"How to Master the Art of Being the Worst Salesperson: Funny Failings to Future Success is a humorous yet insightful collection of true, laugh-out-loud business stories that expose the unfortunate (and often cringe-worthy) realities of poor sales practices. Featuring contributions from senior executives at Fortune 50 companies, this book illustrates how misguided sales and leadership decisions can lead to disastrous outcomes for both the individual and the company. But don't worry-it's not all doom and gloom! The author lightheartedly shows how understanding and correcting those mistakes can lead to extraordinary success.
The book kicks off with fifteen hilariously painful and humbling true stories, serving as a reminder that laughter is often the best way to learn from failure. In the later chapters, you'll find practical, action-oriented techniques and insights that can be immediately applied-whether you're part of a massive sales team or a solopreneur. The ultimate challenge for readers: honestly reflect on these stories, recognize where your own sales or leadership practices could improve, and turn those cringe-worthy moments into powerful success."
"Can Ani and Taryn stop Treyder’s experiments? And will they find the Stones of Teramar? As Taryn struggles to understand who he is and who he is to become, he and Ani must lead the way in thwarting Treyder’s experiments before they result in unimaginable harm. As if that were not enough, Taryn must not only find the Stone destined for him, he is driven to find the other two Stones of Teramar and their Singers. The Song of Teaching cannot be sung until all three Teramaran Stones and their Singers have been located. And without that song, knowledge of the shared past, future, and place of origin of those on Lrakira and Teramar may be lost. It will take the combined efforts of Ani, Taryn, Renloret, Yenne, and many others to pull off. And there is no time to waste."
"This epic space opera continues the adventures of self discovery begun in The Blood. Still struggling with her new identity as the Singer for the Anyala Stone, Ani returns to her home world in search of her twin, known as The Balance. The Anyala Stone has been mortally injured by her own grandmother and only The Balance can save it. Stubbornly, Ani refuses the assistance offered by her father who is barely ten years older than she due to the Stones' ruined time song, because his unexpected presence on Teramar will complicate the search. And after twenty years, Ani is barely able to admit that her father is alive. She chooses to return to Teramar with her telepathic canine, Kela, and Lrakiran pilot Renloret to enlist the help of Taryn, the sheriff of Star Valley, to sift through twenty-five years of lies and secrets on their search. Then as they are getting close to discovering the twin''s identity, the unimaginable happens and Taryn's life is endangered. Must Ani choose between saving her best friend or saving the life of an alien? Once again time is running out. Will the Anyala Stone die before the twin can be found and brought to Lrakira? Will the twin, if found, accept their new identity and travel the stars to save the life of an alien creature?What more does the prophecy within the first song have in store for the people of Lrakira and Teramar?"
"In this tender Edwardian tale of childhood, loss, and imagination, I Wish I Were a Dog follows young Dicky Brook—a sensitive boy who struggles to meet the expectations of his strict father and brilliant siblings. Living in a home shaped by grief and duty, Dicky finds solace only in the unconditional love of Jasper, the family spaniel.
When a particularly difficult day leaves Dicky feeling worthless and misunderstood, he begins to daydream of a simpler life—one where he could be a dog, free from judgment and failure. As his imagination takes over, Dicky journeys into a surreal, emotional world where dreams and reality blur.
Rich with emotional nuance and written with gentle irony, this poignant short story explores the deep inner world of a child longing for comfort, understanding, and identity. Narrated with warmth and grace by Martine Baruch, I Wish I Were a Dog is a heartfelt, introspective classic for listeners of all ages."
"James the dog is very silly. He likes to chase squirrels and eat food off the table.
He and his fellow dogs would get in trouble quite a bit.
One day a Great Dane named Shepherd came to visit.
Would James want to change his ways? Would James stop eating food from the table?
The story is based on the book of Mark, Chapter 4, versus 3 to 8. Follow the story of James to see if he can resist causing trouble. "
"The author has spent his life studying the Japanese martial art of Aikido. When looking for teachers, he asks questions about the meaning of sacrifice, the physical and mental limits that can be exceeded.
This is a book about passion and the cost of following your dreams. With beautiful illustrations by Kim Soung (USA) - former Disney illustrator and an intriguing cover by Kuba Krawczyk (Poland), the book brings a new quality to the message of universal importance of the relationship between teacher and student. While it describes the martial arts world, this book does ask fundamental questions for which there are no simple answers, and the value is just asking these questions.
