Winston Churchill: A Life of Inspiration , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 108min
We shall fight on the beaches, we shall fight on the landing grounds, we shall fight on the fields... we shall never surrender. - Winston Churchill Do you want to know why Winston Churchill was one of the most successful and inspirational leaders of the 20th century? In Winston Churchill: A Life of Inspiration, we look at both Churchill's life in the military and his much-celebrated life in politics to better understand how he became one of the greatest British personalities in modern history. Was it because of his military achievements? Was it because he came from an aristocratic family? Was it because he convinced the world that Hitler must be defeated? This book explains Churchill's roots and how they shaped his career later in life. Without much prodding, it was as if his life was meant to be in the military and political arena right from the start. From his first attempt to be elected for a seat in the Parliament, to his iconic role as Prime Minister, this book explains how Churchill used his power to convince his fellow Brits that they must all come together to fight the oncoming German onslaught. He had single-handedly awoken the British spirit and eventually, the world. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Tom Taverna.

In the Palm of His Hand , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 346min
When two very different worlds collide...Hailey is a palm reader and a fortune teller, complete with crystal balls and tarot cards in her little shop in the French Quarter of New Orleans. She is a throwback to the '60s, with her boho style and long, blonde hair. Joshua is a marketing guy - a handsome business type - who has been seeing Hailey professionally for over a year. She predicted his promotion, that he'd find the perfect condo, and just about everything that's happened in his life recently. But he is ready to find his soulmate, and Hailey hasn't quite been able to tell him about her, except that there will be someone in his future. They are as different as day and night, but Hailey has fallen in love with Josh. She knows it can never happen, and it would be unethical for her to predict that she was his soulmate. Josh is attracted to her, too, even though she's just not his type. But when they begin to go out as friends, they soon discover they have much more in common than they realized. When a lifelong dream that Josh thought was out of his reach becomes a possibility, will he have to choose between that and his new love? Publisher's note: This sweet romance contains a theme of power exchange. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Tom Taverna.

The Water and the Wine: The Story of Leonard Cohen and Marianne Ihlen on Hydra, Greece , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 558min
The Water and the Wine is set on the Greek island of Hydra in a '60s artistic community. The author lived there as a child. The main focus is on Leonard Cohen and his lover/muse, Marianne Ihlen. Other real characters are Australian writers Charmian Clift and George Johnston, whose marriage is volatile. Norman Peterson is an American sculptor who makes works out of objects he finds. Each night, at Douskos Taverna, the artists and writers meet and discuss their ideas about life, art, philosophy, and religion. They are tolerated and accepted by the local Greek islanders, many of whom also feature in this book. The novel mixes fact and fiction: The Silver family (loosely based on the author's own family) arrive on the island and are drawn into a world of creativity and excitement but also infidelity, jealousy, and dysfunctional relationships. The book explores the effect on the children of this lifestyle, the tensions between the men and the women, the conflict between wanting to create and being hindered by domestic responsibilities, and how financial pressures can hinder one's freedom. The beauty of the island, the flowers and goats, the mules that transport people and goods, the Greek food and landscape, all provide an antidote to the human instability. Ultimately, the novel asks the question: What is the price of creativity? ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Donald Davenport.

Leadership Principles: Everything You Need to Know to Inspire, Motivate, and Lead! , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 42min

Tall and beautiful helps with persuasion, and that is only one principle in leadership. There are many more, and they all can be taught. How do you teach leadership? You could take a class, buy several opinionated books by authors who've "been there", or participate in leadership seminars, workshops, or programs sponsored by your company - if they are available. These cost too much, and in the end the principles of leadership are the same ones taught decades ago. This audiobook is all you need to learn the key principles of leadership and for pennies on the dollar compared to what's out there. In this audiobook you'll learn the theories and principles of motivation, decision making, influencing others, leading a team, and building your network for success. The Concise Reads Business Success series is a collection of short audiobook material that highlights important concepts in business education that every student, business owner, and entrepreneur should know - from accounting and incorporating, to building a robust business plan, and managing operations. We hope you enjoy Peter's easy-to-listen-to explanations. The affordable pricing makes this series available to anyone willing to learn, and the concise aspect makes it so it does not take more than a single day to learn or a single weekend to master.

If you have been victimized, undermined, underrated, or devalued by people in positions of authority or who were bigger and stronger than you, this audiobook is for you. First and foremost, you are not weaker or inferior to anyone. God is no respecter of persons. Which means he will defend you and anyone else that calls on Him. Whether you know Him personally now or not. Once you realize that God has always been there for you, you will never feel powerless again. Victorious! focuses on bullies found in the bible who tried to oppress, silence, victimize, harass, and destroy ordinary people.

God delivered ordinary people from bully bosses, family bullies, tyrants, oppressors, bully co-workers, school yard bullies, and mean girls. Each and every bully thought that they were more powerful, smarter, or better than everyone else. They felt a false sense of entitlement and that no one could bring them down. Well, each one of them met their match when God showed up and showed out! See how God handled them and be inspired...Because He will do the same for you!

Pathways: Searching for Love, Volume 1 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 425min
This story follows the life of a man from the age of three to the age of 70. It is a story of love and tragedy. It is the quest of a man searching for love. The death of his mother, when he was three years old, and the absence of his father for the first seven years of his life, sets the stage for the choices he makes throughout his life. The story begins in the late 40s, early 50s, and progresses to present day. Early in this book, scenes depict his living in a very poor environment. Fourteen people lived in a shack on the poor side of town. Good food and clothing were scarce. Oversight, discipline, and love were not part of his early life. Be patient as an old man reflects on his past, and he wonders why he chose the paths he took searching for someone to love him. The early part of this book depicts the environment that molded his character. His undisciplined youth and the puppy loves he encounters in his early years give a slightly comical, yet tender, insight into why he makes the choices he makes later in life. Just as you think you know where this story is going, it takes many twists and turns you do not expect. Tragic things happen to him along the way. He emerges from an abusive childhood to face challenges he is unprepared for. The book is based on a true story. It is unlike any story you have ever heard. ungekürzt. Language: English.
