Reach & Win your Goals Calmly
This is what this book brings you: You support certified climate protection projects, quickly receive compact information and checklists from experts (overview and press comments in the book preview) as well as advice that has been tested in practice, which also leads to success step by step thanks to AddOn. Because goals make us start with a thing in the first place and get up and continue in case of failure. But as is often the case, first take a deep breath and then hit the ground running. Unfortunately, false ambition has many people too tightly in its grip: They want too much and too fast the wrong thing, but at the same time they lack the ability to develop their own potential. It would often be enough to take a step back and change ingrained behavior patterns, but often enough aggression, conflicts, fear and other negative emotions block the way. It is therefore important not to pursue one's own goals too doggedly and strenuously, but to always remain calm. After all, this also requires the ability to convince other people thanks to charm, rhetorical skills and strategic abilities. So setting goals is important, they just must not seem too big and unattainable, but big enough to be challenging and offer development opportunities. Good goals are smart and feasibility is an important keyword here. Many well-known entrepreneurs and celebrities are united by precisely this point: the ability to develop great visions, to follow them unflinchingly but in a relaxed manner, and also to achieve them. This book shows how this balancing act can be achieved. Good luck and have fun reading. We give you the best possible help on the topics of career, finance, management, personnel work and life assistance. For this purpose, we gather in each book the best experts in their field as authors - detailed biographies in the book - , who give a comprehensive overview of the topic and additionally offer you success planner workbooks in printed form. Our guidebooks are aimed primarily at beginners. Readers who are looking for more in-depth information can get it for free as an add-on with individual content as desired. This concept is made possible by a particularly efficient, innovative digital process. The publisher is also involved in numerous, well-documented charitable projects, e.g. on climate protection, and supports the quality of neural machine learning and international understanding through its translation from German into English. Editor Simone Janson is chairwoman, publisher, and best-selling author. She was also one of the 20 most important German bloggers and columnist of renowned media - more about her in Wikipedia.

Invincible with Success Mindset
This is what this book brings you: you support climate protection, quickly receive compact information and checklists from experts (overview and press comments in the book preview) as well as advice that has been tested in practice, which also leads to success step by step thanks to AddOn. Because being successful professionally as well as privately, fulfilling one's own wishes, having more money and securing one's prosperity in the long term, who would not like that? The way there leads over the correct attitude, evenly the success Mindset. It's not for nothing that Alibaba founder Jack Ma once said "If you want to change the world, you should start with yourself". And this is what needs to be learned, starting with a confident appearance in business and salary negotiations, through assertiveness in important decisions, to financial background knowledge for investing on the stock market. With the right mindset, the dream of financial freedom and passive income can definitely become a reality. But unfortunately, very few people are really familiar with the subject of investing money and opinions about proper financial planning are as many as experts. It is therefore necessary not to lose the overview in the jungle of financial products. Therefore, it makes sense to deal with one's own asset planning in more detail, after all, savings and thus retirement provisions, which are important for retirement, are only destroyed by inflation. We give you the best possible help on the topics of career, finance, management, personnel work and life assistance. For this purpose, we gather in each book the best experts in their field as authors - detailed biographies in the book - , who give a comprehensive overview of the topic and additionally offer you success planner workbooks in printed form.

You have the power to pass down ... a different kind of crown. Speaking from the future, a girl wears a crown made from the rubbish passed down to her by previous generations.
Her Earth is covered by waste, but beneath the landfill she discovers a book of pictures that show her the past - our world as it is now - and she is filled with joy by the beautiful sky, land, sea and creatures that she sees. Alongside her companion horse, she experiences the beauty of our Earth and imagines a world where her crown is no longer made from rubbish, but from an abundance of life. This is a lyrical, stunningly illustrated debut that expresses our need to act now to save the environment, while weaving a positive message about protecting the world we live in.

She had no experience of long-distance hiking and the journey was nothing more than a line on a map. But it held a promise - a promise of piecing together a life that lay in ruins at her feet.

