thousands to recognise that the effortless way isn't the lazy way. It's the smart way. Not every hard thing in life can be made easy but we can make it easier to do more of what matters most. Effortless will show you how.
