Extreme Ownership
Author: Jocko Willink
Publisher: St. Martin's Press
ISBN: 125018472X
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 351
Book Description
An updated edition of the blockbuster bestselling leadership book that took America and the world by storm, two U.S. Navy SEAL officers who led the most highly decorated special operations unit of the Iraq War demonstrate how to apply powerful leadership principles from the battlefield to business and life. Sent to the most violent battlefield in Iraq, Jocko Willink and Leif Babin’s SEAL task unit faced a seemingly impossible mission: help U.S. forces secure Ramadi, a city deemed “all but lost.” In gripping firsthand accounts of heroism, tragic loss, and hard-won victories in SEAL Team Three’s Task Unit Bruiser, they learned that leadership—at every level—is the most important factor in whether a team succeeds or fails. Willink and Babin returned home from deployment and instituted SEAL leadership training that helped forge the next generation of SEAL leaders. After departing the SEAL Teams, they launched Echelon Front, a company that teaches these same leadership principles to businesses and organizations. From promising startups to Fortune 500 companies, Babin and Willink have helped scores of clients across a broad range of industries build their own high-performance teams and dominate their battlefields. Now, detailing the mind-set and principles that enable SEAL units to accomplish the most difficult missions in combat, Extreme Ownership shows how to apply them to any team, family or organization. Each chapter focuses on a specific topic such as Cover and Move, Decentralized Command, and Leading Up the Chain, explaining what they are, why they are important, and how to implement them in any leadership environment. A compelling narrative with powerful instruction and direct application, Extreme Ownership revolutionizes business management and challenges leaders everywhere to fulfill their ultimate purpose: lead and win.

Book Description
As an ancient Sumerian god, Sin was one of the most powerful among his pantheon. . . Until the night Artemis brutally stole his godhood and left him for dead. For millennia, this ex-god turned Dark-Hunter has dreamed only of regaining his powers and seeking revenge on Artemis. If only life were that simple. Unfortunately he has bigger fish--or in Sin's case--demons, to fry. The lethal gallu that were buried by his pantheon are now stirring and they are hungry for human flesh. Their goal is to destroy mankind and anyone else who gets in their way. Sin is the only one who can stop them—that is if a certain woman doesn't kill him first. Unfortunately, Sin discovers that now he must rely on her or witness an annihilation of biblical proportions. Enemies have always made strange bedfellows, but never more so than when the fate of the world hangs in the balance. Now a man who knows only betrayal must trust the one person most likely to hand him to the demons. Artemis may have stolen his godhood, but this one has stolen his heart. The only question is will she keep it or feed it to the ones who want him dead?

61 Ways to Attract Women According to 61 Experts
Author: Joshua Strachan
Publisher: ZeroNever
ISBN:
Category : Family & Relationships
Languages : en
Pages : 46
Book Description
Want to become irresistible to women, a center of attention, and an object of desire? The ultimate goal for every man is to attract the woman he needs and the women he wants. The extent of a man’s happiness depends solely on the kind of women he can attract daily. A woman is the only reason a man can change for good, take responsibilities, and be pushed to achieve things bigger than his own imagination. Women do not just add meaning to life; they create life, the life we all dream of. A man can never dream of a fabulous life in his future without including a woman or something that relates to women's existence. The men that choose to ignore this fact about the importance of women tend to become miserable in the end. Women are to be loved and cherished; this love becomes a strong emotion that keeps us on the definite radar. For the love of women, we become fools for love but always make the right decisions because, in the end, love is the only thing that matters. Success, riches, and wealth are the definitions of success that are often contemplated when it comes to attracting women. Success defines you as a man; it makes you charming and powerful. Women love men with power, success, phenomenal demeanor, and care. How to keep the seduced? The charm to attract and keep women resides in the possession of few men. These men may not be physically attractive, but they possess a personality that makes every woman fall. They can attract your girlfriend and they know what they are doing. They know the right button to push to get any woman to bed. They take charge and know the right words to say and at the right moment to keep women coming back. These “supermen” are not familiar with the three magic words. They make women tell them, but they don’t say it. They confuse women everywhere they go, although they keep one that takes care of them, these ones they love dearly. These men have not studied the laws of attraction; they’ve just discovered the ways to effectively keep women excited, to be suspicious and curious about their exceptional personalities. These men have found the essence of life because with these skills they also get the best jobs, influence the right people and accumulate more than enough money to keep them alive, comfortable, increasing their chances of getting the most beautiful women. Some of them have capitalized on these skills so well, they are now the wealthiest, and they control a lot of things that concern society. There is a power accumulated within themselves that makes them extremely influential without trying too hard to be. They seem light-hearted and easy-going, but in the end, accomplish the most complex goal. This book will be about everything you ever wanted, this attractive gem. Some of the ideas from these experts might seem extreme and controversial but they are practical; people like you have used them in simple ways and have achieved the life they want, attracting the women they want anywhere. To make women fight to have you, take advantage of this book and join the real alpha male train.
