Pages : 275

Book Description
The New York Times bestseller that gives readers a paradigm-shattering new way to think about motivation from the author of When: The Scientific Secrets of Perfect Timing Most people believe that the best way to motivate is with rewards like money—the carrot-and-stick approach. That's a mistake, says Daniel H. Pink (author of To Sell Is Human: The Surprising Truth About Motivating Others). In this provocative and persuasive new book, he asserts that the secret to high performance and satisfaction-at work, at school, and at home—is the deeply human need to direct our own lives, to learn and create new things, and to do better by ourselves and our world. Drawing on four decades of scientific research on human motivation, Pink exposes the mismatch between what science knows and what business does—and how that affects every aspect of life. He examines the three elements of true motivation—autonomy, mastery, and purpose-and offers smart and surprising techniques for putting these into action in a unique book that will change how we think and transform how we live.

The Truth about Stories

Author: Thomas King
Publisher: House of Anansi
ISBN: 0887846963
Category : American literature
Languages : en
Pages : 184

Book Description
Winner of the 2003 Trillium Book Award "Stories are wondrous things," award-winning author and scholar Thomas King declares in his 2003 CBC Massey Lectures. "And they are dangerous." Beginning with a traditional Native oral story, King weaves his way through literature and history, religion and politics, popular culture and social protest, gracefully elucidating North America's relationship with its Native peoples. Native culture has deep ties to storytelling, and yet no other North American culture has been the subject of more erroneous stories. The Indian of fact, as King says, bears little resemblance to the literary Indian, the dying Indian, the construct so powerfully and often destructively projected by White North America. With keen perception and wit, King illustrates that stories are the key to, and only hope for, human understanding. He compels us to listen well.

Book Description
A Manual for Holy Relationship, in an uncompromising, comprehensive approach, provides a literal gateway that leads us, step by step, into the actual experience of changeless Love through Holy Relationship. Multi-layered meaning is dispensed throughout, which will unpack itself to the degree that our mind begins to drop its defenses to Love. As long as we fear changeless Love and Union with our brothers, sisters, God and our Holy Self, we will be locked into perpetuating time as suffering through the birth, amnesia, death, and reincarnation cycle. The ego's definition of "love" as special, must be overcome as we awaken to the majesty of God's consistently changeless Love. The Manual contains crucial teachings that point the way to the Love we have always yearned for, but mistakenly feared would cost us too much. When coupled with the undivided Truth as given by Jesus in the Course, there is no power on earth, including death, that can withstand the Holy Relationship's divine transfiguration. Now is the time. The way is clear. Truth and Love will triumph. The Holy Relationship is the means by which we finally learn and demonstrate the Course's #1 miracle principle: There is no order of difficulty in miracles. These are the teachings for our final victory lap!