Terry Pratchett: A Life With Footnotes
At the time of his death in 2015, award-winning and bestselling author Sir Terry Pratchett was working on his finest story yet - his own.
The creator of the phenomenally bestselling Discworld series, Terry Pratchett was known and loved around the world for his hugely popular books, his smart satirical humour and the humanity of his campaign work. But that's only part of the picture.
Before his untimely death, Terry was writing a memoir: the story of a boy who aged six was told by his teacher that he would never amount to anything and spent the rest of his life proving him wrong. For Terry lived a life full of astonishing achievements: becoming one of the UK's bestselling and most beloved writers, winning the prestigious Carnegie Medal and being awarded a knighthood.
Now, the book Terry sadly couldn't finish has been written by Rob Wilkins, his former assistant, friend and now head of the Pratchett literary estate. Drawing on his own extensive memories, along with those of the author's family, friends and colleagues, Rob unveils the full picture of Terry's life - from childhood to his astonishing writing career, and how he met and coped with what he called the 'Embuggerance' of Alzheimer's disease.
A deeply moving and personal portrait of the extraordinary life of Sir Terry Pratchett, written with unparalleled insight and filled with funny anecdotes, this is the only official biography of one of our finest authors.
How the Word Is Passed
Beginning in his hometown of New Orleans, Clint Smith leads the reader on an unforgettable tour of monuments and landmarks - those that are honest about the past and those that are not - which offer an intergenerational story of how slavery has been central in shaping a nation's collective history, and our own.
It is the story of the Monticello Plantation in Virginia, the estate where Thomas Jefferson wrote letters espousing the urgent need for liberty while enslaving more than four hundred people. It is the story of the Whitney Plantation, one of the only former plantations devoted to preserving the experience of the enslaved people whose lives and work sustained it. It is the story of Angola, a former plantation-turned-maximum-security prison in Louisiana that is filled with Black men who work across the 18,000-acre land for virtually no pay. And it is the story of Blandford Cemetery, the final resting place of tens of thousands of Confederate soldiers.
A deeply researched and transporting exploration of the legacy of slavery and its imprint on centuries of American history, How the Word Is Passed illustrates how some of our most essential stories are hidden in plain view - whether in places we might drive by on our way to work, holidays such as Juneteenth or entire neighbourhoods like downtown Manhattan, where the brutal history of the trade in enslaved men, women and children has been deeply imprinted.
How the Word is Passed is a landmark book that offers a new understanding of the hopeful role that memory and history can play in making sense of the United States. Chosen as a book of the year by President Barack Obama, The Economist, Time, the New York Times and more, fans of Brit(ish) and Natives will be utterly captivated.
Noise
From the world-leaders in strategic thinking and the multi-million copy bestselling authors of Thinking Fast and Slow and Nudge, the next big book to change the way you think.
Imagine that two doctors in the same city give different diagnoses to identical patients - or that two judges in the same court give different sentences to people who have committed matching crimes. Now imagine that the same doctor and the same judge make different decisions depending on whether it is morning or afternoon, or Monday rather than Wednesday, or they haven't yet had lunch. These are examples of noise: variability in judgements that should be identical.
In Noise, Daniel Kahneman, Olivier Sibony and Cass R. Sunstein show how noise produces errors in many fields, including in medicine, law, public health, economic forecasting, forensic science, child protection, creative strategy, performance review and hiring. And although noise can be found wherever people are making judgements and decisions, individuals and organizations alike commonly ignore its impact, at great cost.
Packed with new ideas, and drawing on the same kind of sharp analysis and breadth of case study that made Thinking, Fast and Slow and Nudge international bestsellers, Noise explains how and why humans are so susceptible to noise and bias in decision-making.
We all make bad judgements more than we think. With a few simple remedies, this groundbreaking book explores what we can do to make better ones.
House of the Deaf Man
Alfonz Trnovsky, a genial and respected general practitioner in Breany, a small (fictitious) town in western Slovakia, spent his whole life pretending to be radiantly happy and contented, while the reality was quite different. He turned a deaf ear to his conscience as the 20th century hurtled by: four political regimes, the Holocaust, the political trials of the 1950s, the secret police before and after the 1968 Soviet-led invasion of Czechoslovakia...and the women he loved. But whose are the bones his son accidentally stumbles on buried in the garden? As he sets out to unravel this mystery, the son discovers other skeletons in his father's cupboard. His quest includes a detour to the Prado in Madrid, where the father's favourite Goya paintings, the Black Series, are now exhibited after being removed from the walls of its original location, known as the Casa del Sordo (House of the Deaf Man).

Notes from Underground
The unnamed narrator of the novel, a former government official, has decided to retire from the world and lead a life of inactivity and contemplation. His fiercely bitter, cynical and witty monologue ranges from general observations and philosophical musings to memorable scenes from his own life, including his obsessive plans to exact revenge on an officer who has shown him disrespect and a dramatic encounter with a prostitute. Seen by many as the first existentialist novel and showcasing the best of Dostoevsky's dry humour, Notes from Underground was a pivotal moment in the development of modern literature and has inspired countless novelists, thinkers and film-makers.
Michael Jordan - A Levegő Ura
,,Hihetetlen alaposság... Még Jordan legnagyobb fanatikusai sem ismerik mindegyik sztorit, amelyeket Lazenby elmesél." NEW YORK TIMES BOOK REVIEW ,,A legjobb Jordan-életrajz, amit eddig írtak." (GoodReads.com) Michael Jordan a világ valaha élt legnagyobb sportolója. Amikor rá, a kosaras legendára gondolnak az emberek, legtöbbüknek a mérkőzéseket eldöntő dobások, a test és a labda tökéletes egyensúlya, a csont nélküli kosarak villannak fel. De nagysága mellett Jordan egy másik oldalára is fény derül, az észak-karolinai Wilmingtonban felnőtt könyörtelen versenyzőre, aki élt-halt a nagy tétet hordozó pillanatokért. Egészen mostanáig nem volt még egy olyan életrajzi könyv, amely ennyire pontosan mutatta volna be Jordan karakterének kettősségét, és nemcsak a sportolót, hanem a pályán kívüli embert is. Roland Lazenby, a kosárlabda-szakértő amerikai sportújságíró 30 évet szentelt arra, hogy kövesse Michael Jordan karrierjét. Szemtanúja volt, ahogy a cingár újoncból azonnal felismerhető globális szupersztár vált, akinek üzleti érzékét és sikereit látva mind a mai napig sok gyerek álma, hogy olyan legyen, ,,mint Mike". Lazenby azonban Jordan egy másik oldalát is megismerte, a szinte soha nem kielégíthető sikeréhséget, amelyet egy rajongó sem érthet meg igazán. E könyv személyiségének mindkét oldalát feltárja, hogy a lehető legpontosabb, legteljesebb képet fesse az emberről, akit Michael Jordannek hívnak.
