Dan Harris

After having a nationally televised panic attack, Dan Harris knew he had to make some changes. A lifelong nonbeliever, he found himself on a bizarre adventure involving a disgraced pastor, a mysterious self-help guru, and a gaggle of brain scientists. Eventually, Harris realized that the source of his problems was the very thing he always thought was his greatest asset: the incessant, insatiable voice in his head, which had propelled him through the ranks of a hypercompetitive business, but had also led him to make the profoundly stupid decisions that provoked his on-air freak-out.Finally, Harris stumbled upon an effective way to rein in that voice, something he always assumed to be either impossible or useless: meditation, a tool that research suggests can do everything from lower your blood pressure to essentially rewire your brain. 10% Happier takes readers on a ride from the outer reaches of neuroscience to the inner sanctum of network news to the bizarre fringes of America’s spiritual scene, and leaves them with a takeaway that could actually change their lives.

Dan Harris offers his own take on how to become a great leader with this informative eBook: Good, Better, Best — Maximizing Your Leadership Ability. Harris’s book begins with an explanation of the differences between leadership and management, the latter being what the author refers to as the attributes of leadership. The comparison of management and leadership is followed by an explanation of the myth of leadership, or everything you thought leadership was but isn’t in reality. After the author takes the opportunity to dispel the preconceived notions readers had about leadership, he can begin to describe leadership through the next several chapters, the titles of which indicate that leadership will be defined through a series of positive character traits.The character traits which the author finds essential to great leadership skills begin with integrity, which is equated with the ability to live honestly. In addition to having integrity, readers are next encouraged to see the ability to delegate as the next topic addressed. Only those who have mastered the ability to delegate will come to realize that they truly are not alone in any endeavor when there is a team which can be led to accomplish the goal together.Great leaders are further encouraged to show humility. Humility is defined by this author as showing strength, yet having compassion. Humility can also be defined as subduing the tendency to show arrogance and/or flaunt one’s superiority. It can become extremely difficult to lead when your subordinates despise you. Counseling on courage follows the chapter on humility, where you will no doubt be advised how there will be times when the going gets tough and you have to motivate the team to keep going.The skill which arguably should be at the top of the list is the focus of the next chapter: developing those great communication skills. How will you lead your team to success if you cannot communicate well? Great communication skills will open doors and smooth over the bumpy portions of the road which lies before you. You will be utterly amazed at the value of having and maintaining positive and efficient communication with everyone with whom you need come in contact.After exploring traits and skill sets, the second half of the book deals with attitude and approach. Positive attitude is combined with an optimistic outlook of knowing you can accomplish your goals. If you believe in your abilities and have the creativity to develop workable solutions for the unexpected challenges to come before you, then surely you will succeed. Interesting from start to finish, How Good, Better, Best — Maximizing Your Leadership Ability is a practical and straightforward self-help title by Dan Harris which is conveniently available in digital eBook form.

A guide from average Christian living to living in the Kingdom of God. This book explains how the Exodus of the Children of Israel is a type of the Christian life. We move from Egypt (Unsaved) through the Red Sea (first baptism) (Salvation) into the wilderness (Discipleship) through the Jordan River (second baptism) (Baptism of the Holy Spirit) and into the Promised Land (the Kingdom of God) This book explains the two aspects of forgiveness and the confusion caused by not discerning the difference between salvation forgiveness and fellowship forgiveness. The whole purpose of this book is to lead Christians out of the wilderness stage of their lives into the Kingdom living stage so they may fully glorify God.

A daily devotional to help lead the seeking Christian into a much deeper walk into the Kingdom of God. "Seek ye first the Kingdom of God and His righteousness and all these things will be added unto you."

**THE NUMBER ONE NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER, OVER A MILLION COPIES SOLD** 'A sceptic's guide to meditation . . . I loved it' - Ruby Wax 'An enormously smart, clear-eyed, brave-hearted, and quite a personal look at the benefits of meditation' - Elizabeth Gilbert, author of Eat Pray Love We all have an inner narrator. It's what has us losing our temper unnecessarily, checking our emails compulsively, eating when we're not hungry, and fixating on the past and the future at the expense of the present. Most of us assume we're stuck with this voice - but Dan Harris stumbled upon an effective way to quiet his mind. After having a nationally televised panic attack on Good Morning America, Harris knew he had to make some changes. A lifelong nonbeliever, he found himself on a bizarre adventure involving a disgraced pastor, a mysterious self-help guru, and a gaggle of brain scientists.

“It’ll be a dawn raid if they think I’m harbouring fugitives. Standard procedure. It's the best chance of catching everyone at home.”“They won’t catch anyone much, what with the world ending at midnight and all.”“Exactly. Joke’s on them.” As though it's not difficult enough, only having 24 hours to find a powerful enough spellcaster to banish a major daemon and prevent the world ending, Martha has to do it with Britain’s paranormal security forces bent on arresting her as an unlicensed magic user.Luckily she’s managed to win Agent Tom Bailey over to her cause and he might just be able to keep her one step ahead of his superiors while she battles her daemons.All Martha’s years of witchcraft not to mention Tom’s unwilling stint as a field agent are about to come to a dramatic culmination but will their combined forces be enough?

This book offers a socio-cultural examination of contemporary creativity studies. Drawing heavily on posthumanist, new materialist and affective theoretics, the author argues in favour of an expansive and sustainable approach to creativity which contributes to an emergent ‘creativity studies’ inter-discipline. It seeks to establish a broader consideration of creativity in socio-culture, that extends beyond, or indeed refutes, the narrowing aperture of entrepreneurship and innovation as synonyms for creativity in economic, cultural and educational contexts and discourses. Drawing on multiple case studies of creative relational and creative ecological empirical research, this book integrates a concern for personal, planetary and geo-political collaboration, as an antidote for ‘innovation for innovation’s sake’.

For twenty years Martha Taggart had been waiting for The the virgin witch who will complete her magical coven and restore the witches' destiny to fight the growing power of an ancient, earth threatening evil.But when The Maiden does appear, it's right under the nose of Tom Bailey, an agent with Britain's paranormal security service. Martha knows if he works out her true identity he's going to arrest her as an unlicensed magic user. And knowing Tom, if he doesn't work out her identity he’s going to end up falling for her.Martha can see only one course of commandeer her son's campervan, drive like hell through the night and get to the girl before Tom takes her freedom or her innocence.

¿Estás demasiado ocupado para meditar? ¿No te sientes capaz de apagar tu cerebro? ¿Tienes curiosidad por el mindfulness pero te sientes mejor en el gimnasio? Entonces éste es tu libro. Dan Harris pensaba que la meditación era para gente que coleccionaba cristales y usaba la palabra 'namaste' sin despeinarse. Pero después de tener un ataque de pánico delante de miles de personas en el canal de televisión ABC, realizó un viaje personal que finalmente le acabó convirtiendo en un firme defensor de la meditación. En este libro, Harris y Jeff Warren, maestro y 'MacGyver de la meditación' se embarcan en un viaje para explicar los mitos, malentendidos y malas experiencias que alejan a la gente de la meditación. Está repleto de ayuda para meditar, todo en un tono ameno y desde luego muy lejano a los típicos gurús con los que poca gente se identifica.
