Описание: "The Life of Your Choice" takes you along on the journey of Daniel Bax, a man who had a terrible motorcycle crash and lost everything except his will---which turned out to be the most important thing he had. Daniel's journey of self-discovery and determination will inspire you to action, to change your life into the life of your choice. What makes you different from the miracle man? Nothing---except, perhaps, a decision. This is the story of a man who miraculously woke up after a catastrophic accident left him unable to talk or eat, with his left side completely paralyzed, and with no memories of his past or even who he was. He spent the next five years piecing together his past and relearning how to speak, eat, and walk---all things that the doctors had assured his family he would never do again. This book gives us his story and the methods he used to achieve what the conventional wisdom said was impossible, and serves as a guide for the readers to replicate his success in their own lives. Daniel Bax is an inspirational keynote speaker and breakthrough recovery strategist for the medical industry and for nonprofit organizations dedicated to helping people with acquired brain injury and other challenges. He shares his message with all people who desire a change in their life and have reached the point where they are willing to do whatever that change requires of them. Daniel truly inspires people and gives them hope while inciting them to take action. He is a guest speaker for hospitals, educational institutions, insurance companies, and acquired brain injury health-care institutions. "The Life of Your Choice" will show you how, like Daniel Bax, you can be the new Miracle Man or Wonder Woman.

Описание: In a day and age when generals were wealthy, educated, upper class aristocrats; Dan Morgan went from an illiterate, penniless runaway to become a brigadier general and revolutionary war hero. His story is a remarkable tale of America's breaking away from the class structure of Britain's social system as much as it is the story of a forgotten Revolutionary War hero. The American frontier's influence in creating a totally new system is evident. Morgan breaks the mold. Unfortunately, he is almost forgotten by most Americans. This book attempts to re-introduce the reader to America's most able battlefield commander and hero of two of the most critical battles of the Revolution - Saratoga and the Cowpens. It challenges the notion that Benedict Arnold should hold that title, not counting his treason late in the war as many revisionist historians claim. Does the dashing Arnold really deserve this title? The book lets readers decide for themselves.Morgan was the officer militiamen would stand and fight for; unlike other Generals like Gates and even Washington. He rewrites the way an officer should handle his men and designs the most brilliant victory of the war. Using his usual historical fiction style, R. W. Hamilton brings Morgan's character to life in a way non-history buffs can enjoy while staying close to the facts. Come back to an age where wealth and social position dominated and and see how a poor young boy would grow up on a wild frontier and change not only himself but also a nation. In the final chapter the author makes his case for why Morgan has been forgotten. The next time you are in the Rotunda of our nation's capital and watch the people viewing the huge painting by John Trumbull titled, "Burgoyne's Surrender At Saratoga". Ask them if they know who is the man in the white buckskin outfit prominently portrayed in the picture? If they don't know, tell them with pride that he is Daniel Morgan - hero of our war for independence.
Описание: DISCOVERING LEADERSHIP... Never Pass Up A Good Crisis "I have known Dan for fifteen years and observed him in tough combat; he was invariably impressive. His brother, David, has also operated in dangerous environments, leading first responders in a host of tough missions. Their experiences--and stories--are not just compelling but full of insight for every generation at every level of responsibility." --General David H. Petraeus (US Army, Ret.), former commander of US Central Command and of US and coalition forces in both Iraq and Afghanistan "In Chasing the White Rabbit, Dan and Dave remind us that leadership is about doing, not talking; about clarity, not confusion; and about focus, not chaos. They generously interweave their life experiences and insights, bringing military, commercial, and emergency responder insights and perspectives at every turn. I have known Dave for over ten years as a student, mentee, client, and friend, and at every turn he has exhibited wisdom, empathy, reliability, and compassion for everything that he undertakes--that work ethic and character comes through loud and clear in this remarkable book." --Andrew J. Sherman, senior partner, Jones Day and author of twenty-six books on business growth, governance, and entrepreneurship; adjunct professor, University of Maryland Smith School of Business and Georgetown University Law

This guidebook gives you clear, straightforward tips and techniques to make you a confident, effective briefer who will be invited back by your audiences. About the Author Dr. Edward Mickolus is the President of Vinyard Software, Inc. He served a 33-year career with the Central Intelligence Agency, has written 30 books, and has taught intelligence tradecraft courses at numerous federal agencies. "I loved the book and wish I had it 40 years ago Very comprehensive and while somewhat slanted towards intelligence briefings (no surprise there), I think it provides valuable information for any setting. It was informative and a pleasure to read. Loved the mnemonic SUCCESS. "Know your audience" is so critical." --Robert M. Heffernan, Lt.Col., USAF (Retired), former Command Briefing Officer, HQ 13th AF, who briefed General Norman Schwarzkopf "Where was this book when I was a young, introverted CIA analyst stumbling over my words? It took me many painful years to learn all of the things covered so well here by Ed Mickolus--from strategies for handling nerves to follow-up after the briefing. Skill at briefing can put your career on the fast track. Lack of skill can sink it even faster. This book is a must-read for anyone who must face a conference table full of VIPs. It will even tell you why your hands are sweating." --Susan Hasler, former speechwriter for three Directors of Central Intelligence and author of Intelligence, Project Half Sheep, and The Flat Bureaucrat "Dr. Mickolus is a sure-footed guide to the techniques for effective oral presentations and careful study of this book will repay the reader many times over." --Dr. Michael D. Smith quondam briefer of The President's Daily Brief

Описание:
No Matter Where You Stand Today, Your Next Step Can Be Into Greatness Are you ready to make your life a success? Let author, entrepreneur, and motivational speaker Daniel Gutierrez guide you to the greatness you've always dreamed of. "Accepting your greatness means taking a good look at yourself," Daniel says. "Most of my life I ran from who I was, and wanted to be something I wasn't. I wanted to be taller, faster, better looking, whiter---everything but me. Over time, however, this is what I've learned: accepting your greatness means to transform your way of thinking. "Stepping into Greatness" is about understanding that you are created in the image of greatness, and that is enough. It is about looking deep inside at the hurt and the pain and realizing that a lot of the things we assume about ourselves just aren't true. I wasn't a failure, although I had failed many times. Accepting your greatness is about self-love, self-acceptance, self-realization, and ending the struggle and competition with yourself. What we believe, what we think, what we perceive---whether good or bad---is the core of our power and within us. Harnessing that power to work for us is what transformation is all about. It creates our reality, our vision, our purpose, and our ultimate success. Yes, we have lived lives of joy and pain, lessons and disasters, rewards and temptations. Yes, we have met people who inspire us and others whose moral compasses do not align with our own. To become the "master of your fate" or the "captain of your soul," we must take responsibility and accountability for the experiences and choices within our journey. Your life, your loves, your passion, your work---all can bring the joy that propels you forward in a way that inspires, encourages, and aspires to greater things. Success is waiting to happen....just take that first step into your greatness now.
