Our thought lives have incredible power over our mental, emotional, and even physical well-being. In fact, our thoughts can either limit us to what we believe we can do or release us to experience abilities well beyond our expectations. When we choose a mindset that extends our abilities rather than placing limits on ourselves, we will experience greater intellectual satisfaction, emotional control, and physical health. The only question is . . . how?

Backed by up-to-date scientific research and biblical insight, Dr. Caroline Leaf empowers readers to take control of their thoughts in order to take control of their lives. In this practical book, readers will learn to use

• The 5-step Switch on Your Brain Learning Program, to build memory and learn effectively
• The Gift Profile, to discover the unique way they process information
• The Mindfulness Guide, to optimize their thought life and find their inner resilience

Hoe en wat ons dink, het ’n geweldige invloed op ons verstandelike, emosionele en selfs fisieke welsyn. Om die waarheid te sê, ons denke kan ons beperk tot dit wat ons glo ons kan doen, of dit kan ons dinge laat ervaar waarvan ons nooit kon droom nie. Wanneer ons ’n denkwyse kies wat ons vermoëns verruim, sal ons groter intellektuele satisfaksie, emosionele beheer en fisieke gesondheid ervaar. Die vraag is net: Hoe?

There are a lot of personality and intelligence tests out there designed to label you and put you in a particular box. But Dr. Caroline Leaf says there's much more to you than a personality profile can capture. In fact, you cannot be categorized!

In this fascinating book, she takes readers through seven steps to rediscover and unlock their unique design--the brilliantly original way each person thinks, feels, relates, and makes choices--freeing them from comparison, envy, and jealousy, which destroy brain tissue. Readers learn to be aware of what's going on in their own minds and bodies, to lean in to their own experience rather than trying to forcefully change it, and to redefine what success means to them. Released from the suffocating box of expectations, they'll embrace their true identity and develop a clear sense of divine purpose in their lives.

Knowing and understanding our identity empowers our choices. Unlocking one's you quotient is not optional--it is essential.

Once upon a time in Spain, there was a little bull and his name was Ferdinand . . . Unlike all the other little bulls - who run, jump, and butt their heads together in fights - Ferdinand would rather sit under his favourite cork tree and smell the flowers. So what will happen when Ferdinand is picked for the bull fights in Madrid? Beloved all over the world for its timeless message of peace, tolerance and the courage to be yourself, this truly classic story has never been out of print in the US since its release in 1936. Hitherto unpublished in the UK and now a major motion picture.

In the gripping memoir The Grey Man, Leaf Lynch details his journey from a childhood where he battled physically and mentally with his violent, narcissistic, drunken father to a stint in the British Airborne Forces where he found a family and strength of character he maintains to this day.

Born in Aldershot, England, Lynch provides a self-disclosing account of a life where events beyond his control forced him to create his own destiny. Constantly told by his father that he was too old or too late to start anything, Lynch reveals how he learned to overcome the verbal abuse and believe in himself. As a teenager, he finds camaraderie in a small time crime organization, but it is only when he is required to enlist in the British Army that he finds the foundation he has been missing for so long.

From the wise words he heard from RSM Col Chapman, "Practice does not make perfect ... perfect practice makes perfect," to the Airborne Warrior character-building exercises, Lynch chronicles every hair-raising and humorous adventure with an inspirational message, ultimately sharing how he eventually found peace at the end of a long and challenging journey through the best and the worst of this world.
