Throughout the dream, a child speaks to him to search for treasure at the foot of the Egyptian pyramids. He made consultation with a gypsy woman to construe the dream, and to his surprise she articulates that he should go to Egypt.

The conventional and kindhearted merchant teaches Santiago numerous lessons, and Santiago emboldens the merchant to take possibilities with his business. The risks pay off, and Santiago turns into a wealthy man within a year. Please note: This is a summary and analysis of Paulo Coelho' s book The Alchemist. ungekürzt. Language: English.

    The Universal Christ
    I cannot put this book down' - BONO 'One of the most influential speakers in the world' - OPRAH WINFREY In his decades as a globally recognized teacher, Richard Rohr has helped millions realize what is at stake in matters of faith and spirituality. Yet Rohr has never written on the most perennially talked about topic in Christianity: Jesus. Most know who Jesus was, but who was Christ? Is the word simply Jesus' last name? Too often, Rohr writes, our understanding has been limited by culture, religious squabbling, and the human tendency to put ourselves at the centre. Drawing on scripture, history and spiritual practice, Rohr articulates a transformative view of Jesus Christ as a portrait of God's constant, unfolding work in the world. 'God loves things by becoming them,' he writes, and Jesus' life was meant to declare that humanity has never been separate from God - except by its own negative choice. When we recover this fundamental truth, faith becomes less about proving Jesus was God, and more about learning to recognize the Creator's presence all around us and in everyone we meet. Thought-provoking, practical and full of deep hope and vision, The Universal Christ is a landmark book from one of our most beloved spiritual writers, and an invitation to contemplate how God liberates and loves all that is.

    Expert
    What do lace makers share with pulmonary surgeons? Saville Row tailors with molecular scientists? Jazz musicians with fighter pilots? Seemingly, they have little in common, other than being skilled at what they do. But the expert on experts, Professor Roger Kneebone, has spent his life finding the points of connection. As he shows, while the outcome is always different, the journey to expertise is always the same.From 'doing time' as an Apprentice, knowing nothing and learning by copying how things are already done, through setting out on your own as a Journeyman, developing your own voice and taking responsibility for your work, to finally becoming a Master and refining your knowledge through passing it on to future generations, Kneebone articulates a path we're all following - and there's comfort in locating yourself, understanding how far there is to go, and seeing how far you've come.Drawing on cutting-edge research, including his own work with a variety of extraordinary experts from taxidermists to neurosurgeons, and a tradition of learning established in medieval workshops, in this ground-breaking book, Professor Kneebone reveals with colour and panache the symbiotic system that creates and sustains experts, whatever their field, and explains how you can become one yourself, whether you're learning a language, giving a presentation, or simply becoming the person you want to be.

    Hieroglyphics and Other Essays
    Arthur Machen was a hugely prolific essayist and journalist. In a career that spanned more than half a century, he wrote thousands of articles for such magazines and newspapers as the London Evening News, John O'London's Weekly, and the Independent. In these essays he articulates his distinctive mystical and religiously based outlook. Accusing science and rationalism of impoverishing the human imagination, he was an untiring defender of the essential mystery of the cosmos. In his literary criticism-embodied in the treatise Hieroglyphics (1902) and in many separate essays-Machen made a frequent discussion between mere "reading matter" and genuine literature. The former comprised mundane realism; the latter the world of romance, fantasy, and the supernatural. While being skeptical of spiritualist phenomena, he found in the work of Edgar Allan Poe, Algernon Blackwood, Walter de la Mare, and other writers a vital expression of the wonders and terrors that humanity encounters even in everyday life. This volume presents a robust selection of Machen's essays, detailing his philosophical and literary vision. It is a significant adjunct to his weird fiction, showing how the principles he outlined in his essays were applied to the supernatural tales he wrote over his lifetime. The volume has been edited by S. T. Joshi, a leading authority on Machen and the editor of Machen's colleced fiction as published by Hippocampus Press.

