Being rich is not normal: most people never achieve wealth in their lifetime. The very word ‘rich’ describes a state beyond the median, and therein lies an important lesson.
To become rich, your thinking has to be radically different from that of the people around you. Do you know what those specific differences may be?
Business and wealth guru Douglas Kruger strips away the feel-good hype and gets right down to the practical principles. He leads you through the types of thinking that hold individuals, families and businesses in generational cycles of poverty. He explores the dramatically different approaches of the self-made rich and super-rich, showing you which behaviours to begin practising and which behaviours are traitorous to your wealth potential.
Escape poverty. Raise your value. Change the trajectory of your story.
It all begins with the way you think.
So lyk ’n vrou, Ilse Verster se hartroerende verhaal oor Esli se lewe
van mishandeling deur ’n gewelddadige eggenoot, het lesers in 2022
geskok en aangegryp. ’n Vrou staan op is die vervolg op die
blitsverkoper en vertel van die nuwe hoofstuk in Esli se lewe.
Ná ’n uitmergelende egskeiding wat haar finansieel byna ruïneer, reis
Esli Kaap toe om perspektief te kry op ’n lewe waar sy nie meer ’n
slagoffer is nie. Dan gebeur daar ’n wonderwerk. Sy ontmoet iemand en
hulle besluit om te trou. Uiteindelik is die geluk, vrede en veiligheid
waarna sy haar lewe lank gehunker het, vir Esli beskore.
Máár haar stryd is nog lank nie verby nie. Post-traumatiese stres, ’n
vreemde omgewing en nuwe verhoudings bring onverwagse uitdagings. Ook
baie vrae, soos: Hoe kan ’n mens gelukkig wees, maar steeds huil? Die
ongekende blootstelling wat tydens boekbekendstellings, praatjies en
mediaonderhoude volg op die sukses van So lyk ’n vrou, maak dinge ook
nie makliker nie. Esli kan haar nie volledig losmaak van die verlede
nie, want almal stel moeilike vrae. Terselfdertyd moet sy ander
slagoffers van narsisme moed inpraat.
In ’n Vrou staan op deel die skrywer haar ervarings van die moets en
moenies in die proses na heelwording. Want om ’n oorwinnaar te wees,
verg ook moed, deursettingsvermoë en ’n sekure instink vir oplossings
wat wérk.

If this book saves just one person’s life, Leo Prinsloo will be happy.
Leo became an internet sensation after footage of his reaction to an attempted high-value goods-in-transit heist went viral. Stunned by his cool attitude and focused action in a crisis situation, South Africans had an example of what can happen when good people take a stand. With decades of experience in security – first as a policeman, then in the South African Police Service’s Special Task Force, and now providing arms handling and security training in the private sector – Leo has a wealth of knowledge on how to manage life-threatening incidents.
Driven by a desire to empower South Africans and help them claim back their sense of safety, he offers advice for dealing with every risky situation, from how to handle hijackings and road rage, to how to keep your children safe, to the best way to secure your home and business. He also provides comprehensive information about handling firearms and basic first aid.
Leo’s Guide to Not Becoming a Statistic is a guide to living your safest life in South Africa – something which has become increasingly important as our crime statistics continue to rise. Straight-talking and honest – much like Leo himself – it is an easy to use manual that makes keeping safe accessible, with relatable information and easy to implement tips.
Leo says that taking the first step towards securing your safety is the most important, and his book will help you take that step.
In the modern age of urbanisation, the mass population is becoming
progressively reliant on technical infrastructures. These
industrial buildings provide integral services to the general
public including the delivery of energy, information and
communication technologies, and maintenance of transport networks.
The safety and security of these structures is crucial as new
threats are continually emerging. Safety and Security Issues in
Technical Infrastructures is a pivotal reference source that
provides vital research on the modernisation of occupational
security and safety practices within information technology-driven
buildings. While highlighting topics such as explosion process
safety, nanotechnology, and infrastructural risk analysis, this
publication explores current risks and uncertainties and the
raising of comprehensive awareness for experts in this field. This
book is ideally designed for security managers, safety personnel,
civil engineers, architects, researchers, construction
professionals, strategists, educators, material scientists,
property owners, and students.
