Success Breakthroughs

Languages : en
Pages : 322
Book Description
There have been countless books written on Success. The word success implies a desirable outcome from someone's actions. As we know, success is the satisfaction we receive from attaining our goals. . . and most of us have different goals. The methods used to attain goals are typically multi-faceted. They could be some combination of knowledge, inventing a product or developing a service, helping a cause that is near and dear to your heart, fame and fortune, or maybe coaching and guiding others to their goals in life. Then again, your success breakthrough may be in accomplishing something totally different that will serve others in good stead. Note that in every case, success has a beginning and an end, and nothing starts without action. Thomas Edison's quotation that he had not failed, but rather found 10,000 ways that didn't work, serves to remind us that perseverance and action are two of the essential qualities needed for Success Breakthroughs. Then again, you can start with a goal in mind, but if you never finish, the unattained-goal is like yet another asteroid floating in space - matter without a home or meaning to us. The CelebrityExperts(R) in this book have enjoyed their successes and learned from their failures. They have found a path to Success Breakthroughs. With guidance from them, you can pursue your own goal while using their experiences to light the way. They have a track record and, as Tony Robbins says: ..".success leaves clues " There are no secrets to success. It is the result of preparation, hard work, and learning from failure. Colin Powell

Foreign Policy Breakthroughs
Author: Robert L. Hutchings
Publisher:
ISBN: 0190226110
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 299
Book Description
Diplomacy is essential to the conduct of foreign policy and international business in the twenty-first century. Yet, few international actors are trained to understand or practice effective diplomacy. Poor diplomacy has contributed to repeated setbacks for the United States and other major powers in the last decade. Drawing on deep historical research, this book aims to 'reinvent' diplomacy for our current era. The original and comparative research provides a foundation for thinking about what successful outreach, negotiation, and relationship-building with foreign actors should look like. Instead of focusing only on failures, as most studies do, this one interrogates success. The book provides a framework for defining successful diplomacy and implementing it in diverse contexts. Chapters analyze the activities of diverse diplomats (including state and non-state actors) in enduring cases, including: post-WWII relief, the rise of the non-aligned movement, the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty, the U.S. opening to China, the Camp David Accords, the reunification of Germany, the creation of the European Union, the completion of the North American Free Trade Agreement, and relief aid to pre-2001 Afghanistan. The cases are diverse and historical, but they are written with an eye toward contemporary challenges and opportunities. The book closes with systematic reflections on how current diplomats can improve their activities abroad. Foreign Policy Breakthroughs offers rigorous historical insights for present policy.

Big Little Breakthroughs
Author: Josh Linkner
Publisher: Post Hill Press
ISBN: 1642936782
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 262
Book Description
The pressure to generate big ideas can feel overwhelming. We know that bold innovations are critical in these disruptive and competitive times, but when it comes to breakthrough thinking, we often freeze up. Instead of shooting for a $10-billion payday or a Nobel Prize, the most prolific innovators focus on Big Little Breakthroughs—small creative acts that unlock massive rewards over time. By cultivating daily micro-innovations, individuals and organizations are better equipped to tackle tough challenges and seize transformational opportunities. How did a convicted drug dealer launch and scale a massively successful fitness company? What core mindset drove LEGO to become the largest toy company in the world? How did a Pakistani couple challenge the global athletic shoe industry? What simple habits led Lady Gaga, Banksy, and Lin-Manuel Miranda to their remarkable success? Big Little Breakthroughs isn’t just for propeller-head inventors, fancy-pants CEOs, or hoodie-donning tech billionaires. Rather, it’s a surpassingly simple system to help everyday people become everyday innovators.

Breakthroughs
Author: Keith Nelson
Publisher: Morgan James Publishing
ISBN: 1631956701
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 423
Book Description
Breakthroughs show readers the world of Tricky Mixes as key pathways to breakthrough advances--estimates of human potential may never be the same again. Dynamic Systems theories and research provide the backbone concepts for Breakthroughs. Yet, readers discover that new Dynamic Mixes reveal untapped human potential in everyday situations not just in rigorous scientific studies. Individuals, small groups, and large organizations often get "stuck" in their progress by failing to respect and explore the complex interacting factors impacting their situations. Breakthroughs present countless examples which reveal that variants of the same dynamic processes underlie being stuck, versus progressing at modest rates, or advancing at turbo speeds. These examples and events are drawn from research with Keith E. Nelson’s colleagues plus many independent labs around the world, as well as from first-person episodes of many kinds and from many sources. New cross-domain explorations and new insights propel readers into much higher levels of creativity, innovation, rapid learning, social problem solving, curiosity, and life balance. The Dynamic Tricky Mix perspective in most contexts helps shake up and improve paths toward solutions. In times of crisis, as in the Covid-19 pandemic, it becomes especially important to bring this kind of thinking to bear.
