Publisher: Balboa Press
ISBN:
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 159
Book Description
Crystal Warberg never felt like she fit in. First came love, a career, marriage, and then children. But along the way, she lost who she was in order to fit into the family. She repressed her dreams and discovered the fragility of her mortality. In Stripping Inherited Karma, she offers a realistic and messy look at her inner mind as she processed and cleaned up generations of emotional patterns, inherited karma, and the resulting trauma. In this memoir written from the heart, she journeys from childhood memories to present activities, sharing a reflection of how the events and people in her life made her feel through shifts in consciousness. From mind to paper, Warberg organized, then found patterns beyond her lifetime, discovering the co-dependent relationships she needed to change before her children repeated the same patterns. As Warberg challenged her fears and followed her dreams, her happiness continually increased. In Stripping Inherited Karma, she tells how she has concluded, throughout the last decade, that it’s never too late to change the ending of her story.

Pages : 176
Book Description
How do we advance? As individuals, families, and businesses? As societies, nations, and a species? In a world where it’s said there is nothing new under the sun, we humans are remarkably resourceful at creating new things. The key to innovation is understanding, but not just by using facts, data, and casual observations. Progress demands the profound and useful understanding of a person or a thing, a situation or an issue. And profound and useful understanding that truly effects change is that most elusive of phenomena: insight. How To Be Insightful provides a novel and deeply practical framework that anyone can use to generate more powerful and impactful insights from the increasing volumes of data we all face every day, whatever we do. The framework – the STEP Prism of Insight – has been developed through decades of both practice and training, and the book includes many exercises designed to help strengthen and develop readers’ insight muscles. The book explains the history, psychology, and neuroscience of insight and includes snapshots of insight from international experts in many different fields – psychology and neuroscience, music and acting, forensic science and market research.

Unvanquished
Author: Boutros Boutros-Ghali
Publisher: Random House
ISBN: 0812992040
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 373
Book Description
For years the United States has treated the United Nations as an extension of its own foreign policy, while other member states--especially smaller, less influential countries--have looked to the United Nations to represent their collective interests. This conflict escalated in the fall of 1996, when the United States unilaterally decided to deny Secretary-General Boutros Boutros-Ghali a second term. In this book Boutros-Ghali argues that U.S. policy toward the United Nations threatens the fragile fabric of the international organization. By selectively consulting the Security Council, the United States has frequently condemned the United Nations to the status of scapegoat in international affairs, notably during peacekeeping missions in Bosnia, Somalia, and Rwanda. Meanwhile, the United Nations's financial crisis persists as the United States fails to pay its bills while seeking to further increase its already considerable influence within the organization. In October 1995 President Clinton lavishly praised Boutros-Ghali for his "outstanding leadership," and thanked him for his "vision." Yet, a mere four months later, the Clinton administration decided that Boutros-Ghali would have to go. What happened in that short time to convince the United States that the secretary-general was now a liability? United States domestic electoral politics were decisive: While campaigning for the primaries, Bob Dole was scoring heavily by repeatedly ridiculing Boutros-Ghali. To neutralize Dole's challenge, Clinton denied the controversial secretary-general a second term, vetoing his reelection in the Security Council despite unanimous support from its other members. Boutros-Ghali reveals the dramatic conflict and the personalities involved and considers the future of the United Nations in light of American domination.