    A Mind Without Barriers Creates Ideas Without Limitations [The Early Preaching Years], Hörbuch, Digital, 39min
    In this formative and classic message from the Intellect Inspire archives of 1997, a young Rodney Sampson articulates a dynamic and challenging message entitled “A Mind Without Barriers Creates Ideas Without Limitations”. As a medical student at The Pennsylvania University College of Medicine, Sampson was introduced to the concept of the “blood brain barrier”. This barrier protects the brain, it’s white and gray matter content, nerves, blood vessels; and most importantly - the intangible mind. If this barrier is breached, it can cause sickness and disease to manifest in other organs and systems in the body. Mental illness can result. However, if we strengthen and protect the brain [and our mind] from foreign agents and negative thoughts, we allow for innovative and creative ideas to flow and manifest! What started as a simple thought in an anatomy lab has birthed into a consciousness that rarely escapes Sampson’s messages to this very day. To this end, we ask the question, “What barriers are you allowing to limit you?" Rodney Sampson is an American entrepreneur, investor, author & consecrated bishop who focuses on shaping innovative economic policy and opportunities throughout all sectors of relevant society and culture. His episcopal affiliations are with The International Bishop's Conference and Kingdom Manifestation. A serial entrepreneur, Sampson co-founded Multicast Media Networks [Streamingfaith.com] in 2000, Intellect in 2002, Intellect Inspire in 2006, Legacy Opportunity Fund in 2007 & EFactor in 2008. At present, Sampson is building Legacy Opportunity Fund II, a US based BDC designed to provide underserved communities with economic dignity, knowledge and access to investment opportunities traditionally reserved for accredited, wealthy and institutional investors. He also serves on the corporate boards and management of a disruptive technology start-up, a NY based merchant investment bank and home based business. Sampson is regular Language: English.

    Confessions from Your Token Black Colleague: True Stories & Candid Conversations About Equity & Inclusion in the Workplace , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 205min
    In the aftermath of the George Floyd killing in 2020, as US society takes a deep look at its racist underpinnings, corporations are among the institutions being called on to revamp their treatment of Black people. Confessions from Your Token Black Colleague: True Stories and Candid Conversations About Equity and Inclusion in the Workplace provides a firsthand account of the discrimination endured by author Tali Lavarry while working for corporations that failed to rise to the occasion when it came to creating and fostering a sustainable work environment for diverse hires. Revealing the injustices and hypocrisy that prevails, she makes a case for business leaders to examine their own unacknowledged biases and take action to address systemic racism. Through conversations with progressive white business leaders and professionals in the fields of human resources and diversity and inclusion, with their help, she demonstrates what has to be done to create real solutions that protect and fortify people of color and other marginalized groups.Part memoir and part blueprint for change, this book lays bare the mechanisms of workplace racism, from microaggressions to false accusations. Relentless oppression, at a series of corporate jobs, led to her nervous breakdown and confinement to a psych ward. This experience served as the catalyst for a period of soul-searching that resulted in the biggest revelation of her life and the formation of her own diversity, equity, and inclusion consultancy. In this book, she articulates the attitudes and behaviors of corporate staff that need changing if equity is to be achieved. Through a series of “Proposals for Atonement and Reconciliation”, she introduces a strategy that opens the door to the possibility of intrinsic change. ungekürzt. Language: English.

    On Being Awesome: A Unified Theory of How Not to Suck , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 309min
    A lively philosophical exploration of what it means to be awesome and not suck, and a plea for more awesomeness in our personal, social, and public lives In this engaging, fun, and astute investigation of a thoroughly contemporary condition, philosopher and former pro skater Nick Riggle argues that our collective interest in being awesome (and not sucking) marks a new era in American culture, one that is shaped by relatively recent social, political, and technological shifts. At the core of his work is the idea that awesome people are exemplars of social creativity. We suck when we foil their attempts at creative community building. To be down, game, chill, basic, wack, or a preference dictator are just a handful of ways we can create, respond to, or fail to take up social openings in the office, in public, or with our friends and loved ones. What can the invention of the high five and the history of "cool" tell us about the origins of awesome? Can introverts be awesome? How do our expectations of awesome relate to race, gender, and sexuality? How is our desire for awesomeness shaping our cultural landscape - art, altruism, athletics, and public life? These are just a few of the questions Riggle explores in this accessible, philosophical road trip through the ethos of our time. On Being Awesome articulates a singular and gripping cultural ideal and provides a new and inspiring framework for understanding friendship, success, and happiness in our everyday lives. Bonus PDF included with awesomeness/suckiness chart PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio. ungekürzt.
