The Ohana Way Book

Languages : en
Pages : 196
Book Description
"People leave people." In jobs, more than 7 in 10 of people who quit a job leave because of a boss or organization culture. In volunteer groups, the same is true. With social groups, the numbers are undoubtably higher. What if we could reverse that? Creating a Culture of Community is a key to keeping your community together. Having some organized, easy-to-understand system to do just that is important. That's just what THE OHANA WAY is for you: A powerful toolbox to help people connect and stay connected in a positive, powerful way. THE OHANA WAY BOOK is the complete manual on The Ohana Way. You'll find The Ohana Way Five-By-Five with 25 more chapters diving deep into Oasis, Harmony, Assertiveness, Nobility, and Aloha, plus more chapters explaining how to apply Ohana in your group, organization and family. If you want a short introduction, see THE OHANA WAY REPORT. Here's the really, really short version of what Ohana means, right out of a Disney movie: OHANA - "Ohana means family, and family means no one gets left behind... or forgotten." (Lilo and Stich, 2002) Ohana means family. Family is much more than those related by blood or marriage. It does include them, of course. It also includes friends, calabash cousins, and anyone with whom you share enough in common that you might consider them ohana. One aspect of this shows up in a simple term: "Hawaii." When people connected to the islands do nice things for one another, they sometimes call it simply "Hawaii." When someone used to live in Hawaii but they have left behind that kind of natural generosity common in the islands, they sometimes say "They aren't Hawaii anymore." Ohana means family. Family includes those bonded by affection and something in common. It represents an ideal that we illustrate by using ohana as an acronym. Technically, that means we should always have periods between our latters as in O.H.A.N.A., but we often dispense with the periods and just write it OHANA or even just capitalize Ohana. This way we know we're talking about our five-part acronym.OHANA means: O-OasisH-HarmonyA-AssertivenessN-NobilityA-Aloha Each one of these elements has a more complete, deeper expression than this (which we explore in future chapters). As a starting place, this is what we mean: OASIS - Be a Refreshing Refuge. Being an Oasis and helping create an Ohana Oasis means I always make it better by being here. I help create a refuge from the usual, the annoying and the difficult. HARMONY - Embrace Infinite Diversity in Infinite Combinations Aimed at Greatness. Great music is made from melody and harmony. Many instruments, notes, and singers work together to make all sorts of different and amazing music. Harmony means we don't have to be alike to be together. ASSERTIVENESS - Moving Forward on Purpose with Respect for Others. We Live Life on Purpose. We live assertively, learn assertively and love assertively. We practice assertive listening, assertive relationships, assertive parenting, and assertiveness in any and all areas of life. NOBILITY - Be our Highest and Best Selves. The metaphor of the Royal Knight dives deep into our ideals of princeliness and princessliness in their highest and best forms. We pursue knightly chivalry and samurai bushido in service to high ideals.ALOHA - Love in All Its Many Meanings and Manifestations. Love is I want the best for you, I want to be the best for you, and I want you to have transcendent joy. Aloha also includes hello and goodbye in Hawaiian.

Book Description
This is the story about an alliance between two families that saved the land and preserved the living 'ohana by heroic commitment to what it is to be Hawaiian. Over two centuries, the continuity in family leadership and the persistent use of education and partnership are woven into the 'Ohana's tapestry of life. What emerged is an uncommon alliance that endures to this day. The kanakas overcame illness, an austere new religion and the loss of their lands and birthrights, in the Great Mahele of 1848. Many feel the Hawaiians are a dying race. The future challenge for the Hawaiians and the goal is to pass on the culture and empower today's kanakas to not lose their identity in the face of changing social and economic processes. The 'ohana and the 'aina are the tools kanakas have, to give lyrics to the silence of hope. Education is the tool for that hope.

Book Description
How to overcome barriers blocking us from success? All explained in a new book by author Yossef Ohana. The book, called "Yossef Ohana" brings us the modern story of a young enthusiastic guy called Amos who dreams of becoming a multi-billionaire. Who amongst us does not dream of bags of cash in their bank? We all do! And so do our hero Amos, and he will stop at nothing in his way for the prize. But soon it becomes clear that the sins of our character, including cheating on his fiancé with the occasion girl he meets on-line "blocks" his energy from being positive and denying him of his financial goal. Join Amos in his journey to overcome his biggest obstacle, flunking him on his way to success. This is a story of power, money, sins and betrayals. Certainly each of us can relate to a wash out reality star trying to recruit his strength on the way to the top. Yossef Ohana, the author of the book "Yossef Ohana" is an Israeli actor from Tel-Aviv, who spent his entire life dreaming of getting rich by writing books and this is where he makes his first step to glory, publishing his first book in English with the goal of inspiring and possibly make the world a better place. Yossef Ohana studied acting at the drama academy of London "Star-Tek" and in the actors studio of "Ivana Chubbuck", the spiritual mother of the greatest of Hollywood's actors, who has a studio in Los Angeles and teachers all over the globe, teaching her methods. During these days Yossef Ohana makes his first steps in the field of acting and believes that having faith and even obsession to what you do may help you become a very successful person. The book "Yossef Ohana" Yossef wrote after facing his dream of becoming a successful actor and managing to bring on paper his fears and barriers as well his methods of overcoming them. This is not one of those "self- helping" books, but Yossef Ohana is a big fan of those and has been reading that genre for over 2 decades.
